Abstract

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary marigold extract supplementation on serum biochemical indices, antioxidant and immune capacities of broilers. A total of 192 one-day-old Arbor Acres (AA) chickens were randomly divided into 3 groups with 8 replicates of 8 chickens each. Chickens in the control group were fed a basal diet and the others in test groups were fed basal diets added with 0.15% and 0.60% marigold extract (the effective composition content of lutein was 30 and 120 mg/kg), respectively. Test period was 42 d. The results showed as follows:compared with the control group, 1) the levels of serum triglyceride and low density lipoprotein cholesterin of broilers in 0.60% marigold extract supplementation group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), while the high density lipoprotein cholesterin level was significantly increased (P<0.05); 2) the serum total antioxidant capacity and activities of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase of broilers at 21 and 42 days of age in 0.15% and 0.60% marigold extract supplementation groups were significantly increased (P<0.05); 3) the indices of thymus, spleen and bursal of Fabricius of broilers at 21 days of age in 0.60% marigold extract supplementation group were significantly increased (P<0.05), the levels of serum immunoglobulin M, immunoglobulin G and interleukin-2 were significantly increased by dietary marigold extract supplementation (P<0.05), while there were no significant effects on immune organ indices of broilers at 42 days of age with the marigold extract supplementation (P>0.05). It is concluded that dietary supplementation with marigold extract can increase the antioxidant and immune capacities and regulate lipids metabolism of broiler chickens.
