Abstract:

One hundred seventy five 1 day old Ross broiler chicks were studied to know the potentiality of plants, Salicornia herbacea and Houttuynia cordata with probiotics (SHP) and suitable level in replacing antibiotic. For the study, the birds were divided into many groups: control (basal diet), antibiotic (basal diet+0.05% OTC) and 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0% SHP with basal diet. The birds were randomly arranged in a wire cage with 5 replications having 7 chicks in each. Significantly, highest protein percentage in broiler meat fed 2.0% SHP was recorded when compared with other groups (P<0.05). Crude fat significantly reduced in 1.0% SHP like antibiotic compared to 2.0% SHP and control group (P<0.05). The lipid oxidation of meat in SHP groups showed significantly lower values compared to control (P<0.05). Lowest abdominal fat was found in 0.5 to 1.0% SHP compared to 2.0% SHP and similar with antibiotic fed broilers (P<0.05). Mineral in meat (Fe and Mg) showed an increasing trend in the increasing level of SHP than other groups. Although no statistical differences were observed in n6/n3 fatty acids among the group, but there is a lowering trend noticed in 1.0% SHP fed broiler meat. In conclusion, addition of 1.0% SHP can be suitable level in improving meat quality and replacement of antibiotic that could be utilized for safe food for human as well as baby.
