“…Under the conditions of the present study all chicks appeared healthy and total mortality rate was 2.0% (3 chicks) during the total experimental period (35 days) and it seems that inclusion of different levels of bee honey and bee pollen or both (T 2-4 ) had positively influenced health conditions and mortality rate (Table). This result agreed with Obun et al (2008); Hegazi et al (2013) and Oyegunle et al (2016) they reported that dietary supplementation of BH could reduce the mortality rate, this might be account for improving the immune response (Gheldof, 2002 andHegazi et al, 2013). In addition, BH stimulates the activity of leukocytes, stimulates lymphocytes proliferation and activates phagocytes, the honey stimulates monocytes to release cytokines, which are activators of immune response to infection.…”

“…Also, BWG showed similar trend, the best BWG showed in T 2 and T 4 (1703.32 and 1742.34 g). These results agreed with (Obun et al, 2008;Hegazi et al, 2013;Osunkeye et al, 2016;Oyegunle et al, 2016;Sakine et al, 2016;Abuoghaba andIsmail 2018 andklaric et al, 2018) they indicated that addition of BH or BP in broiler diets led to significant increases in LBW and BWG. But disagreed with (Monsuru et al, 2012) who didn't found significant effects on LBW or BWG by bee honey addition in broiler diets.…”

“…The results showed significant effect in PI between treatments, the best result recorded in (T 2 , 107) and (T4, 109) compare to another treatments. These results agreed with (Monsuru et al, 2012 andHosseini et al, 2016) who reported that the BH or BP supplementation had no significant effect on FC and FCR of broiler chicks compared with that of the control group, while disagreed with (Farag and El-Rayes, 2016 and Obun et al, 2008) who reported that supplementation of bee honey or bee pollen had significant effect in FC and FCR in broiler chicks.…”

“…Therefore, many researchers tried to find some natural feed additives such as Bee honey and bee pollen to be used in poultry farms to reduce the expected harmful effects, the results of many previous reports demonstrated that bee products has a beneficial influence on body weight gain (BWG), feed consumption (FC), feed conversion ratio (FCR), and productive performance in different poultry species (Osunkeye et al, 2016, Hegazi et al, 2013and Obun et al, 2008. By contrast, other researchers did not find any positive effects of using dietary bee products on growth performance of broiler chicks (Hosseini et al, 2016 andMonsuru et al,.…”

n experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects feeding broiler chicks on corn soybean meal diets supplemented with bee honey (BH), bee pollen (BP) or both as alternative to antibiotics erythromycin (ER) on growth performance, tibia characteristics and some blood plasma parameters. A total of number 150 one-day old chicks of (Cobb) strain were randomly assigned to five dietary treatments (5 treatments x 3 replicate groups x 10 chicks in each group). The treatments were: control without supplementation; T1 (ER) 0.0275%; T2 (BH) 0.10%; T3, (BP) 0.05% and T4 (BH, 0.10% + BP 0.05). The main results showed significant effect on body weight, body weight gain and performance index. On contrary there were no significant effect on feed consumption and feed conversion ratio within treatments. The results showed no significant effect on tibia measurements tibia weight (wet and dry), tibia (width and length) and tibia seeder index while there was significant effect on tibia breaking strength, As most of measured parameters there were no significant effect on tibia chemical composition (ASH and P) except (Ca) between treatments.

“…Consistent with previous study results [36], broilers treated with FCSM supplementation had a lower in serum Glu and TG than the CON broilers (Table 4). Glu is one of the metabolites used as an indicator of the energy status of the animal [37]. In the present study, the concentration of Glu in broilers were measured after a 12 h feed withdrawal.…”

Simple SummaryExcessive fat deposition in broiler chickens is detrimental for both producers and consumers. Fermented cottonseed meal (FCSM) was proposed as a potential method to relieve fat deposition in broilers’ rearing, while the physiological and metabolic mechanisms behind that still remain unclear. This study showed that both abdominal fat content and subcutaneous fat thickness significantly decreased in response to dietary FCSM supplementation at the age of 21 d, and altered the lipid-related metabolites index in serum, liver, and abdominal fat. Moreover, serum metabolic pathways were clustered into organic acid metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism.AbstractThis study aimed to investigate the changes of lipid-related gene and serum metabolites in broiler chickens fed with fermented cottonseed meal (FCSM) diet, through quantitative real-time PCR and metabolomics analysis. Totally, 180 1-day-old Cobb broilers were randomly assigned to two groups with six replicates of 15 birds in each. The two diets consisted of a control diet supplemented with 0% FCSM (CON group) and an experimental diet with 6% FCSM (fermented by Candida tropicalis) replacing the soybean meal (FCSM group). The results showed that both abdominal fat content and subcutaneous fat thickness significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in response to dietary FCSM supplementation at the age of 21 d. Serum concentrations of glucose, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased (p < 0.05) in FCSM fed broilers compared with CON fed broilers, while the levels of epinephrine and growth hormone in serum, liver and abdominal fat tissue were higher (p < 0.05) in FCSM than in CON fed broilers. The activity of hormone-sensitive esterase and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in the liver and abdominal fat were higher (p < 0.05) in FCSM than CON group. Additionally, compared with the CON group (p < 0.05), the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha and LPL genes were upregulated in the livers of FCSM group broilers. Gene expressions of hormone-sensitive lipase and LPL in the abdominal fat tissue were also upregulated (p < 0.05) with the broilers fed with FCSM diets. A total of 20 significantly different metabolites were obtained in the serum of different dietary FCSM supplemented fed broilers. The mainly altered pathways were clustered into organic acid metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism. These results not only provide a better understanding of broilers’ lipid metabolism with FCSM but also can be helpful in further improvement of the broilers’ healthy production and utilization of FCSM.

Le miel est un produit renfermant des propriétés nutritives susceptibles de stimuler les performances zootechniques des volailles. L’objectif de cette étude était de déterminer le taux d’incorporation optimal du miel dans les rations des poulets de chair. Un échantillon de 105 poussins de chair a été réparti en trois lots de 35 sujets et chaque lot subdivisé en 5 répétitions de 7 sujets. Les lots traités 1 et le traité 2 ont reçu des doses du miel dans la ration alimentaire respectivement au démarrage 0,5% et 1%, en croissance 1% et 2% et en finition 1% et 4%. Le premier lot a servi de témoin. Les lots ont été comparés sur les variables de croissance pondérale. Les résultats ont montré au cours de la phase de démarrage une amélioration significative (P < 0,05) sur la consommation volontaire des aliments (30,5g contre 34,8g), du GMQ (22,7 g/jour contre 23,4g/ jour), l’IC (1,3 contre 1,4)et le poids vif à 14 jours (359g contre 377g).Par contre au cours de là phase de croissance, aucune différence significative n’a été notée dans la ration contenant 1% de miel. En revanche pendant la phase de finition, une amélioration significative a été observée sur tous les paramètres étudiés. Cette étude suggère l’utilisation du miel à la dose de 0,5% pendant les phases de démarrage et de croissance et à 1% au cours de la phase de finition.
