تأثير الإضافة الغذائية لخميرة الخبز الجافة Saccharomyces cerevisiae إلى العليقة في بعض صفات دم طيور السمان الياباني

Abstract EN

The study was carried out for three months at one of commercial poultry farms, from the 1st March to the 1st of June 2013 to investigate the effect of dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae feed additive on some hematological traits of Japanese Quail.

One hundred and fifty of Japanese Quail birds of sixty days old were utilized and divided into three treatment groups with two replicates (25 birds of each one).

The first group (T1) fed on basal ration without adding of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and represented as control group.

The T2 fed on basal ration plus 0.1% of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and T3 fed on the basal ration with 0.2% of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Results were revealed that the third treatment were significantly (P<0.05) higher in RBC count, Hb, and PCV at 4th, and12th week, while there was no significant (P>0.05) in WBC between the treatments.

Birds receiving 0.2% dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae in (T3) had higher total protein and significantly decreased (P<0.05) of cholesterol and uric acid concentration, with no significant ( P>0.05) changes of GPT, and GOT enzymes at 4th, and 12th week, while there was significant decrease ( P<0.05) of GOT, and GPT at 12thWeeks of age compared with control group.

From this we conclude that the use of feed containing dried Saccharomyces cerevisiae has new means in improving the qualities of the blood to the rest of the Quail by improving the productive and physiological performance of birds.
