this study was conducted to assess the effect of ginger supplementation on malondialdehyde (mda) level, as an oxidative stress marker, and total antioxidant capacity (tac) in broiler chicks. two hundred male 1-day-old chicks were assigned randomly to four dietary treatments (basal diet as control group and basal diet containing 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 g/kg ginger, respectively), with five replicates a...

two experiments were conducted to determine lysine (lys) requirements of two commercial strains, ross 308 and cobb 500, from 15 to 28d of age. basal diet was formulated to be adequate in all nutrients except for lys. incremental levels of supplemental lys were added to the basal diet generating six experimental treatments in a range from 0.60 to 1.20% digestible lys. birds were randomized acros...

In this experiment 144 Hy-line (W36) laying hens, 65 to 77 weeks of age were separated into 4 treatments with 3 replicates (12 birds per replicate) in a completely randomized design experiment. The grass clipping wastes incorporated into a complete formulated layer diet, consisting on a corn and soybean based diet, were 0, 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5% in 1 to 4 experimental groups. The results showed that...

An experiment has been performed to utilize the wasted and disposed fish from White Nile River after simple heat treatments (Sun drying, roasting, direct boiling and indirect boiling) in layers’ rations from 19 up to 40 weeks to replace the imported concentrate with the levels of 0, 1.5, 3.5 and 5% for all heat treatments. The crude protein of treated fish was 50.75, 52.50, 50.55 and 50.05% for...

to investigate the effects of zataria multiflora boiss essential oil (zmb) on incidence of ascites syndrome and blood parameters of arian broiler chicks, an experiment with 500 one-day-old chicks were conducted. this experiment was based on completely randomized design with 5 treatments including 1) control (basal diet), 2) basal diet with 100 mg/kg probiotic, 3) basal diet with 150 mg/kg avila...

An experiment (3 trials) was conducted to determine the AME(n) of 15 corn co-products obtained from various wet and dry milling plants, and to develop prediction equations for AME(n) based on chemical composition. Co-products included distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS, n = 6), high-protein distillers dried grains (n = 2), corn germ (n = 2), corn germ meal, corn bran with solubles, cor...

The tiered aviary for laying hens includes a floor litter area to promote foraging and dust bathing. Data are needed on hens' use of different litter substrates and effectiveness of substrates in removing excess feather lipids to ensure a suitable litter area. Bovans White hens were housed in commercial-style aviaries with access to one of 3 litter substrates (wood shavings, straw, or plastic t...

The study was conducted to investigate the effects of a multi-enzyme complex (Rovabio Excel) containing carbohydrolase activities on the performance of broiler chickens. Test diets were formulated to include 12% corn distillers dried grain with solubles (DDGS). In total, 1200 Cobb 500 broiler males were randomly assigned to 8 replicate pens of 50 birds per treatment and grown to 45 d of age usi...

ABSTRACT
 This study was conducted to know the use of turmeric (TRM) and red ginger meal (RGM) as source phytobiotics green additive in ration broiler chickens dan effect on nutrient efficiency. One hundred eighty DOC male were randomly alloted into five dietary treatments an opened-system poultry house. The were: basal diet without additives supplementation (control; T1); control + 5g/kg ...

This experiment was carried out to evaluate different levels of peppermint (Mentha piperita) plant powder usage on feed conversion ratio (FCR), body weight (BW), feed intake (FI), body temperature, carcass parts (breast and thigh) and internal organs (liver, heart, gizzard) weights in broiler chicken. A total of 192 broiler chicken were randomly divided into 4 experimental treatments with 4 rep...
