Effect of Useof Katuk Leaf Extract, Lemuru Fish Oil and Vitamin E to Performance and Quality of Broiler Chickens

The aim of this research work is evaluate effect of supplementation different levels of fumaric acid at two different times on productive performance and several serum biochemical parameters in broiler chickens. A total of 360 (day-old) chicks were used for 35 days. Chicks were randomly distributed among five treatments, each treatment included three replicates (24 chicks /replicate). Experimental treatments included fumaric acid 0, 1, 1.5 g / kg feed, which was presented to the birds in two stages, the first at the age of 10 days, the second at the age of 20 days in the diet. The results showed that the treatments added to fumaric recorded a significant increase in body weight, weight gain, and the amount of feed ingested. And there were no significant differences in the feed conversion factor, and the biochemical parameters showed that fumaric intake reduces glucose, triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood of birds. It did not show an effect of the time of addition.

The existing study was conducted to evaluate calcium; vitamin D and calcitonin concentration in two types of amniotes that live in the Iraqi environment include the local rabbit and the Japanese quail. The study included 18 female Japanese quail Coturnix coturnix, weighing 145.5 ± 34.341 g, they were 16 weeks in ages and 18 female local rabbits, Oryctolagus cuniculus, at the age of one years and 1438.5 ± 284.988 g in weight. The results showed that the mean serum calcium concentration in bird and rabbit were 8.134±0.450 (mg/dl) and 7.267±1.761 (mg/dl) respectively and it was significantly at at 0.066 higher in bird in comparison to rabbit, the mean of vitamin D in bird and rabbit were 24.22± 3.159 (ng/ml) and 28.43±4.632 (ng/ml) respectively and it was significantly higher in rabbit than bird at 0.007 while the mean serum calcitonin concentration in bird and rabbit were 1.354±0.1960 (mg/dl) and 1.676±0.4151 (mg/dl) respectively and it was significantly at 0.009 higher in rabbit in comparison to bird. Egg laying, shell calcification and medullary bone formation induce more extra demand of calcium in birds while the high rate of teeth erupting demand extra calcium in rabbits, the metabolism of vitamin D will be altered indirectly by these process which associated with increased requirements for calcium. The study showed an increase in the level of calcium in both rabbits and quail birds, and that this increase will change the metabolism of vitamin D, and many physiological processes will occur.

This study was used 100 laying hens, for the period from 10/26/2021 till 3/5/2022 to studying the effect of LEI0258 marker on some productive traits of Iraqi local chickens, Productive traits were measured from the sexual maturity up to 100 days for each chicken, the blood samples were collected from 100 laying hens at the age of 38 weeks from a brachial vein. The LEI0258 marker have 11 alleles were (A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2, C3, D1). The results showed that there were a high significant differences (P ≤0.01) for (A1, B1) alleles compared with different alleles of percentage number and genetic distribution with a percentage of (18 %). there was a significant effect (P ≤0.05) in age at sexual maturity for different alleles, while in weight at sexual maturity there were non-significant difference between different alleles. Egg weight trait showed that there was a significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) for the periods (14, 42, 70, 100) day, and non-significant differences in the productive periods (28, 56, 84, 98) day. Feed intake ratio recorded non-significant differences in the period (14, 28, 42, 98, 100) day, while it recorded a significant difference (P ≤0.05) in the productive periods (56, 70, 84) day between different alleles. The qualitative traits revealed a significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) for (shell weight, yolk weight, yolk height, yolk diameter, egg white weight, egg diameter, egg white height, and HU unit), While non-significant differences in shell thickness between the different alleles.
