Effect of Adding Lycopene to the Ration on Some Blood Serum Biochemical Traits of Broiler Ross 308
Abstract
This study was conducted at Poultry Farm of Animal Resources Dept., College of Agriculture, University of AL-Qasim Green to investigate the effect of adding Lycopene to the ration on some blood serum biochemical traits of broiler Ross 308 . Use the 90 broiler chicks Ross 308 day-old were randomly assigned to three treatments (by 3 replicates per treatment 10 chicks per replicate), and treatments were as follows : control group without adding lycopene to the diet, add lycopene by 250 mg / kg feed ( first treatment) and add lycopene by 500 mg / kg feed ( second treatment) . The experiment included a study of the following characteristics: concentrations of glucose , protein , cholesterol and triglycerides .
The results indicated that the addition of lycopene by 250 and 500 mg / kg feed to broiler diet led to a significant improvement in blood serum biochemical traits of broiler .
