Resumo
The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of oil-resin from the plant
Copaifera sp. as phytogenic additive on broiler performance and as
immunomodulatory agent. Five hundred broiler chicks were used (Cobb500
males), distributed in a randomized design experiment in factorial 5 x 2, composed
of 10 treatments and five replications with 10 birds per pen. The treatments were
divided in animals challenged and not challenged for all treatments: control group
with and without challenge, oil-resin from copaiba 0.2%, group oilresin from
copaiba 0.4%, group of oil-resin from copaiba 0.6 and group with growth promoter
colistin. The challenge with pathogenic E. coli (4.5 x 109 UFCmL ) was realized at
the age of four and 22 days old. The final weight, weight gain, feed intake and feed
conversion were measured at weekly intervals until the age of 28 days. A in house
indirect ELISA was standardized and immunoglobulin class IgA was evaluated.
The cellular immunity was measured through skyn reaction test to
phytohemagglutinin and analyzing the relative weight of the lymphoid organs.
Performance data were analyzed through ANOVA and Turkey test with 5% of
probability. For statistical evaluation of immunological data it was used multiple
test non-parametric test, Kruskall-Wallis followed by T teste. The results showed
that the inclusion of different levels of oil-resin from copaiba in broiler diet had
similar performance when compared to the inclusion of antibiotic growth promoter.
However it was observed an additive effect on antibody levels at the end of the
trial period when oil-resin 0.2% was used.
