Efficacy of Probiotics on Health Status and Growth Performance of Eimeria tenella Infected Broiler Chickens

A probiotic containing Pediococcus acidilactici and Bacillus subtilis (Smart ProLive) at a 1x107 CFU/mL dose in drinking water were given continuously from the d 14 to the end of the treatment (d 35) in broiler chickens. Experimental infection was produced by oral gavage of sporulated E. tenella oocysts at 14th d of age. Feed consumption (FC), live body weight (LBW) and feed consumption rate (FCR) were measured at weekly basis. Villus height and crypt depth in cecum and ileum, and antibody titers in the blood were performed at 28-day-old. Probiotics appeared to be superior to salinomycin on the villus height and crypt depth of cecum and ileum (P0.05) improvement on the LBW was determined at the groups of probiotic and salinomycin+probiotic than that of control and salinomycin groups. Nevertheless, FC and FCR results of the probiotic and salinomycin+probiotic groups were good than that of control and salinomycin groups. Probiotics were effctive on the villus heights and crypt depths than that of salinomycin alone. Salinomycin appeared to be good only than control group in all the parameters. Not a significant diffrence from antibody titers was existed among the groups. Based on these results it can be concluded that a good source of probiotics can be used as natural antimicrobial growth promoters in replacement with forbidden anticoccidials in broiler rearing.

Probiyotiklerin Eimeria tenella İle Enfekte Broiler Piliçlerin Sağlık Durumu ve Verim Performansı Üzerine Etkileri

Pediococcus acidilactici ve Bacillus subtilis içeren bir probiyotik (Smart ProLive) 14. günden 35. güne kadar içme suyu ile birlikte sürekli olarak 1x107 KOB/mL dozunda broiler civcivlere verildi. Deneysel enfeksiyon 14 günlük civcivlere sporlu E. tenella ookistleri ağız yoluyla verilerek yapıldı. Yem tüketimi, canlı ağırlıklar ve yemden yararlanma oranları haftalık olarak takip edildi. Sekum ve ileumda villus yüksekliği ve kript derinliği ile antikor titre analizi 28 günlük civcivlerde yapıldı. Probiotiklerin sekum ve ileumda villus yüksekliği ve kript derinliği üzerindeki olumlu etkisi salinomisinden daha üstün bulundu (P0.05) canlı ağırlık artışı probiyotik ve probiyotik+salinomisin grubunda control ve salinomisin grubuna göre daha yüksek bulundu. Ancak, yem tüketimi ve yemden yararlanma konusunda probiyotik ve probiotik+salinomisin grupları kontrol ve salinomisin gruplarındakinden üstündü. Salinomisin tüm parametrelerde sadece control grubundan üstün olabildi. Antikor titreleri bakımından gruplar arasında fark gözlenmedi. Elde edilen bulgular ışığında iyi bir probiyotiğin kullanımı riskli ve direnç oluşumuna neden olabilecek antikoksidiyaller yerine doğal antimikrobiyal büyütme faktörü olarak kullanılabileceği öne sürülebilir
