Effect of dietary supplementation of probiotics, enzymes and their combination on growth performance, meat yield, intestinal microbiota and plasma analysis of broiler chicks
Abstract:This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of the commercial probiotics (Bacillus amyloliquefaciens) (BA), an enzyme mixture containing xylanase, amylase and protease (XAP) enzymes, and their combination (BA+XAP) on growth performance, carcass characteristics, some blood biochemical parameters, and intestinal microbiota of broiler chicks. A total number of 320 one-day-old unsexed broiler chicks (Ross) with an average body weight of 43.65±0.19 g were assigned to 4 dietary treat… Show more
