In order to study the effects of various levels of protein in diet based on total and digestible amino acids on performance and carcass traits of broilers, an experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design with 288 broiler chicks from Cobb 500 strain in 6 treatments, each treatment consist of 3 replicates with 16 chicks per replicate. Treatments were the diets as follow: 1) diet for...

To study the effect of herb ginger powder on performance, carcass characteristics and blood parameters of broilers used from 192 broiler chicks (Ross ) in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 4 replicates ( each replicate of 12 chicks ). All treatments, including different levels of ginger powder ratios of 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5 percent respectively called T1, 2T, T3 and T4 that were ad...

A six-week trial was conducted to study the effect of decreasing dietary crude protein (CP) level on the performance of broilers in hot climatic conditions. Four experimental rations having CP 23 (control group), 22, 21 and 20%, with optimal amino acid balance were prepared. All the four rations were isocaloric having ME 3200 kcal/kg with Energy: Protein (E:P) 139.0, 146.5, 152.4 and 160 in die...

Male broilers (n = 416) were used to compare the efficacy of providing dietary phytase either as a commercial supplement or as a recombinant protein in transformed soybean. From 7 to 21 d of age, broilers were fed a basal diet containing 0.20% nonphytate P (nP) with additional supplementation by fungal phytase as Natuphos or as raw transformed soybeans expressing recombinant phytase at 400, 800...

The aim of this study was to determine whether the age of broilers can influence their response to tannin-rich diets. A total of 340 one-day-old mixed sex Ross 308 broiler chicks were distributed among five experimental groups with four replicates and 17 birds each in a completely randomized design. A high-tannin feedstuff, Oak acorn, was included into diets (at a level of 25%) and fed to birds...

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...

A total of 150 Hy-Line W-36 laying hens at 38 week of age were randomly assigned into 5 dietary treatments and 3 replicates each with 10 birds. Hens were fed diets including: low-selenium diet without selenium supplementation (basal diet), basal diet plus 0.3 ppm Na-selenite, or basal diet plus 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 ppm Sel-Plex. The hens performance, eggshell quality and egg selenium content were e...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of alpha lipoic acid on the performance and serum lipid profile in broiler chicken. In this study, eighty, day-old Venn Cobb commercial broiler chicks broiler chicks were randomly distributed into two treatment groups with four replicates of ten birds each and the birds were fed with experimental diets T1 (Control ration as per BIS [1992]...
