Hemoglobin Level and Total Differential Blood Leucocytes of Broiler Chicken Given Different Probiotics

Abstract

The use of adding probiotics to drinking water is an alternative to reduce the accumulation of additional chemical feed residues in meat, which functions to maintain the balance of the microflora ecosystem in the digestive tract and provide enzymes that can digest crude fiber, protein, fat and detoxify toxic substances or metabolites. This study aimed to determine the hemoglobin level and total differential leukocyte blood of broiler chickens given different probiotics using 100 broiler strains of MB 202 platinum with 20 cages with a size of 80X80 cm. The research design used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications consisting of 5 chickens for each replication. The results showed that blood hemoglobin levels had a significant effect (P>0.05) and the administration of different probiotics into drinking water had no significant effect (P>0.05) on the differential value of leukocytes (monocytes, eosinophils, heterophils, and basophils) in broiler blood, but giving different probiotics had a significant effect (P<0.05) on blood lymphocyte levels in broiler chickens.
