JUMLAH LEUKOSIT DAN DIFFERENSIASI LEUKOSIT AYAM BROILER YANG DIBERI MINUM AIR REBUSAN KUNYIT
Abstract: This study aimed to
assess the effect of boiled turmeric water on the number of leukocyte and
differentiation leukocyte of broilers. The study was conducted in Oktober -
November 2016. The material used was 200Day Old Chick (DOC)
of broiler with initial weight 41.48 ± 0.99 g. Feed used was a
commercial feed with code B-11S to phase stater and BR-1AJ for the finisher
phase and turmeric. The design used in this study was completely randomized
design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 5 replicates containing 8 DOC in each. The
treatment consisted of T0 (100% water), T1 (75% water + 25% boiled turmeric
water), T2 (50% water + 50% boiled turmeric water), T3 (25% water + 75% boiled
turmeric water), T4 (100% boiled turmeric water).The results showed that boiled
turmeric water give significantly affect the percentage of lymphocytes and
eosinophils (P<0,05), but did not significantly affect the total number of
leukocytes, percentage of heterophile and monocytes (P>0,05). The conclusion
from this study is that the boiled turmeric water in the drinking water of
broilers was able to improve white blood profile, that indicated by the number
of leukocyte and percentage of lymphocytes and eosinophils.
