IMPACT OF CINNAMON POWDER EXTRACT ON PRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE, BLOOD PARAMETERS, DIGESTIVE ENZYMES, IMMUNITY, ANTIOXIDANT AND MICROBIAL COUNT OF GROWING JAPANESE QUAILS
This study aimed to investigate the effects of cinnamon powder extract (CPEx) on the intestinal microbial populations, serum indices and growth performance of Japanese quail. A total of 320 Japanese quail, aged ten days, were randomly divided into four treatment groups, each consisting of four replicates of 20 birds, for a feeding study lasting 38 days. The dietary treatments included a control group (a basal diet without CPEx), as well as three other groups that received the basal diet supplemented with CPEx at levels 150, 250 and 500 ppm/ kg, respectively. The results demonstrated that quails receiving diets supplemented with 250 and 500 ppm CPEx/ kg diet exhibited the highest live body weight, body weight gain, growth rate and performance index, with statistical significance (P ≤ 0.01). Moreover, quails fed 250 and 500 ppm CPEx /kg diet displayed the best feed conversion ratio and the lowest feed intake. Additionally, quails provided 250 and 500 ppm CPEx/ kg diet demonstrated the lowest total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, ALT, AST, TBARS, populations of Escherichia coli and Salmonella, with the highest levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), amylase, lipase, trypsin, immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin M (IgM) and population of Lactobacilli compared with control (P ≤ 0.01). Lastly, quails received 150ppm CPEx/ kg diet exhibited the highest levels of GSH-PX and immunoglobulin G (IgG). In conclusion, the inclusion of 250 and 500 ppm CPEx/ kg quails' feed resulted in improved growth performance, antioxidant capacity, blood biochemical parameters, immunological indices and intestinal microbiota in growing Japanese quails.
