Abstract

A study was conducted to examine the effect of dietary supplementation of multiple probiotics (EM) on growth performance, blood cholesterol, intestinal micro flora, and fecal gas emission in broiler chicks. A total of 450 one day old male broiler chicks (Ross $\times$ Ross) were divided into six treatments with five replications in each treatment for five weeks. Treatments were factorially designed with two levels of diet containing probiotics (DW; 0, $0.2\%$) and three levels of drinking water containing probiotics (DW; 0, 0.01, $0.1\%$). Basal diets contained $21.5\%$ CP and 3,100 kcal/kg ME for starting and $19\%$ CP and 3,100 kcal/kg ME for finishing period. Weight gain, feed intake, and feed conversions of birds fed with probiotics were not significantly different between Ds. Total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were significantly lower (P<0.05) in birds fed with DW $0.01\%$ or $0.1\%$ compared with no probiotics group, but there was no significant difference between D treatments. The number of E. coli, Salmonella and Lactobacillus in the ileum and cecum of the birds fed multiple probiotics were not significantly different from those of no probiotic groups. There were no significant differences in the $CO_2$ gas emissions of fecal between birds fed with Ds or among birds fed with DW. However, $NH_3$ gas emissions of DW $0.1\%$ were significantly lower (P<0.05) than DW $0\%$. In the results of this study, supplementation of probiotics tended to decrease the serum cholesterol and triglyceride compared to those of control groups and reduction of fecal $NH_3$ gas emission.

본 시험은 육계에서 생균제의 효과를 구명하고자 사료와 음수에 혼합 생균제를 수준별로 첨가하여 5주간 사양시험을 시행하였다. 처리구는 Bacillus sp., Lactobacillus sp., Saccharomyces sp., Rhdobacter sp., Aspergillus sp. 균으로 이루어진 혼합 생균제를 사료에 0, $0.2\%$ 수준으로 첨가하였고, 음수에는 0, 0.1, $1.0\%$ 수준으로 급여하였다. 시험사료는 조단백질 함량을 전, 후기 각각 $21.5\%$$19.0\%$로 하였고, 에너지는 전, 후기 3,100 kcal/kg 수준으로 배합하였다. 조사항목은 생산능력을 주간별로 측정하였고, 시험 종료시 혈중 콜레스테롤 함량, 회장과 맹장의 내용물에서 E. coli, Salmonella, Lactobacillus 균수, 분에서 암모니아와 이산화탄소 가스 발생 량을 조사하였다. 본 시험의 결과, 생균제를 사료에 첨가하여 급여한 D $0.2\%$ 급여구는 D $0\%$ 급여구와 비교하여 증체량, 사료섭취량, 사료요구율이 모든 조사기간에서 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 사료 급여구간에 혈중 총콜레스테롤, HDL, LDL-cholesterol 및 중성지방의 함량은 통계적인 차이는 없었지만, 음수 급여구에서 DW $1.0\%$ 처리구의 혈중 총콜레스테롤 함량은 DW $0\%$ 처리구에 비하여 유의적으로 감소하였다. (P<0.05). 또한 중성지방 함량은 DW $0.1\%$ 처리구에서 DW $0\%$ 처리구에 비하여 현저하게 감소하였지만(p<0.05), HDL과 LDL-cholesterol의 함량은 차이가 없었다. 장내 미생물인 E. coli, Salmonella, Lacfobacillu 균수는 회장과 맹장에서 사료와 음수 급여시 차이가 없었다. 계분의 암모니아와 이산화탄소 발생량은 사료 급여시 D $0\%$와D $0.2\%$ 처리구간에 차이가 없었지만, 음수 급여시 DW $0.1\%$ 처리구는 다른 처리구에 비하여 암모니아 가스 배출량이 유의하게 감소하였다(P<0.05). 한편, 이산화탄소 발생량은 DW 처리구간에 차이가 없었다. 이러한 실험 결과, 생균제의 급여는 육계의 생산성과 장내 미생물의 변화에는 영향을 미치지 않았으나 음수로 급여시 혈중 콜레스테롤과 중성지방의 함량을 감소시켰고, 분내 암모니아 가스 발생량을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.
