EVALUATION EFFECT OF SUPPLEMENTATION OF YEASTS ON THE MORPHOMETRY OF INTESTINAL VILLUS AND PRODUCTS OF THE MICROFLORA IN CHICKENS.

One of the strategies developed to improve the functional conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of broilers is the use of alternative nutritional and functional additives. Among these alternatives, it has been recently evaluated the supplementation of yeasts in poultry feeding systems. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the potential functional and nutritional role of 3 different strains of isolated yeasts from native fruits of Colombian ecosystems in males broiler and its effects on the variations of intestinal villus morphometry and products of the cecal microflora. The chicks were distributed at random in 6 treatments: 0,5% of the diet of 3 different native yeasts, two controls with commercial yeasts (Levapan® dry presentation and AB vista®) and a control group without yeast. They were carried out comparisons of the means with a level of significance of P
