This study identified the optimal multi-enzyme dose rate at three energy levels based on the production performance of broiler chickens. A 42-day grow out trial was conducted using 576 day-old mixed-sex ROSS308 broiler chickens in a 3 × 4 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design. Diets consisting of three metabolizable energy (ME) levels: standard energy (STD), 150 kcal/kg energy reduction (STD-150), and 200 kcal/kg energy reduction (STD-200), were cross factored with four multi-enzyme inclusion levels (0, 350, 700, and 1000 g/ton). The average daily feed intake and feed conversion ratio increased linearly ( < 0.001) as the dietary ME was reduced, and the multi-enzyme addition improved the feed conversion ratio ( < 0.05) and mitigated the negative effect of the reduced energy diets (RED) on feed intake and feed conversion ratios. Carcass composition, organ weights, and meat quality were not affected by the experimental diets. The RED decreased abdominal fat weight ( < 0.05). Total ash, calcium, and phosphorous contents of the tibia bone were improved ( < 0.04) when the RED were supplemented with the multi-enzyme. Super-dosing multi-enzymes in RED mitigates the negative effect of ME reduction on growth performance while maintaining organ development and meat quality and improving bone mineral content.
本研究基于肉鸡的生产性能,确定了三个能量水平下的最佳多酶剂量率。采用576只1日龄ROSS308混合性别肉鸡,按照3×4析因设计进行完全随机分组,开展了为期42天的育肥试验。试验日粮包括三个代谢能(ME)水平:标准能量(STD)、降低150 kcal/kg能量(STD - 150)和降低200 kcal/kg能量(STD - 200),并与四个多酶添加水平(0、350、700和1000 g/吨)进行交叉分组。随着日粮代谢能降低,平均日采食量和饲料转化率呈线性增加(<0.001),添加多酶可提高饲料转化率(<0.05),并减轻低能量日粮(RED)对采食量和饲料转化率的负面影响。试验日粮对胴体组成、器官重量和肉质无影响。低能量日粮降低了腹脂重量(<0.05)。在低能量日粮中添加多酶时,胫骨的总灰分、钙和磷含量得到改善(<0.04)。在低能量日粮中超量添加多酶可减轻代谢能降低对生长性能的负面影响,同时维持器官发育和肉质,并提高骨矿物质含量。
