ABSTRACT
This study was investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with prebiotics beta-glucan, MOS 500 and Bio MOS [registered sign] on the broilers performance, biochemical parameters and immune response for 5 weeks. One hundred and twenty 1-day-old broiler chickens were randomly assigned to 4 dietary treatment groups as follows: control, beta-glucan [1g/kg], MOS 500 [0.5g/kg] and Bio MOS [registered sign] [1g/kg]. Each treatment was divided into three replicates [ten birds/ replicate]. The overall BW gains of birds treated with prebiotics were significantly [P <0.01] higher than those of the control group. During the experiment, the birds fed supplemental Bio MOS [registered sign] gave the best FCR followed by beta-glucan MOS 500 and then the control group. Addition of these prebiotics were improved the levels of serum total protein and globulin which in turn support the immune function against NDV and IBDV. In addition to, supplementation of broiler chicks by beta-glucan, MOS 500 and Bio-MOS [registered sign] had no effect on the liver transmination enzymes and some kidney function which represent the non pathological metabolism of the liver and kidneys indicating their safety supplementation in broiler feed
