Aluminium Intake Impact on Broiler Chickens During a Production Cycle on Some Bioproductive Parameters

The study was carried out on broiler chickens divided in 3 experimental groups (E1,E2, E3), fed during 7 weeks with a diet containing 20, 70 and 200 ppm Al, as aluminium oxide/ DM of the ration, and a control group. The goal of the study was to evaluate the effect of dietary aluminium oxide on some...

Description
Summary:The study was carried out on broiler chickens divided in 3 experimental groups (E1,E2, E3), fed during 7 weeks with a diet containing 20, 70 and 200 ppm Al, as aluminium oxide/ DM of the ration, and a control group. The goal of the study was to evaluate the effect of dietary aluminium oxide on some bioproductive parameters (daily and weekly medium weight gain, daily medium feed consumption and feed conversion rate).Conclusions: excepting E3 group, both daily and weekly medium weight gain were inferiors to control group; daily medium feed consumption was lower on experimental groups than on control group and feed conversion rate was slightly higher on experimental groups than on control group.
