“…Similarly, the decreased abdominal fat percentage due to supplementation of dietary saponins was reported in broiler chicken (Miah et al, and Afrose et al, ) and Muscovy duck (Jiang et al, ). However, in contrast to our results Zhang et al () did not found any significant difference in the abdominal fat of chicken due to supplementation of dietary mango saponins for 21 or 42 days. The contrasting results may be due to the differences in genetics of birds, dose level and source of saponins.…”

“…Thus, excessive fat deposition causes the wastage of dietary energy and also reduces the carcass yield and affects consumer acceptance. In support to the results of present study, the dietary saponin have been reported to have no significant effect on the carcass characteristics of broiler chicken (Zhang et al, ). Similarly, the decreased abdominal fat percentage due to supplementation of dietary saponins was reported in broiler chicken (Miah et al, and Afrose et al, ) and Muscovy duck (Jiang et al, ).…”

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary soapnut (Sapindus mukorossi) shell powder (SSP), a cheap source of saponins, on growth performance, immunity, serum biochemistry and gut health of broiler chickens. The experimental design was 4×2, employing four saponin levels (0, 100, 150 and 200 mg/kg diet), each provided for two time durations (0–42 day and 21–42 day) resulting into eight dietary treatments. Results revealed no significant effect of dietary saponins on body weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio of birds. The abdominal fat percentage, heterophil to lymphocyte ratio, serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels, faecal total plate count, coliform count and E. coli count decreased (p < .05) progressively with increasing saponin levels and lower values were observed at 150 mg and 200 mg saponin levels. Significant improvement of cell‐mediated and humoral immune response was observed in birds fed 150 mg and 200 mg saponin compared to control. The serum glucose concentration was significantly (p < .05) higher in control group compared to other groups. No significant effects of dietary saponin were observed on carcass characteristics, faecal Lactobacillus count, intestinal histomorphometry and cost economics of broiler chicken production. Thus, dietary saponins at 150 mg/kg diet as SSP for three weeks (21–42 days) was optimum for better immunity and welfare of birds without adverse effects on the growth performance.

“…The reduction of ALP activity reflected MSK may make cell membrane stabilization and protect liver cells from damage (Baba et al, 2016). These results are in agreement with findings by Zhang et al (2016) who found that no differences in AST and ALT activity when broilers fed diet containing 0.14 and 0.28 % mango saponin. In addition, Daudu et al (2015) recorded that serum ALP activity for broiler chickens fed mango kernel soaked was significantly lower than birds fed control diet.…”

“…While triglyceride content was not affected by replacing dietary corn with MSK levels. Our finding was supported by Zhang et al (2016) who reported that dietary 0.28% mango saponin supplementation decreased plasma total cholesterol content in cockerels. It could be explained by the presence of mangiferin in mango saponin.…”

An investigation was undertaken to study the effects of feeding mango seed kernel (MSK) as partially substituting of yellow corn on productive performance and physiological parameters of Gimmizah cockerels. A total number of 100 Gimmizah cockerels aged 28 days were distributed into four groups. Each group was represented by five replicates (5 cockerels per rep.) from 4 -16 wk of age. The first group (control) fed the basal diet. The second, third and fourth groups were fed the basal diet with the substitution of yellow corn with MSK with 10, 15 and 20%, respectively. Body weight and body weight gain were increased when used 10% level of MSK. Feed consumption was significantly decreased and feed conversion was significantly improved overall period for 10% MSK. Carcass characteristics had not affected. While, blood constituents (Hb, PCV%, RBCS, and WBCS counts) were significantly improved. Lymphocyte (L) count for birds fed 10 and 15% MSK was significantly increased and heterophils (H) count and H/L ratio was significantly decreased. The immunological status was significantly improved due to an increase in globulin, IgG and IgM for cockerels fed diets containing the MSK levels (10%,15%). Plasma cholesterol, CK and MDA was significantly decreased by increasing MSK levels. Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was significantly reduced when a cockerel fed diet containing 10 and 15% MSK. Bacterial count in the intestine and in fresh breast and thigh meat were decreasing by increasing MSK levels. All MSK levels used were shown better economic efficiency than the control group. The relative economic efficiency of 10% MSK replacement of corn increased with 48% than the control group. It could be concluded that MSK can be used up to 10% without any adverse effect on performance and improve blood parameters and the economic efficiency of Gimmizah cockerels during the growing period.

A total of 384 broiler chicken of same hatch and uniform body weight were used to assess the role of saponins in meat quality. The soapnut shell powder obtained from Sapindus mukorossi was used as a source of saponins. Following a 4 9 2 factorial design broiler chicken diets were supplemented with four saponin levels (0, 100, 150, 200 mg/kg diet) and each provided for 42 (0-42 day) and 21 days (21-42 day) resulting into eight dietary treatments. The results revealed that dietary saponin supplementation significantly (P \ 0.05) and progressively decreased the cholesterol, fat content, and peroxide values (after 30 days of 0°C storage) of breast and thigh meat. There was a progressive and significant (P \ 0.05) increase in the ABTS and DPPH values of broiler chicken meat with increasing dietary saponin levels. However, the effect of dietary saponin level of 150 mg did not differ significantly from 200 mg level. The peroxide values of breast and thigh meat after 30 days of storage and TBARS values of fresh breast and thigh meat as well as after 30 days of storage were significantly (P \ 0.05) higher in control group compared to other groups supplemented with different saponin levels which did not differ significantly (P [ 0.05) from each other. Further, significantly (P \ 0.05) better antioxidant and lipid oxidation status was observed by supplementing saponins for 42 days duration compared to 21 days. Thus, it was concluded that the dietary supplementation of 150 mg saponin/kg diet of broiler chicken for 42 day duration results in better meat quality with better lipid oxidative stability.
