The effect of administration MarolisTM probiotic on haematology profile and organs function (liver and kidney) of broiler chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus Linnaeus, 1758)

Abstract

MarolisTM is one of commercial probiotic product in the world of animal husbandry. MarolisTM contains various microbes that can help increase growth and improve animal health. The research aimed to determine the effect of MarolisTM on hematological profile and health of broiler chickens through organs function test. This study used 40 broiler chickens, consisted of 4 treatment groups based, they are control group without probiotic, probiotic treatment group with a concentration of 0,5 ml, 0,1 ml, and 1,5 ml in drinking water for 42 days. The parameter observed are hematology comprising the number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin, number of leukocyte and differential count, and measurement of SGPT and creatinine levels. Data obtained were analyzed by one way ANOVA and continued with Duncan test. The results showed that administration of MarolisTM probiotic no effect on creatinine and SGPT levels, also did not effect the number of leukocytes, hemoglobin and number of diffrential leukocytes expect monocytes. The administration of Marolis probiotics has no significant effect on creatinine and SGPT levels, haemoglobin levels, and number of leukocyte, but has a significant effect on decreasing of leukocytes count especially monocytes. There is a tendency of administration Marolis probiotic is able to increase the number of erythrocytes back to normal levels.
