“…The structural alternations in the small intestine of the birds in this study might be related to the high content of fiber in mushroom wastes, however, eventually did not affect the villus height to crypt depth ratio. Giannenas et al (2011) reported the increased villus height of the birds in duodenum, jejunum and ileum fed 1 and 2 % mushrooms, which is similar with the obtained results of the current trial in jejunum.…”

Background Mushroom wastes are widely left from mushroom production industries and have been supposed to possess prebiotic, antimicrobial, antifungal and antioxidant properties. Due to difficulties with using antibiotic growth promoters in poultry diet, mushroom wastes seem to be a proper substitute for them. Therefore, present experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of oyster mushroom wastes on performance, immune responses and intestinal morphology of broiler chickens. To conduct the trial, total of 210-day-old broiler chickens (Ross 308) were assigned to 3 dietary treatments and 5 replicates of 14 mixed birds. Subsequently, performance, immunity and intestinal morphology parameters were evaluated throughout the experiment. Results 1 % mushroom wastes inclusion not significantly increased body weight (BW), weight gain (WG) and feed intake (FI) of chickens (P [ 0.05), while using 2 % of these wastes deteriorated BW and feed conversion ratio (FCR) (P \ 0.05). At 28 days of age, villus height and crypt depth of jejunum were significantly increased using both levels of mushroom wastes, however, these indices impaired in ileum with the same mushroom levels (P \ 0.05). With the exception of antibody titer against Newcastle disease virus which was compromised using 2 %, other antibody-related parameters were not affected by supplementing 1 % mushroom wastes (P [ 0.05). The ratio of heterophil to lymphocyte also decreased by the waste inclusion (P \ 0.05). Conclusion Mushroom wastes in 1 % inclusion are able to improve some parameters of performance and immunity of broiler chicks. Nonetheless, supplementation in 2 % might compromise the mentioned indices.

“…Using Agaricus bisporus in the diet of broilers and turkeys, Giannenas et al (2010Giannenas et al ( , 2011 observed, after five days of refrigeration, the presence of a higher content of malondialdehyde as a result of lipid oxidation in the meat of birds without supplementation compared with birds supplemented with the mushroom. It has been suggested that antioxidant activity is dose dependent and that the protective effect of A. bisporus is a result of the ability of fractions of polysaccharides and polyphenols to stabilize free radicals by electron transfer.…”

The effect of adding Agaricus blazei to the diet of broilers on immunity, serum parameters, and antioxidant activity was evaluated. A total of 840 1-day-old chicks were used, distributed among five levels of a completely randomized design (0.0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20% A. blazei), with six replications and 28 birds per experimental unit. The weights of the thymus, spleen and cloacal bursa were not influenced (P > 0.05). Leukocytes, macrophages and nitric oxide were unaffected (P > 0.05), but at each supplementation level compared with the control, differences appeared in the percentages of eosinophils and macrophages (P < 0.05) at inclusion levels of 0.10, 0.15 and 0.20%. At 28 days, the antibody titer against Newcastle disease showed a quadratic response (P < 0.05) with supplementation, and from the estimated level of 0.08% the production of antibodies was stimulated; however, the same behavior was not observed (P > 0.05) at 42 days. Hypocholesterolemic effect was demonstrated (P < 0.05), but the serum triglyceride concentration was not affected (P > 0.05). The antioxidant activity of mushroom showed a positive linear effect (P < 0.05) on DPPH capture on day zero of meat cooling. The inclusion of A. blazei in the diet of broilers provided an immunostimulatory activity and hypocholesterolemic effect. Residual compounds with antioxidant activity were present in the meat, which may promote tissue protection of the animal in vivo, making possible the use of A. blazei as a natural additive.

ResumoAvaliou-se o uso do Agaricus blazei na alimentação de frangos de corte sobre a imunidade, parâmetros séricos e a atividade antioxidante. Utilizou-se 840 pintos distribuídos em delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado, cinco níveis (0,0; 0,05; 0,10; 0,15 e 0,20%) de Agaricus blazei, seis repetições e 28 aves por unidade experimental. O peso do timo, baço e bolsa cloacal não foi influenciado pelos tratamentos experimentais (P>0,05). Os leucócitos, macrófagos e o óxido nítrico não foram afetados pelos níveis de Agaricus blazei (P>0,05), no entanto a porcentagem de eosinófilo e de macrófagos diferenciaram-se (P<0,05) nos níveis de 0,10, 0,15 e 0,20% em relação ao controle. Aos 28 dias, os níveis de anticorpos contra a doença de Newcastle apresentaram resposta quadrática (P<0,05) à suplementação, e a partir do nível estimado de 0,08% estimulou-se a sua produção, contudo o mesmo

“…According to De Barros et al (2012), the best performance is obtained with 10 mg/kg flavophospholipol. Regarding mushroom powder, Giannenas et al (2011) reported positive results on turkey poults when it was added up to 20 g/kg feed. Dietary treatments used in the present study are detailed in Table 2.…”

(Received: January 13, 2015; accepted: June 12, 2015) doi: 10.17533/udea.rccp.v28n4a01 Summary Background: flavophospholipol is an antibiotic growth promoter (AGP). The current ban of AGP in some countries is controversial because their benefits on the environment and economy by saving feed and reducing nitrogen excretion have been overlooked. White button mushrooms have important nutritional properties and the industry discards large quantities of waste that could be fed to animals. Objective: to evaluate the effect of dietary inclusion of five levels of edible mushroom powder (EMP) and flavophospholipol on the performance and blood serum metabolites of broilers. Methods: a total of 300 one-day-old male broiler chicks were randomly distributed into 10 treatments with three replicates of 10 chicks per pen. The experiment consisted of a factorial arrangement (2x5 treatments) with five inclusion levels of EMP supplementation (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 g/kg of diet) and the addition of 0 or 5 mg/kg of flavophospholipol. Results: supplementation with EMP and flavophospholipol, as individual factors, had a negative effect on feed intake, but positively affected broiler weight gains and feed conversion ratio. Antibiotic supplementation increased uric acid concentration and, as an interaction with mushroom powder, reduced serum triglycerides, and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL). The EMP also affected serum concentration of total cholesterol. Conclusion: the two substances studied, but not their combination, had a positive effect on growth performance of chickens that could be translated into economic benefits.
