The Effect of Saccharomyces spp.Gb-9 (Isolated from Colon of Native Chicken) on the Growth Performance and Meat Cholesterol Level in Broilers

The present study was conducted to determine the effects of Saccharomyces spp. Gb-9 supplemented in diets as a probiotics sources on the growth performance and meat cholesterol level of 2-week old broilers. One hundried eighty 2-wk-old broilers were colony caged in an environmentally controlled house to evaluate the effect of Saccharomyces spp.Gb-9 supplemented in diets as a probiotics sources administration on broilers. Broilers were randomly divided into three equal groups: one served as a control and was administered with diets only. Theother two groups were administered 0.20% Saccharomyces spp. Gb-9 or 0.40% Saccharomyces spp. Gb-9, respectively. The results howed that supplementation of 0.20-0.40% Saccharomyces spp.Gb-9 culture in basal diets were decreased seginificantly different (P<0.05) were improved feed intake, drinking water, final body weight, body weight gains, and feed efficiency compared with controls, and were decreased significantly (P<0.05) different both on meat cholesterol levels and abdominal fat compared to the control. It can be concluded that supplementation of 0.20- 0.40% Saccharomyces spp.Gb-9 as a probiotics sources in diets were increase growth performance and decreased both meat cholesterol and abdominal fat of broiler Key words: Probiotics, Saccharomyces spp., Performances, Cholesterol and Broiler.
