Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate an effect of herb additive effects on oxidative stress related blood biochemical responses; Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) enzyme activity in Thai native (CH), Thai synthetic (KM), and crossbred native (TN) chickens. Growth performance data and blood samples were collected at 4, 8, and 12 weeks of age in both two dietary groups (commercial diet and herb additive diet). The enzyme activity in serum was measured via the enzymatic method. The results showed bodyweight between dietary groups were not different throughout this study, whereas the herb additive affected the level of AST enzymes in the KM breed. The trend analysis result was revealed the significantly different (P<0.05) of the responsive pattern of AST between studied breeds. Therefore, these results were concluded the herbal supplemental diet may be applied to relieve the oxidative stress effect in Thai synthetic breed for adjusting a nutritional status to meet genetic potential.
