Abstract:To ensure the long-term viability of broiler farming, producers must address a number of issues, including rising feed costs, a ban on antibiotic growth promoters, and growing consumer awareness of chemical residues in broiler chicken meat. Fruit peel is a waste with no commercial value, but due to its high nutritional content, particularly in terms of energy, it has the potential to be used as an alternative feed source for broiler chicks. Fruit peel also contains a number of nutraceutical compounds that have… Show more
Factory feed is often added with antibiotics as a growth promoter. Giving synthetic antibiotics is very dangerous for health. This study aims to determine effect of addition synbiotic isolate Pediococcus pentosaceus strain N6 and cassava peel flour on the immune organs and total microbes in the small intestine of super native chickens. This research was conducted in Pancur Batu from September - December 2022. The design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments 5 replicates so that 20 experimental units were obtained. The super native chicken used were 100 DOC. The treatments given were P0 (basal ration without sinbiotic), P1 (basal ration + sinbiotic 150 ml/kg ration), P2 (basal ration + sinbiotic 300 ml/kg ration), and P3 (basal ration + sinbiotic 450 ml/kg ration). Parameters studied were weight percentage of immune organs and total microbial colonies. The results of this study indicated that the addition of synbiotic isolate Pediococcus pentosaceus strain N6 and fermented cassava peel flour up to a dose of 450 ml/kg as an alternative feed for native chickens increased percentage weight of spleen, thymus, bursa fabrisius, and total microbial colony of super native chickens.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
