Abstract

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of probiotics supplementation (Biomina, Biotronic and smart acidfier) on some serum biochemical parameters of broiler chickens. Two hundred Ross 1. day-old broiler chicks were divided into 4 groups. The first group (the control) was fed on standard ration, the second and third groups were fed on diets supplemented with (1.5g/ kg ration) of Biomin or Biotronic, respectively, the fourth group was reared on standard ration and given smart acidifier (1 ml/ 1Litter drinking water). Results showed a significant increase in the body weights with reduction in the mortality rate in groups treated with probiotics. Supplementation with probiotics caused significant reduction in the concentrations of total lipid, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and cholesterol – low density lipoprotein, cholesterol- high density lipoprotein, cholesterol – very low density lipoprotein. The concentrations of glucose and total protein were not affected by treated with probiotics. While significant decrease in albumin and albumine / globulin ratio with a significant increase in globuline concentration was observed in all treated groups with probiotics. The results also showed interference of age on biochemical parameters was observed in control and probiotics treated groups. The Results suggest that there are beneficial effect of probiotics supplementation on the health status of broiler chickens.
