Abstract

The article presents the study results on the effect of probiotic (Bacillus cereus IP 5832) and coumarin on the chemical and amino acid composition of body tissues when fed to broiler chickens together with the main diet. According to the experimental results, an increase in the concentration of dry matter by 0.27% and crude fat by 0.75% was found in the liver of young animals from the I experimental group compared to the control. At the end of the experiment, the broilers from the control group were inferior in the protein amount in the liver of the experimental poultry by 0.46%, 2.69 (P ≤0.05) and 1.16%. A similar pattern was observed when studying pectoral muscles' chemical composition on the 16 and 29 day study period; the accumulation of dry matter and protein in the poultry's pectoral muscles from the III experimental group by 0.7 and 0.71%; 0.89 and 1.21% relative to the control was revealed. Feeding broilers with a basic diet plus coumarin contributed to the accumulation of essential amino acids in their liver: lysine – by 1.05%, phenylalanine – by 0.41% and leucine-isoleucine by 0.63% relative to the control.
