چکیده

the antimicrobial effectiveness of different extracts of chicory (cichorium intybus l.) plant including methanolic, ethylic acetate, chloroformic, and aqueous extracts was evaluated by disk diffusion method. the ethylic acetate extract showed higher antibacterial activity against e. coli compared with others. then, effects of different levels of ethylic acetate extract on growth performance and blood parameters of broilers subjected to high ambient temperature was investigated. the treatments were; a control diet, 3 levels of the chicory ethylic acetate extract (150, 250, and 350 mg/kg feed) and one level of probiotic with 4 replicates of 20 broiler chicks in each. the temperature was increased to 35°c with 50% relative humidity for 5 h daily, starting from 11 d until 42 d of the experimental period. results indicated that inclusion chicory extract at 350 mg/kg and probiotic increased body weight gain and improved feed conversion ratio during 11-24 d and 0-42 d (p < 0.05). there were no significant differences in feed intake of broilers treated with chicory extract and probiotic compared with control. the serum concentrations of triglyceride and very low-density lipoprotein significantly decreased in birds received chicory extract at the levels of 250 and 350 mg/kg feed compared with the other treatments (p < 0.05).  no significant difference was observed between treated groups and control for serum high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein concentrations. it seems that dietary supplementation of chicory ethylic acetate extract at levels higher than 250 mg/kg feed has growth promoting effect which can result in improving growth performance and decreasing blood lipids of broilers exposed to heat stress condition.

Chicory (Cichorium intybus L) As Fibre Source in Pig Diets Effects on Digestibility, Gut Microbiota and Performance

The aim of this thesis was to increase our understanding about chicory (forage and root) as fibre source for pigs, by studying the effects of diets with inclusion of chicory on digestibility, digestion site, performance, gut microbiota and environment. In total 62 pigs were used, including newly weaned and growing intact pigs and growing post valve t-caecum (PVTC)-cannulated pigs. The weaned pi...

In vivo effect of dried chicory root (Cichorium intybus L.) on xenobiotica metabolising cytochrome P450 enzymes in porcine liver.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are widely studied for their involvement in metabolism of drugs and endogenous compounds. In porcine liver, CYP1A2, 2A and 2E1 are important for the metabolism of skatole. Feeding chicory roots to pigs is known to decrease the skatole concentration in plasma and fat. In the present study we investigated the effect of chicory on CYP mRNA and protein expression, as w...
