Effect of dietary supplementation of organic acids on performance, intestinal histomorphology, and serum biochemistry of broiler chicken

Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of dietary supplementation of organic acids on the performance, intestinal histomorphology, and blood biochemistry of broiler chicken. The birds in the control (T1) group were fed the basal diet whereas in other treatment groups basal diet was supplemented with 2 butyric acid (T2), 3 butyric acid (T 4), 2 fumaric acid (T4), 3 fumaric acid (T5), 2 lactic acid (T6), and 3 lactic acid (T7). Broiler chicken fed diets supplemented with organic acids had significantly (P
