Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of the applied additives: aloe preparation (Aloes plus) and a 5-oxo-1,2,4-triazine derivative on chosen biochemical indices of turkey hens blood under conditions of stress. The experiment was carried out on 360 turkey hens allocated at random to 6 groups, 60 birds each. Groups C and C + stress were the control group that did not receive any additive. Birds from groups A and A + stress were administered the Aloes plus preparation in a dose of 0.70 ml/kg body weight (BW)/day. In turn, turkey hens from groups T and T + stress were receiving a derivative of 5-oxo-1,2,4-triazine in a dose of 30 µg/kg BW/day which that was dissolved in a small volume of ethanol (ca. 2 ml). The stress factor in the form of simultaneous crowding and changes in the temperature and lighting conditions did not significantly affect the changes in the level or activity of most analyzed biochemical indices of turkey hens blood (GLU, TP, UA, CHOL, AST, ALT and ALP). Both additives decreased the activity of ALT and ALP in turkey hens blood, independently of the presence or absence of stressors. Also, administration of aloe preparation and a derivative of 5-oxo-1,2,4-triazine under induced stress in turkey hens resulted in reduction of blood lipid indicators both in the birds subjected to stress as well as not subjected to stress.
