The results showed that supplementation in group D had a moderate effect on posttreatment growth performance, relative organ weight, and biochemical parameters.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:An experiment was conducted to study the efficacy of citrus fruit oil on growth parameters and biochemical parameters of broilers in 4 groups with 2 replicates of 20 chicks in each.
📊
Key Findings & Data:Standard broiler diet without aflatoxin was given to group A, basal diet + citrus fruit oil 2.5 g kg-1 to group B, basal diet + 1 ppm aflatoxin to group C, and 1 ppm aflatoxin + basal diet + citrus fruit oil 2.5 g kg-1 to group D.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:The results showed that supplementation in group D had a moderate effect on posttreatment growth performance, relative organ weight, and biochemical parameters.

Abstract

An experiment was conducted to study the efficacy of citrus fruit oil on growth parameters and biochemical parameters of broilers in 4 groups with 2 replicates of 20 chicks in each. Standard broiler diet without aflatoxin was given to group A, basal diet + citrus fruit oil 2.5 g kg-1 to group B, basal diet + 1 ppm aflatoxin to group C, and 1 ppm aflatoxin + basal diet + citrus fruit oil 2.5 g kg-1 to group D. The results showed that supplementation in group D had a moderate effect on posttreatment growth performance, relative organ weight, and biochemical parameters. It is suggested that citrus fruit oil as a feed additive causes partial amelioration of aflatoxicosis.
