Abstract | ||
This study was carried out to invest tigate the effect of adding chitosan to dietary in the some characters physiological on broiler chickens . (450) birds which are non sexed of (Ross308) day old broiler chickens have been distributed randomly into six treatments. Three replicates for every single treatment (every replicates consists of 25 birds). The first treatment was control on that is free of any addition while the treatments from the second to the sixth include addition of dietary (0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8,1) g/kg respectively from (1-35) days. The results showed significant increase (P<0•05) for all the treatments of adding chitosan in the number of white blood cells (WBC) and the treatments of adding chitosan (0.6,0.8 and 1) g/kg dietary in the percentage of lymphocyte cells and the concentration of albumen for T5 compared with the control treatment. significant increase (P<0•05) in the concentration of globulin for T6 compared with T3 and T5 and significant decrease (P<0•05) in the concentration of triglyceride for all addition chitosan to treatments and T4 in cholesterol concentration compared with control treatment . There were no significant differences in the number of red blood cells (RBC) , hemoglobin (Hb) , Packed Cells Volume (PCV)% , glucose concentration , uric acid and blood enzymes AST , ALT and Total protein. | ||
