This experiment investigated the effect of microencapsulated turmeric by maltodextrin as an amorphous matrix material on the health status of broiler chickens.
The broilers used were 144 healthy 1-day-old males. The average body weight was 47.8 ± 1.42 gm. The statistical design was based on a completely randomized design with four treatments and six replications. There were six broiler chickens in each experimental unit. The treatments were TM0 = 0 gm/kg of basal feed, TM1 = 1 gm/kg of basal feed, TM2 = 2 gm/kg of basal feed, and TM3 = 3 gm/kg of basal feed. The growth performance, physical traits, internal organs, microbial population, intestinal morphology, hematological parameters, and antioxidant profile were examined.
The results reported that microencapsulated turmeric by maltodextrin as an amorphous matrix significantly improved the hematological parameters, growth performance, antioxidant profile, LAB, immune organs, and intestinal morphology. The results also show decreasing coliform and pH of the cecum.
Dietary addition of maltodextrin microencapsulated turmeric of 3 gm/kg in basal feed can be used as a natural feed additive to improve the health status of broiler chickens.
本实验研究了以麦芽糊精作为无定形基质材料微囊化姜黄对肉鸡健康状况的影响。
所用肉鸡为144只1日龄健康雄性。平均体重为47.8±1.42克。统计设计基于完全随机设计，有四种处理和六个重复。每个实验单元有六只肉鸡。处理分别为TM0 = 0克/千克基础饲料、TM1 = 1克/千克基础饲料、TM2 = 2克/千克基础饲料和TM3 = 3克/千克基础饲料。检测了生长性能、身体特征、内脏器官、微生物种群、肠道形态、血液学参数和抗氧化指标。
结果表明，以麦芽糊精作为无定形基质微囊化的姜黄显著改善了血液学参数、生长性能、抗氧化指标、乳酸菌、免疫器官和肠道形态。结果还显示盲肠中大肠杆菌数量减少且pH值降低。
在基础饲料中添加3克/千克麦芽糊精微囊化姜黄可作为天然饲料添加剂来改善肉鸡的健康状况。
