Recent advances in role of chromium and its antioxidant
combinations in poultry nutrition: A review, Veterinary World,
9(12): 1392-1399.
Abstract
Poultry is reared
in open side houses in most of the tropical countries, which
results in huge temperature variation in shed causing stress
resulting in increased demand of antioxidant supplementation.
Since cooling of poultry houses or environment control is very
expensive, thus methods focused on nutritional modifications
appears to be the much logical approach. Stress increases mineral
and vitamin mobilization from tissues and their excretion. Effect
of some minerals and vitamin supplements such as chromium (Cr) and
ascorbic acid to elevate the negative effects of environmental
stress is well documented. Cr functions as an antioxidant and its
deficiency are said to disrupt carbohydrate and protein
metabolism. Cr has been utilized for weight gain, to improve feed
conversion ratio, increase relative organ weight, muscle
development, decrease cholesterol, increase high-density
lipoprotein cholesterol, and improve nutrient digestion.
Therefore, the present review discusses the beneficial aspects of
Cr with its effect in different doses and antioxidant combinations
to explore and promote its optimum utilization in poultry
nutrition and production.
Keywords:
antioxidants, chromium, poultry, stress.
