Abstract

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of clove, peppermint, cinnamon oils and their blends on growth performance, some blood biochemical constituents, antioxidants activities and economic efficiency.  A total of 300unsexed (Ross – 308) broiler chicks, one- day old were fed from 1-35days on this specific dietary supplementation. Birds were divided randomly into five dietary treatment groups composed of 60 chicks per group, each in 3 replicates. The 1st group (control) received basal diet without additions, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th groups received basal diet supplemented with clove, peppermint and cinnamon oils at0.3 g/kg diet of each, respectively and, the 5thgroup received basal diet supplemented with blend of clove, peppermint and cinnamon oils at 0.1 g/kg diet of each. The results indicated that essential oils blend dietary supplementation significantly improved body weight, gain, feed conversion ratio, performance index in different periods of the experiment. Dressing, giblets and some immune organ percentages had higher values in the essential oil supplemented chicks than the control, while abdominal fat percentage had lower values in the essential oil supplemented chicks than the control .Broiler chicks fed the essential oil diet had greater serum total protein, glutathione (GPx) activities and high density lipoprotein (HDL)than those fed the control, however, significantly decreased serum cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and lipid peroxidation (MDA) concentrations. In conclusion, beneficial effects of using blends of clove, peppermint and cinnamon oils at 0.1 g/ kg diet had been obtained on performance, blood biochemical and economical efficiency with no harm effect on health under experimental conditions.
