Effect of Peppermint Leaves Powder (Mentha Piperita L.) and L-Menthol Crystal on Nutrients Digestibility, Performance, Digestive Enzymes, Thyroid Hormone, Immunity, Antioxidant Indices and Microbial Population of Laying Quail
Abstract:The current experiment aimed to study impacts of feeding on peppermint leaves powder (PLP) and its respective L-menthol crystal (LMC) supplementations on performance, plasma biochemistry, antioxidant, impregnability, microbial content, digestibility and digestive enzymes in laying Japanese quail. A total of 504 birds were randomly assigned to seven test groups, each one with 6 replicates and 12 birds. First group received a standard diet, whereas treatments from second to four obtained standard diet plus PLP a… Show more
