This experiment was conducted to study the effects of soybean lecithin emulsifier supplementation in two energy level diets on growth performance, nutrient availability and serum biochemical indices of broilers. A randomized complete block design with 2?2 factors was adopted in the experiment and 960 one-day-old Cobb 500 male broilers were randomly assigned to 4 groups with 6 replicates in each group and 40 birds in each replicate. Chickens were fed the experimental diets composed of two energy levels and two emulsifier supplementation levels. Dietary metabolizable energy levels were 12.13 and 11.92 MJ/kg for chickens at 1 to 21 days of age, and were 12.96 and 12.65 MJ/kg for chickens at 22 to 49 days of age. Meanwhile, the supplementation levels of emulsifier were 0 and 265 mg/kg for chickens at 1 to 21 days of age, and were 0 and 400 mg/kg for chickens at 22 to 49 days of age. Growth performance of chickens, apparent availability of energy, dry matter, crude protein and crude fat, as well as contents of glucose, lipids and bile acid were measured in the experiment. The results showed that the average daily gain of broilers at 1 to 21 days of age fed normal energy diet was significantly higher than that of broilers fed low energy diet (P<0.01), and the feed/gain of broilers at 1 to 49 days of age fed low energy diet with emulsifier supplementation could reach that the level of broilers fed normal energy diet. The supplementation of emulsifier in diets could increase the average daily gain and the apparent availability of ether extract and energy of diets, promote bile secretion, and significantly decrease the feed/gain of broilers at 1 to 21 days and 1 to 49 days of age (P<0.05). In conclusion, the decrease of dietary energy can significantly decrease the average daily gain of broilers at 1 to 21 days of age, and increase feed/gain of broilers at 1 to 21 days and 1 to 49 days of age; the supplementation of emulsifier in diets can improve feed efficiency, especially in low energy diets of broilers at 1 to 21 days of age.
