PRODUCTIVITY, METABOLITES OF BLOOD SERUM LIPID METABOLISM AND CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF THE BROILER CHICKEN LIVER ON THE BACKGROUND OF FEEDING EMULSIFIERS

Abstract

Emulsifiers are used in animal nutrition to improve fat emulsification and increase absorption. The liver is the central organ controlling lipid homeostasis. The aim of the research was identification the effect of feeding various types of substances with emulsifying properties: soy lecithin and Lesimaks Premium feed additive on productivity, metabolites of lipid metabolism in blood serum and the chemical composition of the liver of broiler chickens. Our studies show the effectiveness of "Lesimaks Premium" to a greater extent in comparison with soy lecithin. By the end of the experiment, the lead in live weight of broiler chickens compared to the control was 7.9%. In the experiment, both emulsifiers changed the fatty acid composition of the liver, while oleic acid increased and linoleic acid decreased in the liver, against the background of an increase in HDL and a decrease in serum LDL. The study highlights the promising potential for improving broiler performance through the use of emulsifiers in diets.
