Inclusion of sorghum distillers dried grains with solubles and multi-enzyme supplementation on immune response and nutrient utilization in broilers

KK Khose, SJ Manwar, RN Dhore, MV Joshi and MA Gole

The experiment was conducted on 420 straight run commercial day old broiler chicks from 0-42 days. The chicks were randomly distributed into seven dietary treatments groups with three replicates of 20 birds each. The birds in control group A were offered basal diet adequate in all nutrients as per BIS, 2007. The birds in dietary treatment groups B, C and D were offered diet containing sorghum distillers dried grains with solubles (sDDGS) at 5, 10 and 15% levels and birds in groups E, F and G were offered diet having sDDGS at 5, 10, and 15% levels with multi-enzyme Ronozyme Max Act (GT) @ 400g/ton of feed, respectively. The antibody titers against ND (log2 values) and ELISA antibody titers against IBD revealed non-significant differences in all treatment groups at 3rd and 6th weeks. There was a non-significant difference for dry matter intake, dry matter excreted, nitrogen intake, nitrogen excreted and DMM in all treatment groups. The nitrogen retention was significantly (P<0.05) reduced in treatment groups D (15% sDDGS) as compared to control group. However, the inclusion of sDDGS at 15% level with enzyme supplementation improved nitrogen retention in broilers and statistically non-significant as compared to control group. Thus, it is concluded that the inclusion of sorghum distiller’s dried grains with soluble up to 10% without multi-enzyme and 15% level with supplementation of multi-enzyme in broiler diets was found to be beneficial in terms of immune response and nutrient utilization in broiler chicken.
