“…Blood parameters are good indicators of physiological, pathological and nutritional status of an animal and changes in hematological parameters have the potential of being used to elucidate the impact of nutritional factors and additives supplied in diet on any living creature. For example, leukocytes are known increase sharply when infection occurs, as they are one of the first lines of defence of the body (Ganong, 1999;Alzawqari et al, 2011;Masoudi et al, 2011). Leukocyte counts also have been used as a measure of immune function in birds (Johnson and Zuk, 1998).…”

“…In this regard, several studies demonstrated that use of bile salts and emulsifiers in broiler diets did not improve feed efficiency ratio (Maisonnier et al, 2003;Karimi et al, 2011). While, Al-Zawqari et al (2010) reported that feed conversion ratio was improved in broilers fed diets with bile salts supplement. They stated that addition of bile salts to broiler diets increased lipid digestibility and improved the absorption situation in the small intestine.…”

“…Bile salts in aqueous solution spontaneously aggregate to form micelles, these also mix with lipid products during digestion to form mixed micelles and enhance absorption (Stamp and Jenkins, 2008). Several studies have been conducted to investigate the effects of bile salt supplements and emulsifiers on broiler performance (Maisonnier et al, 2003;Al-Zawqari et al, 2010;Guerreiro et al, 2011). The addition of bile salts to poultry diets has resulted in an improvement of fat absorption in chicks (Kussaibati et al, 1982).…”

“…However, no difference was observed on the red blood cells (RBC) and white blood cells (WBC) count among treatments (P 0.05). Previously, it is well suggested that the blood characteristics could be used as a good way to evaluate the feed quality for the broilers (Alzawqari et al 2011;Masoudi et al 2011). Kotrba´cek et al (1994) have reported that dietary algae Cholrella vularis supplementation improved the immune response of broilers by increasing phagocytic activity of leucocyte in blood.…”
