| dc.description.abstract | The study aimed to analyze the use of encapsulated probiotic Lactobacillus salivarius in
complete feed on Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER), meat fat content, meat cholesterol content
and income over feed cost (IOFC) of local Rabbit. Thirty-two local male rabbits aged 8 to 12
weeks were taken as the sample of the study. Distribute into five group with four treatments
consist of two rabbits in each group. Moreover, the randomized block design (RBD) was
geared under the analysis of variance (ANOVA) toward analyzing the experiment. The
treatments were TO = control, T1= administration of 0.3 % encapsulated probiotic, T1=
administration of 0.5 % encapsulated probiotic. T1= administration of 0.7 % encapsulated
probiotic. The result revealed that the administration of probiotic significantly (P<0.05)
increases PER and IOFC but reduce the fat content. In addition, the administration of
probiotic significantly (P<0.01) increases rabbit meat cholesterol. The provision of probiotics
did not considerably affect the cost of feed during the study and the consumption of crude
protein, inexorably, the best level of probiotic Lactobacillus salivarius in additives feed was
0.5%. | en_US |
