Abstract

Problem statement: As the intestinal function is intimately affected by fed diets, many kinds of natural substances, prebiotics and probiotics have been supplemented to broilers to increase poultry production by activating intestinal function. The aim of this study was to investigate whether Bacillus subtilis could improve the growth performance and serum biochemistry in broiler chicken.


Approach: A total of 200 broiler chicks were randomly assigned to 4 treatment groups, consisting of 2 replicates of 25 birds each. Commercial mash pre-starter, starter and finisher diets were supplemented with 50, 100 and 150 ppm of B. subtilis.


Results: Body weight gain was better in all the experimental groups than the control. The growth


performance was increased in 150 ppm of B. subtilis. Total cholesterol and Triglycerides were decreased, HDL, Serum Glutamine Pyruvic Transaminase (SGPT), Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) were increased.


Conclusion: This study shows that adding B. subtilis to the broiler diet could improve the growth performance, increase feed efficiency and regulate serum biochemical parameters. Based on our study, it could be recommended that addition of B. subtilis at 150 ppm (150 mg/kg) could improve the growth performance of broiler chicken
