Poultry is reared in open side houses in most of the tropical countries, which results in huge temperature variation in shed causing stress resulting in increased demand of antioxidant supplementation. Since cooling of poultry houses or environment control is very expensive, thus methods focused on nutritional modifications appears to be the much logical approach. Stress increases mineral and vitamin mobilization from tissues and their excretion. Effect of some minerals and vitamin supplements such as chromium (Cr) and ascorbic acid to elevate the negative effects of environmental stress is well documented. Cr functions as an antioxidant and its deficiency are said to disrupt carbohydrate and protein metabolism. Cr has been utilized for weight gain, to improve feed conversion ratio, increase relative organ weight, muscle development, decrease cholesterol, increase high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and improve nutrient digestion. Therefore, the present review discusses the beneficial aspects of Cr with its effect in different doses and antioxidant combinations to explore and promote its optimum utilization in poultry nutrition and production.

“…However, some authors have reported that in birds fed with Cr supplement, abdominal fat pad as a percent of carcass weight was reduced significantly (Kim et al, 1996b;Hossain et al, 1998;Lien et al, 1999). Debski et al (2004) reported that Organic chromium supplementation decreased the meat's fat and cholesterol content of broilers.…”

“…Others, however, have reported no positive effect on these same traits (Liarn, 1993;Ward et al, 1993;Ward and Southern, 1995;Kim et al, 1996a,b;Anandhi et al, 2006). Researchers reported that Cr supplements may decrease carcass fat (Kim et al, 1996a) or plasma cholesterol (Press et al, 1990;Kitchalong et al, 1995;Kim et al, 1996b) of broiler chickens. In the majority of the previous studies, chromium picolinate (Kim et al, 1996a,b), Cr yeast (Hossain et al, 1998) or CrCl 3 (Uyanik et al, 2002) have been used, and there has been no research in broilers with chromium polynicotinate.…”

The present study was conducted to determine the effect of chromium polynicotinate supplementation on performance, fat deposition and plasma lipids of broiler chickens. A total of 540 male broiler chicks (Cobb 500) were allotted to 6 dietary treatments. The dietary chromium polynicotinate levels were 0 (Control), 250, 500, 750, 1000 or 1250 μg/kg, respectively. At 10-28 days of age (grower phase), the 500 μg/kg concentration of chromium polynicotinate supplementation had a beneficial effect on feed intake and body weight gain of broilers (P<0.05). At 29-42 days of age (finisher phase), feed conversion ratio was decreased (P<0.05) in broilers fed with chromium polynicotinate supplement at levels of 250, 750, 1000 or 1250 μg/kg. Chromium polynicotinate did not affect the abdominal fat pad deposition. The results indicated that the 500 μg/kg level of chromium polynicotinate supplement decreased the plasma cholesterol concentration in the finisher phases. The chromium concentrations of 1000 and 500 μg/kg were more effective at grower and finisher phases, respectively (P<0.05). Plasma triglyceride was not affected by dietary chromium concentration. The results from this study suggest that supplementation of chromium polynicotinate improved growth performance and influenced blood cholesterol concentrations, but in this respect, there was not dose related effects
