Abstract:
The study investigates the impact of
incorporating chitosan and whey powder into the diet
of broiler chickens on their growth performance and
overall productivity. Aimed at exploring alternative feed
additives, the research examines parameters such as
weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and health
indicators. Results indicate that the inclusion of these
natural ingredients positively influences broiler growth
rates and efficiency, suggesting their potential as viable
supplements in poultry nutrition. This study contributes
to the ongoing search for sustainable and effective
nutritional strategies in poultry farming.

minerals, then lactose and mineral salts It turns out
that ideal separation is not possible due to the
heterogeneity of the system (the method is widely
used for analytical purposes) [2,4,8,9].
Materials and methods
Chitosan and whey powder feed additive removes
mycotoxins and heavy metals from the div and
reduces the content of mycotoxins and heavy metals in
poultry products, increases feed digestibility. As a
result, poultry productivity increases.
Observation of physiological and biochemical
characteristics of chickens in private poultry farms and
in the care of the population of the Samarkand region
by age, breed and season. The object of the study is
agricultural broiler chickens. The development of
optimal doses and assessment of the effect of the
additive "Chitosan and whey powder (SZK)" on the
safety and quality of broiler chicken products is carried
out in the conditions of the structural unit of the
scientific and production experiment. At the end of
feeding broiler chickens, the digestibility of the main
nutrients and the digestibility of minerals and nitrogen
Two physiological exchange experiments were
conducted to study.
Analysis of feed and separated litter was carried out
according to generally accepted zootechnical analysis
methods [3]. The following indicators were
determined:
-
According to GOST 13979.1-93 initial and
hygroscopic moisture by drying samples in a
thermostat;
-
crude oil - according to GOST 13496.15-97. By
the Rushkovsky method;
-
raw fiber - according to GOST 13496.2-91. By
the Henneberg-Shtoman method;
-
crude protein - according to GOST 13496.4-93.
By Keldal method;
Results and discussions
For the successful growth and development of broiler
crosses, it is necessary to ensure an increase in the
activity of gastrointestinal proteinases, which directly
affect the digestibility of feed protein. This is especially
important when the ecology and environment are
disturbed, since various toxic compounds can negatively
affect the synthesis of enzymes of the digestive system
of poultry. Correctly select the optimal dose of sorbents,
including feed containing chitosan and SZK.
Based on this, the daily nitrogen balance and its
utilization in the div of poultry were studied to assess
protein metabolism in broilers (Table 1).
The highest rate of feed nitrogen conversion during the
experiment was observed in broiler chickens in
experimental group 3, which received chitosan and SZK
as part of the mixed feed at a dose of 0.10% by weight
of feed. Therefore, experimental group 3, compared to
the control, had a significantly higher daily nitrogen
deposition of 0.167 g or 15.65%.

At the same time, we calculated the amount of
nitrogen consumed from the amount taken in and
digested with food in the experiment. It was also found
that the birds of experimental group 3 had a significant
(P<0.05) advantage in these indicators compared to the
control group - 6.63 and 5.75%.
In our opinion, this was the result of optimizing the
absorption of dietary amino acids from the small
intestine into the blood of birds in experimental group
3 under the influence of mixed feed.
CONCLUSION
1.
The experiment, in the presence of the risk of
mycotoxicosis, the best results of digestive metabolism
were observed in broiler chickens from experimental
group 3, whose diet, considering environmental
characteristics, included chitosan and SZK in a dose of
0.10%.
2.
Broiler chicks provides a more efficient use of
nutrients, which is confirmed by the results obtained in
increasing growth intensity and reducing feed costs for
increasing live weight. Consequently, feeding the
studied feed additive at a dose of 0.10% ensured a high
level of assimilation of feed nitrogen into the div of
broiler chicks.
