Effect dietary glutamine and vitamin E supplementation on performance, some blood antioxidant indices in broiler chickens under continuous heat stress temperature
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
Effects of different levels of 0.0 glutamine (ZG), 0.25 (LG), 0.50 (MG) and 1 percent (HG) along with 100 mg/kg VE were investigated on performance and blood antioxidant status of broiler chickens under heat stress condition. There was significant differences were observed between the treatments for FI during week 4 the experimental period. No significant difference were observed between the treatments for FI during the whole the experimental periods. There was significant differences were observed between the treatments for BWG during the week 1and 3 the experimental period, wasn’t significant differences between the treatments for BWG during the whole the experimental period. Meanwhile during the whole period FI of VE birds were lower than that of ZG, LG and HG ones. For whole the experimental period, BWG of MG and VE fed birds was higher than that of ZG and LG fed birds. There was significant difference between the treatments for FCR during the week 3 experimental period; there wasn’t significant difference between the treatments for FCR during the whole experimental period. Meanwhile during the whole period FCR of VE and MG birds were lower than that of ZG, LG and HG ones. There wasn't significant differences were observed between the treatments for TAC, MDA, SOD and GPx between the treatments for during experiment period. It was concluded that although dietary Glutamine and VE consumption can improve the performance of broiler chickens during the weekly period under heat stress.
