| dc.description.abstract | A biological trial was conducted to study the effects of supplementation of turmeric, black pepper and their combinations (turmeric and black pepper) as phytogenic feed additive in Japanese quails on growth performance, carcass traits, serum biochemical profile, organoleptic characteristics and cost economics of Japanese quail. One-hundred-and-fifty-day old quail chicks were distributed randomly in to five treatments with three replicates containing ten birds each and fed with five experimental diets T1 (Basal diet), T2 (Basal diet supplemented with 0.75% turmeric), T3 (Basal diet supplemented with 1% black pepper), T4 (Basal diet supplemented with 0.25% turmeric and 0.5% black pepper) and T5 (Basal diet supplemented with 0.5% turmeric and 1% black pepper). The results of present study revealed no significant difference in 5th week mean body weights where the mean body weights ranged from 197.56 to 211.90 g. No significant difference was noticed pertaining to cumulative body weight gains. The mean feed intake ranged from 645.10 to 670.10 and feed efficiency ranged from 3.25 to 3.54 and were not significantly influenced by various levels of turmeric, black pepper and their combinations. The serum albumin was significantly (p<0.01) increased among the treatment groups from T1 to T5. Serum globulin was significantly (p<0.01) increased in T4 and T5 when compared with T1, T2 and T3. Serum total protein values were significantly (p<0.01) increased in T3, T4 and T5 when compared with control. Mean serum total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides levels showed significant (p<0.01) decrease and serum HDL cholesterol was significantly (p<0.01) increased among the treatment groups from T1 to T5. Carcass traits like mean dressing percentage, mean weights of liver, heart and gizzard did not show any significant difference among the treatment groups. The sensory evaluation scores were improved significantly (p<0.05) pertaining to juiciness, tenderness and overall acceptability when compared with the control and the highest score for overall acceptability was observed in T4. The feed cost per Kg live weight gain was significantly (p<0.01) increased among the treatment groups where the values ranged from 104.01 to 146.23 rupees and the lowest value was recorded in control only. | en_US |
