Abstract:

This study was aimed at determining the protective effects of the use of esterified glucomannan (GM) in different doses (1 g/kg and 2 g/kg GM) against experimental chronic aflatoxycosis (1 mg/kg food AF) in Japanese bulbs (Coturnix coturnix japonica) in terms of certain biochemical parameters. In the study, 10 days of healthy, 240 male Japanese beans were used. Animals were equally divided into 6 groups of control (K) normal flush food, aflatoxin (AF) group 2 mg/kg aflatoxin, 1 glukomannan (GM1) group 1 g/kg GM, 2 glukomannan (GM2) group 2 g/kg GM, 1 glukomannan+aflatoxin (AF+GM1) group 2 mg/kg aflatoxin + 1 g/kg GM and 2 glukomannan+aflatoxin (AF+GM2) group 2 mg/kg aflatoxin + 2 g/kg GM included the same food for 42 days. It is 21 and 42. When the blood samples taken in the days were studied, the total protein (TP), a'lbumin, triglyceride, cholesterol, glucose, calcium (Ca), inorganic phosphorus (IP) and blood urine nitrogen (BUN) levels in the AF and AF+GM1 groups were found to decline, and the activity of the alaninaminotransferase (ALT) and aspartataminotransferase (AST) enzymes increased (P<0.05). With the application of 2 g/kg dosage GM as adsorban, TP, albumin, triglyceride, cholesterol, glucose and BUN levels and ALT and AST activities were observed significantly different from the AF and low dosage GM groups (P<0.05) and similar to the control group values. The study found that the GM used in the 1 g/kg feed dosage as a protective against aflatoxycosis has no positive effect, but the application of GM at the 2 g/kg level has a positive effect on many parameters.
