Abstract
This study was conducted to know the effect of adding Bee Propolis to a diet in some biochemical, immunological traits and intestinal microflora of broiler chickens, where 225 unsexed broiler chicks were used, The chicks were randomly divided into five treatments, each treatment was 45 birds, and each treatment was divided into three replicates, each replicate of 15 birds, the Bee Propolis material was added with the diet and at levels (0, 2, 2.5, 3& 3.5 g Bee Propolis/kg feed) and for treatments T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 respectively. The chicks were raised for 35 days, and during the study period, we reached the following results: a significant difference (P<0.05) for the treatment T1 in glucose, uric acid, AST (Aspartate amino transferase) and height significant (P<0.01) in cholesterol concentration compared to the rest of the studied treatments, and a significant excelled (P<0.05) for the T2 treatment in the ALT (Alanine amino transferase) concentration compared with the rest of the treatments studied, The results also indicated that there was significant (P<0.05) increased for T3 and T5 in the protein level, a significant increased (P<0.05) for the T3 in IgG (immunoglobulin Gama) and IgM (immunoglobulin Mua) and T5 in IgA (immunoglobulin Alpha), a significant superior (P<0.05) for T1 and T2 in E.coli bacteria in jejunum and superior T5 in lactobacilli in jejunum and ileum meanwhile height significant (P<0.01) for T1 and T2 in E.coli bacteria in ileum this is at 14 days for age, while in 35 days for age significant superior for T1 and T2 in E.coli, T4 and T5 in lactobacilli in jejunum and ileum.
