“…This study contradicts the findings of Adebayo et al 3 and Akin-Osanaiyeet al 19 who reported non-significant difference in body weight and a significant increase in body weight respectively. However, it corresponds with the findings of Azoret al 20 who reported a significant decrease in body weight.…”

Objective: The study was aimed at determining the effect of graded doses of Chrysophyllumalbidum on the kidney. Materials and Methods: Twenty wistar rats (190-220 grams) were used in this study and they were randomly allocated into four groups of five rats each. Group A received food and distilled water only while groups B, C and D were treated with 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg 300 mg/kg of Chrysophyllumalbidum leaf extract respectively. The study lasted for three weeks after which the animals where sacrificed and their blood samples and kidney collected for examination. Results: The result from this study showed a significant decrease (p<0.05) in body weight in group of all treated groups. Also, there was a significant increase (p<0.05) in kidney weight in group C but a non-significant increase (p>0.05) in group B and D when compared to group A. In addition, the serum urea and creatinine level showed a significant decrease (p<0.05) in the treated groups when compared with that of group A. Histopathological findings revealed a mild to moderate changes in the cytoarchitecture of the kidney. Conclusion: This result of this study suggests that ethanolic leaf extract of Chrysophyllumalbidum may have the tendency of being toxic to the kidney tissue when consumed at higher doses.

“…This implies that the test feedstuff contains adequate oil to meet the requirement of the experimental birds [11]. [28] observed that high blood urea levels in birds are associated with poor utilization of protein in the diets. Significant differences were however observed in serum globulin and albumin, which give important information of blood protein.…”

An 8-week study was conducted to evaluate the influence of molasses treated cassava peel meal (MTCPM) based diet as substitute for maize on haemato-biochemical parameters of broiler chickens. Five experimental diets were formulated to meet nutrient requirement standards of broilers. Diet 1 (0 % MTCPM) served as the control while diets 2, 3, 4 and 5 contained 25, 50, 75 and 100 % MTCPM respectively replacing maize in the diets of birds. A total of one hundred and fifty (150) day-old broiler chicks were randomly allotted into five treatment groups with three replicates of ten birds each. Each group was assigned to the five experimental diets in completely randomized design (CRD). Throughout the experimental period, feed and water were provided ad libitum for all treatment groups. There were no significant differences (P>0.05) in all the haematological parameters measured. The values obtained for packed cell volume (36.21- 38.19 %), white blood cell (4.18 - 4.20 x 103/ml), red blood cell (4.48 - 4.86 x 106/ml), haemoglobin (11.96-12.68 g/dl) were similar regardless of MTCPM level in the diet. The results of the serum biochemical indices of broiler chickens fed MTCPM based diet revealed that the serum protein (2.01 – 2.43 mg/dl) level increased (P<0.05) among birds fed 50 % MTCPM based diet compared to others. The dietary inclusion of MTCPM did not significantly (P>0.05) influence the cholesterol (0.92-1.19 mmol/l), glucose (6.40-6.91 mmol/l), and urea (0.69-0.80 mg/dl) compositions of the broilers fed the experimental diets. It was concluded that MTCPM has a high potential as feed ingredient in poultry diets and could be included in the diet of broiler birds without any deleterious effect on health status of the birds.

Background. High cost of feed ingredients and increased demand for broiler chicken in many African countries has necessitated the search for alternative feed sources. Objective. To evaluate the effects of Hyphaene thebaica seed meal (HTSM) as substitute for maize on growth and blood parameters of broiler chickens. Methodology. Five experimental diets were formulated for the trial. Diet 1 (0% HTSM) served as the control while diets 2, 3, 4 and 5 contained 5, 10, 15 and 20% HTSM respectively replacing dietary maize in the diets of birds. A total of 225 day-old broiler chicks were randomly allotted into five treatment groups with three replicates of fifteen birds each. Each group was assigned to the five experimental diets in completely randomized design (CRD). Feed and water were supplied ad libitum for all treatment groups during the trial. Result. Differences (P<0.05) were observed in the growth parameters measured except average daily feed intake (P>0.05). Feed conversion ratio and average daily weight gain of birds fed 0, 5 and 10% HTSM diets were better (P<0.05) compared to those fed 15 and 20 % HTSM diets. Differences (P<0.05) were also observed in the blood parameters measured except the packed cell volume (29.08- 31.89%) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin (14.69-15.67pg). The white blood cell (11.45-18.14 x 109/l), red blood cell (4.71-6.99 x 1012/l), haemoglobin (6.92-10.05g/dl) and aspartate transaminase (72.95-90.16 IU/l), alanine aminotransaminase (62.84-79.50 IUu/l) and alkaline phosphatase (100.26-108.77 IU/l) increased (P<0.05) as the dietary levels of HTSM increased across the treatments. Carcass and organ weights of birds fed 0, 5 and 10% HTSM diets were better (P<0.05) than those fed 15 and 20% HTSM diets. Implication. Adequate processing of the HTSM is needed to reduce the anti-nutritional factors to a tolerable level before being used in broiler diet. Conclusion. Broiler chickens can tolerate up to 10% raw HTSM in their diets without adverse effect on growth performance.
