“…GSH-Px is one kind of selenoenzyme in the HFC-supplemented group compared with control birds. The high selenium content in mushroom might contribute to this desired property (Vetter and Lelley, 2004). Elevated GSH-Px activitiy could be due to active induction of glutathione synthetic enzymes due to higher selenium uptake or passive sparing of glutathione by decreasing the oxidative load on the cells.…”

“…Mushrooms encompass of immune-enhancing substances such as polysaccharides, glycosides, alkaloids, volatile oils, and organic acids (Yang and Feng 1998;Willis et al 2007). Moreover, Selenium is an abundant trace element in mushrooms (Vetter and Lelley 2004), which promotes the antioxidant potential of them and consequently enhances the immunity of consumer animals. Furthermore, mushrooms and their extracted polysaccharides also have been exhibited to have protective effects against E. Tenella infection (Guo et al 2004).…”

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.

“…However, there is no evidence as to whether dietary supplementation of dried mushrooms can improve oxidative stability of chicken tissues. Agaricus bisporus mushroom is also considered as a good source of selenium (Vetter and Lelley, 2004). Consumption of A. bisporus, which is the most widely investigated edible mushroom, has been shown to retard the development of free radicals (Falandysz, 2008).…”

In this study, we evaluated the growth performance and antioxidant status of broiler chicken supplemented with the edible mushroom Agaricus bisporus. Ninety 1-d-old female broiler chickens randomly allotted to 3 dietary treatments were given either a nutritionally balanced basal diet or the basal diet supplemented with 10 or 20 g of dried mushroom/kg of feed for 6 wk on an ad libitum basis. Body weight, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio values were monitored weekly. To evaluate the antioxidant status of broiler chicken, refrigerated liver, breast, and thigh tissues were assayed for levels of glutathione, reduced glutathione, glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione S-transferase, as well as malondialdehyde at 6 wk of age. Results showed that dietary mushroom supplementation at both inclusion levels was accepted well by the broiler chicken and improved feed efficiency compared with the control diet. Dietary mushroom inclusion at 20 g/kg improved both growth performance and feed efficiency compared with control diet at 42 d of age. Dietary mushroom at both inclusion levels reduced malondialdehyde production in liver, breast, and thigh tissues and elevated glutathione peroxidase, reduced glutathione, glutathione reductase, and glutathione S-transferase compared with the control treatment, the effects being dose-dependent. These results suggest that A. bisporus mushroom exerts both a growth-promoting and tissue antioxidant-protective activity when supplemented in broiler chicken diets.
