Penambahan Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) Berbagai Viskositas sebagai Binder Pelet terhadap Performa Ayam IPB D1.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan mengukur pengaruh penambahan Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) berbagai viskositas sebagai binder pelet terhadap performa ayam IPB-D1. Percobaan ini menggunakan 200 ekor ayam dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) terdiri atas 4 perlakuan dan 5 ulangan. Perlakuan terdiri dari P0: Pakan + 0% CMC; P1: Pakan + 0,5% CMC F 401P (viskositas 250-600 cps); P2: Pakan + 0,5% CMC F 1501P (viskositas 1000-2500 cps); P3: Pakan + 0,5% CMC F 3000P (viskositas 2500-4000 cps). Peubah yang diamati yaitu konsumsi pakan, bobot badan, pertambahan bobot badan, konversi pakan, mortalitas, dan IOFCC. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) 0,5% dalam ransum pelet sebagai binder dengan viskositas berbeda tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap konsumsi pakan, bobot badan, pertambahan bobot badan, konversi pakan, dan mortalitas ayam IPB-D1, serta perlakuan P1 memiliki nilai IOFCC tertinggi. Penggunaan CMC 0,5% dalam ransum aman digunakan dan tidak memberikan efek negatif pada ayam IPB-D1.

This study aimed to measure the effect of adding Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) with varying viscosities as a pellet binder on the performance of IPB-D1 chickens. The experiment involved 200 chickens using a Complete Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of 4 treatments and 5 replications. The treatments were as follows: P0: Feed + 0% CMC; P1: Feed + 0.5% CMC F 401P (viscosity 250-600 cps); P2: Feed + 0.5% CMC F 1501P (viscosity 1000-2500 cps); P3: Feed + 0.5% CMC F 3000P (viscosity 2500-4000 cps). Observed variables included feed intake, body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio, mortality, and IOFCC. The results showed that the addition of 0.5% Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) to the pellet feed as a binder with different viscosities had no significant effect on feed intake, body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and mortality of IPB-D1 chickens. Moreover, the P1 treatment yirdded the highest IOFCC value. The use of 0.5% CMC in the feed is considered safe and does not have any negative effects on IPBD1 chickens.
