Efecto del deshidratado molido de <b><i>eryngium foetidum</i></b> en los parámetros bioquímicos de la sangre de pollos de engorde

Abstract

The present investigation work was carried out in the ship N ° 1 of the Granja Santa Inés in the Academic Unit of Agricultural Sciences of the University of Machala, located in the city of Machala of the province of El Oro, which is located geographically in the following coordinates: Latitude: 3 ° 17 '16 ", longitude: 79 ° 54' 05", whose altitude is recorded at 5 meters above sea level and with a temperature that ranges from 22 to 35 ° C. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the inclusion of ground dehydrated plant Eryngium foetidum in the balanced, by means of blood biochemical tests in Cobb 500 mixed chickens, for this a completely randomized design was employed using 200 Cobb 500 mixed chickens, bred up to 42 days, using the respective biosecurity measures for open sheds, applied to 5 experimental treatments: the 1 T1 treatment (control) was given a normal balance, elaborated with antibiotic and growth promoter acquired in a "Balmar" balanced processing plant located in Cantón Balsas, Province of El Oro; to treatment 2 (T2) the same food purchased in the processing plant, but without antibiotic or growth promoter, and in its replacement was used 0,10% of the ground dehydrated Eryngium foetidum, in treatment 3 (T3) 0, 25% of the milled dehydrated Eryngium foetidum, in treatment 4 (T4) 0,50% of the milled dehydrated Eryngium foetidum and in treatment 5 (T5) 0,75% of the milled dehydrated Eryngium foetidum, each with 4 experimental units of 10 chickens (40 animals per treatment). For the blood chemistry methodology, 2 birds were taken at random for each experimental unit (8 birds per treatment), sacrificed by cervical dislocation prior to fasting in the 6-hour birds, making a cut in the left jugular vein. , and discarding the first jets of blood to avoid the possible contamination of the sample, placing of the same 8,5 ml in a red cap tube with gel separator, to be later analyzed in the laboratory. The variables studied were: weight of the white viscera (gizzard, intestine) and red (lungs, kidneys, liver, spleen), thickness of the abdominal fat, weight of the processes that were given to the breast (fresh, frozen, thawed) , boneless and cooked) and blood biochemistry (cholesterol, triglycerides, total proteins, HDL, VLDL and LDL), meat was also evaluated organoleptically (taste, smell, tenderness and juiciness), making a tasting to the consumer with a total of 100 tasters The statistical results were obtained by using the Statgraphics Centurion XV.I program, concluding that only significant statistical difference was found in liver weight (T1: 53,0 g, T2: 44,0 g., T3: 41,4 g., T4: 46,8 g and T5: 38,6 g.) and in triglycerides (T1: 83,3 mg/dl, T2: 63,2 mg/dl, T3: 64,7 mg/dl , T4: 68,2 mg/dl and T5: 69, 7 mg/dl) showed an arithmetic difference, being higher in the control when compared with the other treatments.
