Penggunaan Ekstrak Metanol Bawang Putih (Allium sativum) Sebagai Feed AdditiveTerhadap Kualitas Karkas Ayam BroilerThe Use of Garlic Methanol Extract as Feed Additive on Carcass Quality of Broiler Chickens

Abstract

This study aims of the research were to know the effect of giving garlic (Allium sativum) that was extracted with methanol as a feed additive in broiler ration on feed intake and carcass quality of broiler (carcass weight, carcass weight percentage, carcass cholesterol, and abdominal fat weight) and drinking water consumption. The material at the research was used two hundred unsexed 1d-old chicks (Lohman strain) at broiler chickens. Designed of the research was using Completely Randomized Design consisting of five treatments and four replication were consist of 10 birds. Treatment groups were as follows P0 = drinking water without addition of garlic methanol extract (control): P1 = drinking water with addition of garlic methanol extract 250 ppm: P2 = drinking water with addition of garlic methanol extract 500 ppm: P3 = drinking water with addition of garlic methanol extract 750 ppm: P4 = drinking water with addition of garlic methanol extract 1000 ppm. The variables observed that were included feed intake, slaughter weight and carcass quality (carcass weight, carcass weight percentage, carcass cholesterol, and abdominal fat weight) and drinking water consumption. The results at the study that the used of garlic that was with methanol had a significant effect (P<0.05) increased feed intake, the slaughter weight and decreasing carcass cholesterol and abdominal fat weight, but not affecting on drinking water consumption and carcass weight percentage. The research concluded that the used of garlic (Allium sativum) that was extracted with methanol could be used up to 1000 ppm by increasing slaughter weight, carcass weight, and feed intake and reducing carcass cholesterol and abdominal fat weight.
