The Role ofSauropus androgynus(L.) Merr. Leaf Powder in the Broiler Chickens Fed a Diet Naturally Contaminated with Aflatoxin

Abstract: Aflatoxin (AF) is the secondary metabolite of Aspergillus flavus and commonly contaminates feed during storage. AF causes lowered growth rate, stress, and increased mortality in the poultry, especially for broiler industries. The aims of this study are to determine the effects of Sauropus androgynus (L.) Merr. leaf powder (SAP) in the chickens fed a diet naturally contaminated with AF. A total of 108 chickens are divided into 6 group: group I fed with basal diet (AF not detectable); group II fed with basal die… Show more

“…The total aflatoxin of chicken feed was routinely tested by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA). The chicken feed was incubated based on the following method that was indicated by the previous study (Prakoso et al, 2018). The total aflatoxin was measured each day during the study with a triple of replication.…”

“…S. androgynus has similar antioxidant compounds, and it is commonly used as an antioxidant and antitoxic and to prevent ROS production [15]. The utilization of S. androgynus as the feed additive in a broiler increases the immune expression of CD4+/CD8+ lymphocytes that help depress cellular destruction during aflatoxicosis [16]. Similar to the others, A. graveolens is used as an antifungal agent [17], an anti-carcinogenic agent for the treatment of lymphoblastic leukemia, and a radical scavenging agent [18].…”

“…The role of SA also exhibited the protective effect on the liver, kidney and spleen histopathology during AF exposure by decreasing of the severe liver necrosis and degeneration, and also prevent the necrotic cell and inflammation of tubules epithelial kidney [ 36 ]. Methanolic extract of S. androgynus exhibited antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhimurium and Klebsiella pneumonia [ 37 ]. Apigenin and luteolin contained in SA inhibit the effect of lipopolysaccharide proteins from Gram-negative bacteria [ 38 ].…”
