The pre-slaughter period is considered critical in broiler production. Several factors contribute to increase the birds' stress, such as handling, harvesting, and transportation, negatively affecting their welfare. This study aimed at evaluating the addition of lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus Stapf) to the drinking water of broilers during the pre-slaughter period on their behavior, blood cortisol, and surface temperature. The study was carried out at the experimental farm of the Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD), Dourados, MS, Brazil. In total, 2594 broilers were distributed according to a completely randomized experimental design, in a 3x2x2 factorial arrangement, with four replicates per treatment. Treatments consisted of three different lemon grass levels (Cymbopogon citratus Stapf) used in the form of an infusion (0, 0.1, and 5 g per L of water), sex (male or female), and genetic strain (Ross® 308 or Cobb® 500). The infusion was offered when birds were 42 days old. On that day, blood was collected for blood cortisol level determination, broiler surface temperature was recorded, and an ethogram was applied to register broiler behavior. Blood cortisol level and broiler surface temperature were not affected by treatments (p>0.05). The behavior of beak opening was different between the genetic strains (p<0.05), being more frequent in Ross® 308 broilers. Lemon grass water content did not affect broilers' surface temperature when consumed during the pre-slaughter period.

“…The tubes were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 min (Centribio, 80-2B, SP-Brazil) to, and the supernatant was homogenized, resulting in three samples per treatment. Samples were stored at 20°C (Valle et al, 2008) and analyzed using a commercial kit (Cortisol EIA, E52061 Westbrook, ME, USA).…”

“…Suhajda et al (2000) reported that since the association of selenium with vitamin E was established, along with the modulating effect of glutathione peroxidase and antioxidants on the actions of free radicals and peroxides, the investigation of these elements has intensified. Determination of biochemical parameters in the blood is a tool that assists in the diagnosis of metabolic diseases, contributes to the definition of the nutritional profile of a population, and also allows a more detailed clinical evaluation of a population of individuals (VALLE et al, 2008). According to Thrall et al (2004), these parameters can be altered according to the nutritional status and also the age of the studied animal.…”

SUMMARY This study aimed to evaluate biometric viscera and blood parameters of quails at 14 and 35 days of age, supplemented with different levels of inorganic selenium and vitamin E. A completely randomized design was used in a 4×4 factorial scheme (inorganic Se = 0.1125, 0.2250, 0.3375 and 0.4500 mg/kg diet x VE = 10, 23, 36 and 49 IU/kg feed). In the 0-14 days experiment, 2,400 newborn quail were used, distributed in 16 treatments and three replications of 50 birds each. In the 14-35 days experiment, 1,680 14 day-old quails were used with same treatments and three replicates of 35 birds each. At 14 days, the relative spleen weights (P=0.0203) increased linearly as a function of the VE level, while at 35 days, the relative weight of the bursa (P=0.0390) increased linearly as a function of Se concentration. At 14 days, there was a vitamin x mineral interaction (p=0.0097) affecting total cholesterol (TC), and a quadratic effect (P = 0.0138) related to Se and linear reduction levels (P=0.0275) as a function of VE. At 35 days, the TC concentrations (P=0.0055) and triglycerides (TG, P = 0.0220) showed a quadratic effect for Se. The linear increase in spleen weight and bursa after 14 and 35 days respectively suggests an improved immune response as a function of VE and Se supplementation. To achieve the lowest concentration of TC and TG at 35 days of age, supplementation of 0.26 and 0.29 mg/Se/kg/feed, respectively, is recommended.

“…Thus, reference range data from different species are often used to perform blood examinations interpretation (VIGGERS et al, 1993). The lack of standardized data that can be used to evaluate health may limit adequate diagnosis (FUDGE, 2000;VALLE et al, 2008). There are few published articles describing A. vinacea hematologic and serum biochemical values (POLO et al, 1998;SCHMIDT et al, 2009).…”
