Abstract
|
|
|
The effect of administration of red pepper Capsicum annuuml on the growth rate and resting metabolic rate in male chickens was investigated while varying the dose of red pepper.
Growth of the chickens ied the rations containing small amount of red pepper(0.1% or 0.5%) was significantly enhanced. In the chickens given the ration containing 1% of red pepper, which showed the result similar to that of control chickens fed the ration without red pepper, retarded growth was seen as compared with the growth of the chickens fed the rations containing small amount of red pepper. Chickens administered the rations containing large amount of red pepper (5%, 10%, 60%) showed significantly retarded growth as compared with the growth of control chickens.
There was no effect on the resting metabolic rate of chickens when administered varying amount of red pepper. The oxygen of resting chickens was varied 9.0-10.5㎖/㎏^(0.75)/min and rectal temperature was varied within the normal range (41-42℃)
