The present study aimed at assessing the impacts of bee venom in drinking water on the growth performance, carcass merits, blood health, and immunity of broilers. Three hundreds and seventy five unsexed one-day old Avian chicks with an initial body weight of (45.2 ± 0.7g), were obtained from a local commercial hatchery. Chicks were kept at a private poultry farm under supervision of Animal Production Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Tanta University. Chicks were divided randomly into five equal experimental groups; each group divided into 3 replicates; each replicate has 25 birds. Control group (C) received drinking water without any supplementation (tap water). Treatment 1, 2, 3 and 4 received drinking water treated with bee venom at the level of (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/Liter), respectively. Results showed that, birds received bee venom at the level of 2.0 mg/L drinking water had significantly (P≤0.05 and 0.01) the highest body weight. Chicks received bee venom at the level of 2.0, 1.5 and 1.0 mg/L. drinking water recorded superior (p≤0.05) weekly body weight gains than those fed 0.5 mg/L and control group. The highest (p≤0.05) amount (3008.9gm) of total feed consumption per bird recorded by the control group compared to (2908.9, 2907.0, 2916.6 or 2916.2) of those received bee venom at the levels of 2.0, 1.5, 1.0 or 0.5 mg/L, respectively. Regarding feed conversion ratio, through the whole experimental period (0 to 5 week), there were no significant differences among treated groups while, it has a significant improvement compared to birds in control group. There were significant (P≤0.05) effects for carcass, dressing, abdominal fat and relative liver, thymus, and spleen weights between broilers received drinking water supplemented with different levels of bee venom and those of the control. No significant differences (P>0.05) were observed for each IgA, IgG, and IgM. It could be concluded that the use of bee venom in drinking water of broilers up to 2mg/L. is able to improve productive performance, carcass traits and some blood biochemical parameters.","PeriodicalId":11538,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Nutrition and Feeds","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80509615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Semen was collected twice a week from five mature buffalo bulls for 12 weeks and ejaculates with 70% progressive motility prior were pooled to have sufficient semen volume for a replicate and to eliminate the bull effect. After evaluation semen quality, the pooled fresh semen was divided into five equal fractions; one fraction was diluted with Tris-egg yolk extender (control) and the other four replects, whole egg yolk was replaced by different concentrations of five; 10; 15 and 20% coconut water extracted. Semen was diluted to eighty million sperm/ml packaged into 0.25ml straws, cooled held at 5ºC for4 h, and then frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at –196ºC until for artificial insemination. The percentages of sperm progressive motility, live sperm, sperm abnormality, intact sperm acrosome and plasma membrane integrity were evaluated post dilution, post–equilibration and post frozen–thawed processes. The results revealed that 20% coconut water extender was more effective on cryopreservation of semen characteristics (progressive motility, live sperm, sperm abnormality, intact sperm acrosome and plasma membrane integrity) of buffalo spermatozoa than whole egg yolk extender and other coconut milk extenders. Also, conception rates were higher in 20% coconut water extender compared with control egg yolk extender (66.7% vs 58.3%, respectively).
