Haematological Studies during the Use of Herbal Polysaccharides in Commercial Poultry

Haematological studies help the poultry consultants to understand the pathological conditions associated with different infections in different age groups. In the current study Comparison of different haematological values i.e.; Hemoglobin Concentration (Hb), Packed Cell Volume (PCV), Total Leukocyte Count (TLC), Differential Leukocytes Counts (DLC) was made between the birds treated with Livol (a Herbal Polysaccarides) and untreated birds. Treatment related changes in feed intake, general body condition and anaemia were also observed amongst the various groups. The addition of Livol (Herbal Polysaccarides) to feed diminished the adverse effects of different vaccines and antibody titres against Newcastle disease. There was comparatively higher weight gain in Livol treated birds. These findings suggested that Livol can effectively correct the circulatory and immune system in broiler chicks.
