ABSTRACT
The objective of the present investigation was to ascertain the impact of in ovo administration of L-carnosine on physiological indicators in neonatal broiler chickens. A total of 280 viable broiler eggs were allocated to 7 distinct groups control, Sham in ovo injection of sterile water on d 7 of incubation. Groups 3 and 4 were subjected to in ovo injections of L-carnosine (25 and 50 µg) on d 7 of incubation. Group 5, functioning as a sham in ovo, received an injection of sterile water on d 18 of incubation. Groups 6 and 7 were in ovo injected with L-carnosine (25 and 50 µg) on d 18 of incubation. All eggs were subjected to incubation, and the hatching rate and body weight were measured post-hatch. Subsequently, blood samples were collected, and the levels of biochemical constituents in the serum were determined. Based on the outcomes, the administration of L-carnosine (50 µg) on d 7 of incubation led to a significant increase in post-hatch body weight compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The in ovo injection of L-carnosine (25 and 50 µg) on d 7 and 18 of incubation resulted in a significant decrease in the levels of serum glucose, triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), phosphorus (P), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine transaminase (ALT) in the newly hatched chickens (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the in-ovo injection of L-carnosine (25 and 50 µg) on d 7 and 18 of incubation led to a significant increase in the levels of serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL), calcium, and total protein (TP) in the newly hatched chickens (P < 0.05). Nonetheless, L-carnosine did not have a significant effect on the levels of serum IgY and IgA in the newly hatched chickens (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that the in ovo administration of L-carnosine yielded favorable outcomes in neonatal broiler chickens.
