Quality control and safety of broiler chickens slaughter products amid hypotrophy

Abstract

The article studies the effect of different probiotics on the concentration of heavy metals in the muscle tissue of broiler chickens amid hypotrophy and their correction with probiotics. The experiment was conducted on broiler chickens of Smena 7 cross at ZAO “Orenburg Broiler” of the Orenburg region. The feeding and maintenance of broiler chickens were the same. The feeding ration comprised complete compound feed. The difference was as follows: hypotrophic experimental groups additionally included probiotics Vetom 1.1 at a dose of 6 g/kg feed and Lactobifadol at a dose of 1.2 g/kg feed in the main diet starting from one day of age to 42 days of age. The results obtained enable to determine that the probiotics used have a significant effect on the chemical parameters of broiler chicken meat particularly amid hypotrophy. It has been established that probiotics reduce the concentration of toxic elements in muscle tissue. It has also been proven that these probiotics do not significantly affect the content of heavy metals in the muscle tissue of broiler chickens.
