The study investigated the effect of enzymes as a toxin detoxifier (DETOXIZYME) dietary supplementation on performance during growth, blood chemistry, and immunity under clostridia infection in chickens. A total of 480, day-old male chicks were randomly distributed to four groups, with six replicates of 20 birds each. The first control negative treatment (A) fed the basal formula as commercial feed prepared following the strain's needs, the second control positive group (B) fed the basal formula challenged with Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) type A, the third group (C) fed the basal formula with 100 g DETOXIZYME/ton of feed and challenged with clostridia, and the fourth group (D) fed the control basal formula with 100 g DETOXIZYME/ton of feed. DETOXIZYME dietary supplementation significantly boosted body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), and European production efficiency factor (EPEF) and improved the feed conversion rate (FCR) of the broilers. The dietary supplementation of DETOXIZYME significantly increased carcass trait and spleen. However, liver and abdominal fat weight significantly decreased compared with clostridia-challenged groups. The values of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), uric acid, creatinine, and Malondialdehyde (MDA) were decreased. While calcium, phosphate, zinc, and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels were improved in birds that took basal formulas fortified with DETOXIZYME contrary to the other treatment groups during 35 days of age. Plasma total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) values were reduced versus the other treatment groups. Dietary supplementation of DETOXIZYME increased total protein, albumin, globulin, and Newcastle Disease (ND) immunity titer levels in the overall period compared to other groups. Dietary DETOXIZYME supplementation decreased clostridia and E. coli bacteria counts and improved gut morphometry. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of DETOXIZYME had a positive impact on performance, blood biochemistry, immunity, and bacterial counts and improved the gut morphology in broilers under clostridia infection.
本研究调查了酶作为一种毒素解毒剂(DETOXIZYME)在日粮中的添加对鸡在生长过程中的性能、血液生化和免疫力的影响,以及在梭菌感染下的影响。共有 480 只 1 日龄雄性小鸡被随机分为 4 组,每组 6 个重复,每个重复 20 只鸡。第一组为阴性对照(A),喂食按照品系需求配制的基础日粮,第二组为阳性对照(B),喂食含产气荚膜梭菌(C. perfringens)A型的基础日粮,第三组(C)喂食添加 100g DETOXIZYME/吨饲料的基础日粮,第四组(D)喂食添加 100g DETOXIZYME/吨饲料的基础日粮。DETOXIZYME 日粮补充显著提高了鸡的体重(BW)、体重增重(BWG)、采食量(FI)和欧洲生产效率因子(EPEF),并改善了肉鸡的饲料转化率(FCR)。DETOXIZYME 日粮补充显著提高了肉鸡的胴体性状和脾脏。然而,与梭菌攻毒组相比,肝脏和腹部脂肪重量显著降低。丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)、天冬氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)、尿酸、肌酐和丙二醛(MDA)的含量降低。而钙、磷、锌和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPx)水平在 35 日龄时,用 DETOXIZYME 强化基础日粮的鸡群中得到改善,与其他处理组相反。血浆总胆固醇、甘油三酯和低密度脂蛋白(LDL)水平低于其他处理组。在整个试验期间,DETOXIZYME 的日粮补充提高了总蛋白、白蛋白、球蛋白和新城疫(ND)免疫力滴度水平。DETOXIZYME 日粮补充降低了梭菌和大肠杆菌的细菌计数,并改善了肠道形态。总之,DETOXIZYME 的日粮补充对性能、血液生化、免疫力和细菌计数有积极影响,并改善了梭菌感染下肉鸡的肠道形态。
