Meat Characteristic of Crossbred Local Chicken Fed Inulin of Dahlia Tuber and Lactobacillus sp.

Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the meat characteristic of crossbred local chicken fed diet containing both dahlia tuber powder as inulin source and probiotic Lactobacillus sp. The experimental animals were 168 crossbred local chickens which were randomly divided into 6 groups of treatment (4 replications each) when they were 21-d old. A completely randomized design with 2 x 3 factorial pattern consisted of 2 levels of prebiotic [(0.8% (D1) and 1.2% (D2)] and 3 levels of probiotic [without probiotic (L0), 1.2 mL (L1), and 2.4 mL (L2)] was arranged in the present study. One mL probiotic (Lactobacillus sp.) was equal to 10 8 cfu. Results showed that the supplementation of prebiotic and probiotic significantly (P<0.05) affected breast meat color in terms of L* (lightness) and b* (yellowness). The meat fat mass and cholesterol was significantly (P<0.05) decreased by the combination of prebiotic and probiotic. The hardness of meat was not affected significantly by all treatments. The conclusion is that breast meat color could be improved, and both meat fat mass and cholesterol content could be decreased by feeding a combination of 1.2% dahlia tuber powder as inulin source and 1.2 mL probiotic Lactobacillus sp. Key words: prebiotic inulin, probiotic Lactobacillus sp., meat characteristic, crossbred local chicken ABSTRAKTujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi karakteristik daging ayam lokal persilangan yang diberi ransum mengandung kombinasi prebiotik inulin dari umbi dahlia dan probiotik Lactobacillus sp. Penelitian menggunakan 168 ekor ayam lokal persilangan umur 21 hari yang secara acak ditempatkan pada 6 perlakuan dengan 4 ulangan. Rancangan acak lengkap pola faktorial 2 x 3 diterapkan pada penelitian ini. Penambahan prebiotik sebanyak 0,8% (D1) dan 1,2% (D2) sebagai faktor pertama, dan penambahan probiotik yaitu tanpa probiotik (L0), probiotik 1,2 mL (L1), dan 2,4 mL (L2) sebagai faktor kedua. Satu mililiter probiotik (Lactobacillus sp.) setara dengan 10 8 cfu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan prebiotik dan probiotik pada ransum nyata (P<0,05) mempengaruhi warna daging dada berdasarkan L* (tingkat kecerahan) dan b* (tingkat kekuningan). Massa lemak dan kolesterol nyata (P<0,05) menurun akibat penambahan prebiotik dan probiotik. Kekerasan daging tidak nyata dipengaruhi oleh perlakuan. Kesimpulannya adalah bahwa 1,2% prebiotik dan probiotik 1,2 mL (10 8 cfu/mL) adalah kombinasi yang paling optimum berdasarkan perbaikan warna daging dada dan penurunan massa lemak dan kolesterol daging.

Inclusion effect of ginger and turmeric mixture combined with Lactobacillus spp. isolated from rumen fluid of cattle on health status and growth of broiler

“…There are many alternatives to replace antibiotic have been studied using herbs alone or in combination with probiotics. In the absent of feeding AGP, dietary inclusion of probiotic either alone succesfully improved chickens health and produced higher meat quality in broiler (Cholis et al, 2018;Wulandari et al, 2018) or in combination with prebiotic in crossbred local chicken (Abdurrahman et al, 2016a;2016b).…”

The Associations of GH and GHR Genes with Carcass Components in Indonesian Kampung and Broiler Chicken Cross

“…In order to improve the growth and carcass performance of Kampung chicken, an F2 intercross between Kampung and commercial broiler chicken was designed and then followed by selection based on genes controlling growth. Abdurrahman et al (2016) reported that the local chicken crossbreds had lower fat and cholesterol contents due to a higher muscular contraction compared to modern breeds. Meanwhile, at the gene level, molecular genetics provides rapid and accurate identification and selection tools for individuals to improve their performances permanently (Fulton, 2008;Padhi, 2016).…”

Dietary Supplementation of Purified Amino Acid Derived from Animal Blood on Immune Response and Growth Performance of Broiler Chicken

“…The purified amino acid used in this study was derived from blood meal and the purification process increased the crude protein content tremendously. Dietary protein was very important for the normal growth and reproduction of animals (Han & Lee, 2000;Abdurrahman et al, 2016). Many studies (Hansen & Lewis, 1993;Tuitoek et al, 1997) have demonstrated a protein sparing effect of using amino acid supplementation to balance low-crude protein diets in monogastric animals.…”
