Published: August 2023

This study was conducted to determine the effect of cinnamon powder on live weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio, and some blood constituents. Three hundred one day-old broiler chickens (Ross308) were distributed into 15 pens with 20 chickens each, into five equal groups, comprising 3 replicates per treatment. The experimental treatments were fed as follows : a negative control diet without cinnamon T1 , 250 ppm of cinnamon T2 , 500 ppm of cinnamon T3 , 750 ppm of cinnamon T4 , and 1000 ppm of cinnamon T5 , and the feeding were carried out for 49 days.The results showed that chickens fed with cinnamon powder (T2,T3,T4,T5) had significantly higher (p≤0.05) , live body weight gain , feed intake compared with control group (T1), but there were no significant between T1 and all treatments except T5 on feed conversion ratio. Moreover the chickens fed with cinnamon powder had significant (p≤0.05) reducing serum glucose, cholesterol and triglyceride. In conclusion, cinnamon powder could be considered as a potential natural growth promoter for poultry due to the effect on some blood metabolites and broiler performance.

Present study was aimed to investigate the protective role of flavonoid of black grape (Vitis vinifera L.) to contrast the damaging of 100ppm sodium fluoride(NaF) on some biochemical parameters (glucose, insulin, α-amylase and peroxy nitrate) in females rats .Twenty females rats were divided randomly into four groups and treated for (30)days as follows: control group(C) which were given tap water. First treated group (T1) was given 100ppm in drinking water,the second treated group (T2) was given flavonoids extract from black grape (300mg/kg) by oral intubation ,third group(T3) was given 100 ppm of sodium fluoride plus 300mg/kg of flavonoids of black grape .Blood samples were collected after 30 days for measuring the following parameters : glucose , insulin , α-amylase and peroxy nitrate. The results illustrated a significant increase (P˂0.05) in, blood glucose concentration of sodium fluoride treated group (T1) and sodium fluoride plus flavonoids(T3), concentration of insulin in sodium fluoride treated group ,and concentration of peroxy nitrate radical in sodium fluoride treated group (T1) and sodium fluoride plus flavonoids(T3) groups as compared with control group . Significant depression (P˂0.05) in α-amylase activity in sodium fluoride treated group (T1) and sodium fluoride plus flavonoids(T3) as compared with other treated groups was also recorded . From the autcomes of this study documented seems that treatment with flavonoids of black grape(Vitis vinifera ) at concentration of 300mg/kg B.W has the ability to correct the adverse effect of sodium fluoride in females rats.However,there is no significant differences in group treated with flavonoids as compared with control. Histological sections of liver illustrated clear impact of group treated with NaF, manifested by necrosis of hepatic cells with infiltration of inflammatory cells while animals treated with flavonoids of black grape plus NaF revealed slight necrosis area and inflammatory cells in liver. However, there are no abnormal changes in animal treated with flavonoids of black grape. In inference, the autcomes of this study documented the ameliorative effect of flavonoids of black grape apposite the noxious effect of NaF on some biochemical parameters that effect on liver function.
