Kajian Penambahan Ekstrak Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb) Terhadap Organ Dalam dan Saluran Pencernaan Ayam Broiler

Abstract

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengkaji pengaruh pemberian ekstrak temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb) terhadap organ dalam dan saluran pencernaan broiler. Rancangan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan 420 ekor DOC strain Ross dibagi ke dalam 6 perlakuan dan 7 ulangan, masing-masing ulangan berisi 10 ekor broiler. Perlakuan Penelitian terdiri dari P0= Ransum kontrol, P1= P0 + virginiamycin 20 mg kg-1 pakan, P2= P0 + ET 20 mg kg-1 pakan, P3= P0 + ET 40 mg kg-1 pakan, P4= P0 + ET 80 mg kg-1 pakan, P5= P0 + ET 160 mg kg-1 pakan, P6= P0 + ET 320 mg kg-1 pakan. Peubah yang diamati adalah persentase organ dalam, persentase organ imunitas, persentase saluran pencernaan, dan panjang relatif saluran pencernaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian P2 signifikan (P<0,05) menurunkan persentase bobot hati dan jantung serta meningkatkan (P<0,05) persentase bobot ileum. Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah perlakuan P2 efektif dalam meningkatkan kesehatan hati dan jantung broiler strain Ross

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of temulawak extract (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb) on the internal organs and digestive tract of broiler chickens. The experimental design used in this research was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 420 Ross strain day-old chicks divided into 6 treatments and 7 replications, each replication containing 10 broilers. The research treatments consisted of P0 = control diet, P1 = P0 + virginiamycin 20 mg kg-1 feed, P2 = P0 + TE 20 mg kg-1 feed, P3 = P0 + TE 40 mg kg-1 feed, P4 = P0 + TE 80 mg kg-1 feed, P5 = P0 + TE 160 mg kg-1 feed, and P6 = P0 + TE 320 mg kg-1 feed. The observed variables included the percentage of internal organs, immune organ percentage, digestive tract percentage, and relative length of the digestive tract. The results of the study showed that P2 administration significantly (P<0.05) reduced the liver and heart weight percentages and increased (P<0.05) the ileum weight percentage. The conclusion of this study is the treatment P2 is effective in improving the liver and heart health of Ross broiler chickens.
