The Effect of Dietary Sumac Fruit Powder (Rhus Coriaria L.) On Performance and Blood Antioxidant Status of Broiler Chickens Under Continuous Heat Stress Condition

Abstract: The effects of different levels of 0.0 sumac fruit powder (Z-SFP), 0.25 (L-SFP), 0.50 (M-SFP) and 1% (H-SFP) along with 100 mg/kg alpha tocopherol acetate (VE) were investigated on performance and blood antioxidant status of broiler chickens under heat stress condition. L-SFP, M-SFP and VE birds showed higher body weight gain (BWG) than Z-SFP and H-SFP birds during the starter period (P<0.05). No significant differences were observed among the treatments for feed intake (FI) during the starter, grower and whol… Show more

“…To ameliorate the impacts of thermal stress in birds, dietary modifications with commercial feed additives are considered the most practical and favored methods. Phytogenic feed additives rich in antioxidants have been advocated as possible viable options to alleviate the influence of the heat challenges on chickens ( Sharbati et al, 2013 ; Oke et al, 2017 , 2021a , 2021b ; Oke, 2018 ; Kpomasse et al, 2021 ). Hence, broilers’ growth and immunity could also be enhanced when some medicinal feed additives are included in their diets during periods of heat stress.…”
