Abstract:
This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of lysophospholipid and vitamin C on performance, carcass characteristics and immune response of broiler chicks reared under thermonatural and high ambient . A total of 1680 mixed sexes broiler chicks (Cobb 500) in finishing rearing period (days 21-38 of age) allotted to two groups. In the first group, 480 chicks were subjected to four treatments with four replicates (n=30) and maintained in usual ambient temperature (24±1°C, thermonatural group: TN). In second group, the 1200 chicks were subjected to four treatments with 10 replicates (n=30), and exposed to high ambient temperature (34±1°C for 8 h daily, heat-stressed group: HS). Based on a 2 × 2 factorial arrangements in both groups, four experimental diets including LPLs (0 or 1000 mg/kg) and VC (0 or 500 mg/kg) were formulated and fed the chickens. In both groups, LPLs decreased body weight gain and increased FCR (P<0.05). In HS group, increased livability, antibody against bronchitis, relative weight of bursa and thymus were observed in chickens fed LPLs-supplemented diet (P<0.05) and increased relative weight of thymus and spleen were detected in chicks fed the VC-supplemented diet (P<0.05). In TN group, increased relative length of jejunum in birds fed LPLs-supplemented diet (P<0.05) and a significant interaction between LPLs and VC on response to phytohemagglutinin were detected. In conclusion, dietary supplemental LPLs and VC improved immune response of broiler chickens.
