Comparison of biochemical profile of laying hens housed in furnished cages and aviaries
Original language description
The aim of this study was to compare biochemical profile of laying hens housed in furnished cages and aviaries under commercial conditions. Caged hens had significantly (P < 0.01) higher plasma levels of triglycerides, lactate, albumin, calcium and phosphorus, whereas significantly (P < 0.05) higher plasma levels of aspartate aminotransferase and creatine kinase were found in hens housed in aviaries. The levels of glucose, cholesterol, total protein, uric acid, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase and alanine aminotransferase did not show significant differences between housing systems. The results show that housing system has a significant impact on numerous biochemical indices of blood plasma, potentially affecting health and performance of laying hens.
