Abstract

This experiment was conducted for reducing of glucosinolates in rapeseed meal by solid state fermentation and its effects on performance and gastrointestinal microflora population of broiler chickens. Raw rapeseed meal was fermented with a liquid mixed culture containing Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger in a ratio of 1:1.2. After the 25-day fermentation, glucosinolates were reduced from 12.21 to 3.93 mmol/g. A total of 300 Cobb 500 broilers in a completely randomized design were allocated to 5 treatments with 4 replicates of 15 chickens each. Experimental treatments was containing 0, 50 and 100% raw or/and fermented rapeseed meal replaced by soybean meal in diets. The results showed that fermented rapeseed meal compared with raw rapeseed meal improved broiler’s performance (P<0.05) and even the performance of broilers fed diet containing 50% fermented rapeseed meal was similar to those broilers fed control diet. Abdominal fat was significantly lower in broilers fed fermented rapeseed meal than other treatments (P<0.05). Lactic acid bacteria population in crop and coliforms in ileum of broilers fed diets containing fermented rapeseed meal were significantly higher and lower than other groups, respectively (P<0.05). The results showed that fermented rapeseed meal compared with raw rapeseed meal improve performance and balance of microbial flora in gastrointestinal tract of broilers and therefore, use of fermented rapeseed meal as a protein source replacement for soybean meal in diets of broilers.
