Effect of clinoptilolite on serum biochemical and haematological characters of broiler chickens during aflatoxicosis
Scopus
Toplam 144 atıf DOI
Clinoptilolite (CLI, a natural zeolite) incorporated into the diet at 1.5 and 2.5 per cent were evaluated for their ability to reduce the deleterious effects of 2.5 mg total aflatoxin (AF) kg-1 diet on broiler chickens from 1 to 21 days of age. In total 360 broiler chicks were divided into six equal treatment groups (control, AF, CLI (1.5 per cent), AF plus CLI (1.5 per cent), CLI (2.5 per cent) and AF plus CLI (2.5 per cent)). When compared with the controls, AF treatment significantly decreased serum total protein, albumin, inorganic phosphorus, uric acid, total cholesterol and the values of haematocrit, red blood cell counts, mean corpuscular volume, haemoglobin, thrombocyte counts, percentage of monocyte counts; increased values of white blood cell and heterophil counts. The addition of CLI (1.5 per cent) and CLI (2.5 per cent) to the AF-containing diet reduced the adverse effects of AF and should be helpful in a solution to the aflatoxicosis problem in poultry.

The effects of aflatoxin and glucomannan on coagulation parameters in rabbits

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of aflatoxin and glukomannan on some coagulation parameters. In the study, 40 New Zealand rabbits were used and the rabbits were separated equally into four groups as control (C), glucomannan (G), glucomannan + aflatoksin (AG) and aflatoxin (A). At the end of the (10 week) experiment, APTT and PT values in group A were significantly (P<0.05) shorter than those in the control grroup. Fibrinogen concentrations were higher in groups A and AG than in the control group, but there was no significant difference between the groups. The thrombocyte count was significantly (P<0.05) increased in group A compared with the other groups. In conclusion, in this study this aflatoxin dose did not cause coagulation disorders as seen by shortness in PT and APTT levels. This might be explained by the fact that this dose stimulated the coagulation mechanism due to the slight negatively effect which initiated coagulation response.
