Özet

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of inulin and grape pomace addition to broiler diets on broiler chicken performance, carcass yield, intestinal viscosity, immunity, and antioxidant status. In the study, a total of 160 unsexed 0-day-old Ross 308 broiler chicks were divided into 4 groups:(1) control (CON) group, (2) 10 g/kg inu-lin (IN), (3) 50 g/kg grape pomace (GP),and(4) 10 g/ kginulin + 50 g/kg grape pomace (INGP). At the end of the 42-day experiment, 48 animals were exsanguinated to obtain blood for the analysis of immunity and antioxidant parameters. At the end of the study period, while body weight gain, carcass yield and intestinal viscosity values between the groups was not significant (P>0,05), in grape pomace-containing groups, negative effects on feed consumption and feed con-version ratios were found (P<0.05). Immunoglobuline (Ig)G levels of the animals in the INGP group were significantly lower than thosein the other groups (P<0.05). Catalase (CAT) activity increased in groups consuming diets containing grape pomace (P<0.05). While inulin administration produced an increase in beta carotene level,vitamin C and E levels were significantly increased consumption of inulin and grape pomace (P<0.05). As a result, grape pomace up to 5% and inulin up to 1% in broiler diets can be used separately as antioxidants. However, grape pomace may adversely affect FCR depending on the polyphenol level. In addition, it should be consider that they may have a negative effect on immunity when used in combination.
