“…However, some studies have demonstrated that yeast culture or the components in yeast-derived products elevated the weight of various organs of broilers and facilitated the growth of organs, thus improving the health status of the body. [28][29][30] In this study, dietary YH supplementation enhanced relative weight of liver and spleen in broilers, implying that supplementing YH promoted the development of organs so as to elevate the metabolism function and growth rate of broilers.…”

BACKGROUND Yeast hydrolysate (YH) has multiple salutary biological activities. Nevertheless, the application of YH in broiler production is limited. This study was conducted to evaluate the protective effects of YH derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by exploring growth performance, serum parameters, organs relative weight, carcass traits, meat quality and antioxidant status of broilers. RESULTS Supplementing YH linearly and quadratically improved (P < 0.05) body weight gain and gain‐to‐feed ratio compared to that in the control group. Triglycerides, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and total cholesterol in serum, the decline in pH and cooking loss of breast muscle, and malonaldehyde concentration in serum and liver were decreased linearly and/or quadratically by YH (P < 0.05), whereas high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol in serum, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px) activities in serum, GSH‐Px activity in liver, glutathione content in serum and liver, eviscerated yield rate and chest muscle yield, and the relative weight of spleen and liver were linearly and/or quadratically increased (P < 0.05). Moreover, YH enhanced the mRNA levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2, heme oxygennase‐1 (HO‐1), GSH‐Px1 and SOD1 (linear and/or quadratic, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Dietary YH beneficially affected growth performance, serum parameters, organ relative weight, carcass traits, meat quality and antioxidant status in broilers, indicating its potential application as a promising feed additive in broiler production. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.
