OtherItem Open Access Fertility and Hatchability Parameters Of Indigenous Siriividai Chicken Of Tamil Nadu Reared Under Extensive System Of Management(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2018-12) Churchil, R. Richard; Jamima, J.; Sangilimadan, K.; Srinivasan, G.; TANUVASA study was conducted in a indigenous Siruvidai chicken farm at Pappanad, Thanjavur district to evaluate the incubation parameters like fertility, hatchability and embryonic mortality pattern. The birds were reared in extensive system of management with the provision of night shelter. The sex ratio maintained was 1:5. The eggs were incubated at weekly interval in a small size automatic incubator of 1000 eggs capacity.OtherItem Open Access Qualitative and Biometric Characters of Aseel Male Chicken(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2018-12) Churchil, R. Richard; Jamima, J.; Machindra, Yadav Sunil; Kanagaraju, P.; Srinivasan, G.; TANUVASA study was conducted at Department of Poultry Science, Madras Veterinary College Chennai to record the qualitative characters of Aseel male chicken and to measure the biometric Characters of the birds. The colour of skin, shank and eye was yellow and the comb colour was red in all the birds (100%).OtherItem Open Access Rearing Pattern and Comparative Production Performance Of Pure Breed and Improved Varieties Of Native Chicken at Field Level(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2018-12) Jamima, J.; Veeramani, P.; Machindra, Yadav Sunil; Karunakaran, N.; TANUVASA survey was conducted at Kancheepuram district among 15 native chicken poultry farmers to study the rearing pattern and production performance at field level. Most of the farmers are rearing Assel and Kadaknath as pure breeds; Vanaraja, Gramapriya, Kairali as improved varieties tor egg and meat purpose. The day old chicks were purchased from FTC, kancheepuram and got trained on farming activities. The flock size was ranging from 25 to 500 with an average of (160.67:27.83) birds. About 50% of farmers rearing under extensive system and remaining 50% rearing under intensive system for egg production. Borewell is the main source of drinking water provided to the birds. Nearly 70% of the farmers utilizing the plastic waterers for watering the birds and remaining 30% are using nipple drinkers. All the farmers are regularly vaccinating their birds against Ranikhet disease.ArticleItem Open Access SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SELENIUM NANO PARTICLES BY HIGH ENERGY BALL MILLING (HEBM) TECHNIQUE(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2020-07) Jamima, J.; Veeramani, P.; Kanagaraju, P.; Kumanan, K.; TANUVASIn present day, supplementation of extra minerals and vitamins is highly essential in commercial diets due to high productivity and to withstand the detrimental effects of different stresses. Selenium is one of essential trace minerals for better growth and productivity as well as anti-stressor in commercial broilers. Nano-selenium can effectively be synthesized through High Energy Ball Milling (HEBM) technique from its precursor, for use in commercial broilers as anti-stressor and to support multiple bodily functions. The prepared nano particle had 44.5 % of selenium as measured by Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDAX) analysis with the product yield of 50 g/hr. The chemical composition of sodium selenite powder was same as that of the original mega particle. The size of Se nano particle ranged from 37-85 nm as analyzed through Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM). X-Ray diffraction pattern confirmed that the synthesized Se nano particle was free of impurities and provided accurate information on the atomic arrangements. The Fourier Transform Infra- Red (FTIR) spectrum of synthesized nano particle source of selenium peaks was located at 3023.26, 2800.12, 2502.23, 2314.17, 1610.40 and 1413.30 cm-1 which showed chemical bonding in a target material. The zeta potential of nano selenium was -23.30 mV when analyzed through particle size analyzer. Se nano-particles could be successfully synthesized through High Energy Ball Milling method from its precursor and could be characterized for its quantity, size, shape, stability and purity. The synthesized Se nano-particles could be utilized for the conduct of biological trial in commercial broilers.
