Abstract: | Debido al trascendente uso de extractos fitoquímicos como aditivo en alimentos para diferentes animales, facilidad de acceso a ellos, costos módicos y diversos estudios que demuestran su funcionamiento como promotores de crecimiento, este estudio se centra en el uso de microemulsiones como sistema portador y de liberación de principios activos, que impulsará la efectividad del extracto de Zingiber Officinale en pollos broiler. Diferentes métodos de caracterización fueron herramientas clave para el desarrollo y estudio del producto resultante (microemulsión) como de sus componentes. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, de la mano de la marcha fitoquímica, nos brinda una firma espectral respaldada con el estudio organoléptico del extracto. Dynamic Light Scattering junto con un estudio reológico nos proporcionan información del tamaño de partícula, comportamiento moléculas, viscosidad, plasticidad, elasticidad y derrame del producto. Para llegar a la formulación final de 18.16% tensoactivo, 34.91% fase orgánica and 46.93% fase acuosa, se realizaron varias pruebas de graduación de los componentes, así como del uso de varios tensioactivos: hexadecyltrimethylammonium brom, Sodium Lauryl Sulfat, y SPAN 60, Lecitina de yema y soya grado alimenticio. La administración del producto a la muestra de 200 pollos se realizó desde el día 8 al 42, en donde ya mostraron estar listos para el consumo. Se realizó un estudio estadístico para mostrar si la efectividad es significativa, llegando a la conclusión de que la administración adicional de este promotor de crecimiento sí favorece a la ganancia de peso de los pollos broiler. |
Description: | Due to the transcendent use of phytochemical extracts as feed additives for different animals, easy access to them, low costs and several studies that demonstrate their performance as growth promoters, this study focuses on the use of microemulsions as a carrier and release system of active ingredients, which will boost the effectiveness of Zingiber Officinale extract in broiler chickens. Different characterization methods were key tools for the development and study of the resulting product (microemulsion) and its components. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, together with phytochemistry, provides us with a spectral signature supported by the organoleptic study of the extract. Dynamic Light Scattering together with a rheological study provides us with information on particle size, molecular behavior, viscosity, plasticity, elasticity and spillage of the product. To arrive at the final formulation of 18.16% surfactant, 34.91% organic phase and 46.93% aqueous extract phase, several component graduation tests were performed, as well as the use of several surfactants: hexadecyltrimethylammonium brom, Sodium Lauryl Sulfat, and SPAN 60, yolk lecithin and food grade soy lecithin. The product was administered to the sample of 200 chickens from day 8 to 42, when they were ready for consumption. A statistical study was carried out to show if the effectiveness is significant, reaching the conclusion that the additional administration of this growth promoter does favor broiler chick weight gain. |
