“…Also, we note from the same table that the addition of ginger (G3) had no effect on final body weight, weight gain, or the amount of feed consumed at P≤0.05. This result is consistent with Ademola et al (2009), who added 1.5% ginger to the diet and did not observe significant variations in final body weight or weight gain of broiler chickens during the 4 weeks. -G1=Control, G2= 0.5%H2O2, G3= 1000 mg ginger/kg ration, G4= H2O2 + Ginger added from the beginning, G5= H2O2 + Ginger added after 2 weeks from the beginning.…”

This research was carried out to find out the ability of crushed dry ginger (Zingiber officinale) to recover or prevent the impacts of oxidative stress that is induced by hydrogen peroxide by studying some hematological and productive traits of quail. One hundred fifty sexed male quail (21 days old) were randomly distributed into five groups of 30 birds each (3 replicates). G1: control; G2: H2O2 group; G3: ginger group; G4: H2O2+ginger from the beginning of the experiment; G5: H2O2+ginger after the 2 nd week from the beginning of the experiment. Blood samples were collected at the age of 56 days, and the results showed that the addition of H2O2 led to a significantly increased (p≤0.05) feed consumption compared with other groups and enhanced significantly the feed conversion ratio compared with ginger and the control. Also, H2O2 caused a significant increase in blood glucose levels compared to the ginger group and a significant elevation in cholesterol and triglycerides compared with other groups, while PCV%, hemoglobin, and lymphocytes decreased significantly, which led to a significant elevation in the stress index in comparison to the ginger group. As for the impact of ginger, it was opposite to the effect of hydrogen peroxide, as it significantly reduced feed consumption and lowered blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides, which led to an improvement in the blood picture and a decrease in the value of the stress index for the birds that ate ginger alone or the birds in the groups that ate ginger with hydrogen peroxide.

Organophosphorus insecticides have been widely classified as a health dangerous and high toxicity compounds due to their widespread use and release into the environment. Ginger (Zingiber officinale) has been used as a medicinal plant since antiquity and is known to play diverse biological roles including anti oxidation, anti-inflammation, hyperlipidemia, anti-carcinogenesis, anti-nausea, anti-thrombosis, and antibacterial process. The purpose of these experiments was to study decreasing the toxicity effect of Dimethoate by ginger. All animals in this study were assigned to one of four treatment groups: 0 mg ginger and 0 mg dimethoate /kg BW (control); 100 mg ginger/kg BW; 43.2 mg dimethoate /kg BW; and 43.2 mg dimethoate plus 100 mg ginger/kg BW. Rabbits were orally managed the particular measurements each other day for 12 weeks. Results indicated that treatment with ginger alone caused significant (P<0.05) increase in body weight (BW) and relative weight of testes compared to control animals. Whereas the rabbits treated with dimethoate showed significant (P<0.05) decrease in BW and relative weight of testes compared with control. Results showed that treatment with DM caused significant (P<0.05) decrease activity of testosterone, T3 and T4. While, increase the levels of FSH and LH in plasma. Ginger caused significant (P<0.05) increase in the activity of testosterone, T3 and T4 in plasma compared to control. While, decrease the levels of FSH and LH in plasma. The presence of ginger with DM caused significant (P<0.05) decrease in the reduction of T3 and T4, while caused an improvement in the levels of testosterone as compared to control and the presence of ginger with DM caused increase in the levels of FSH and LH as compared to control, and this means that ginger counteracted the toxic effects of DM.

“…Adding Z. officinale powder to poultry feed improved weight gain and performance [25]. Furthermore, various researchers have reported higher BWG in broiler chickens with a diet including Z. officinale [26,27]. Incharoen and Yamauchi, 2009, reported improved FCR in 0.1% and 0.2% Z. officinale-supplemented groups [28].…”

This study investigated the effects of dietary synbiotic formulation with phytoactives (SFP) on growth performance, health, ready-to-cook (RTC) weight, gut health, nutrient digestibility, and litter characteristics in broiler chickens. Nine hundred one-day-old Cobb 430Y broiler chicks were randomly assigned to five groups: T0, T1, T2, T3, and T4, with two replicates of 90 birds each on day one of the feeding trials. T0 was raised on regular feed without antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs). In contrast, T1, T2, T3, and T4 were raised on regular feed and supplemented per ton of feed with Enramycin at 100 g, SFP at 100 g, 150 g, and competitor probiotic product (CPP) at 100 g. Supplementation of SFP at 150 g/ton of feed affected the performance, RTC weight, gut health, health, nutrient digestibility, litter characteristics, and overall health of Cobb 430Y broiler chickens. SFP is a possible antibiotics alternative in broiler chickens' diets. SFP supplementation at 100 g/ton (T2) and 150 g/ton (T3) performed similarly to Enramycin (T1) and CPP (T4) in terms of litter characteristics. It caused a reduction in fecal water-soluble phosphorus (WSP) of 16.67%, 16.67%, and 23.08%, respectively, when compared to control (T0), Enramycin (T1), and CPP (T4).
