Vitamin E Supplementation

The objective was to evaluate the supplementation of organic zinc and vitamin E, isolated or in association, in the diet of broiler chickens from 22 to 42 days of age, under natural conditions of heat stress, on the productive performance, carcass, noble cuts, and abdominal fat yield. A group of 720 birds was housed at 22 days of age, distributed in random blocks with a 2x3 factorial design, with two levels of zinc in the organic form (0.0 mg/kg and 120 mg/kg), associated with three levels of vitamin E in the form of DL-α-tocopherol acetate (0.0 mg/kg; 300 mg/kg, and 600 mg/kg), with six replicates, and 20 birds per box. In natural conditions of heat stress, the association of organic zinc and vitamin E in the diet of broilers from 22 to 42 days of age did not affect the productive performance, carcass, noble cuts, and abdominal fat yield. In an isolated way, the supplementation of vitamin E improved the productive performance in from 22 to 33 days of age. Moreover, in the period of 22 to 42 days of age, the level of 312.5mg/kg of vitamin E provided better creative viability.

Vitamin E Supplementation

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of experimental T-2 toxin load (2.35 mg/kg of feed) and vitamin E supply in the drinking water (10.5 mg/bird/day) on vitamin E levels of the blood plasma and liver in broiler chickens in a 14-day experiment. It was found that T-2 toxin load did not influence vitamin E content of the blood plasma except at day 3 after the toxin load when a moderate increase was detected in plasma vitamin E. No significant changes were found in vitamin E content of the liver. The simultaneous use of high-dose vitamin E supplementation and T-2 toxin load caused a significantly higher plasma vitamin E content but the changes were less expressed in the group subjected to T-2 toxin load. Vitamin E supply also resulted in a marked and significant increase in vitamin E concentrations of the liver on days 3 and 7 even in the T-2 loaded group, but this concentration significantly decreased thereafter. The results show that T-2 contamination of the diet has an adverse effect on the utilisation of vitamin E in broiler chickens.

Vitamin E Supplementation

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of vitamin E supplementation to diet containing herbal mixture on performance, meat quality, hematological status and fat deposition of broiler chickens. Eighty 15-day-old female broilers were distributed into 2 treatment groups with 4 replications (10 female broilers of each replication) as follows. Feed with FSBL plus 1 g of turmeric and 2 g garlic (P1) and Feed of P1 plus vitamin E (P2). Vitamin E supplementation had no effect on performance, carcass weight, meat bone ratio, drip loss and cooking loss, gizzard, spleen, proventriculus, gallbladder, heart, caecum, intestine, fat depot in abdomen, sartorial, neck, heart, proventriculus, and liver as expressed by fatty liver score, blood triglyceride, cholesterol, LDL and HDL concentrations, moisture, and fat and ash contents of meats.  However, it reduced liver weight, toxicity score, gizzard fat depot and meat protein. In conclusion, vitamin E supplementation to  diet containg herbal mixture reduced meat protein, toxicity score, and gizzard fat depot.
