ABSTRACT

This experiment was conducted at the Babel Government from February 5, 2020, to February 25, 2020. Three hundred eggs were split into four experimental treatments, 75 eggs each. Four treatments were used for the hatching egg treatments. They were as follows: T1: a 0.3 ml injection of NaCl, the T2, T3, and T4 treatments egg was treated with a 60, 80, and 100 ppm zinc-methionine solution, respectively. After that, 15 chicks from each treatment were selected and given a 48-hour fast. The results were: At six hours, the cholesterol levels dropped dramatically (P≤0.05) in T3 and T4 compared to T1 and T2. Triglyceride concentrations for T3 were significantly lower at 6 hours than for T1 across all exposure durations. When comparing the injectable treatments to T1, the same phenomenon occurred at 12 and 48 hours. At 6 hours, the glucose concentration at T3 and T4 was considerably (P<0.05) lower than at T1, and at 12 hours, all injection parameters were lower than at T1. At 24 o’clock, the glutathione concentration in T3 increased significantly (P≤0.05) compared to the other treatments, while at 48 o’clock, the glutathione concentration in T4 increased compared to the other treatments. After 48 hours of exposure, the AST enzyme in all injectable treatments was significantly (P≤0.05) lower than that of T1. The liver glycogen in treatment T4 was substantially more significant at 6 and 12 o’clock than in treatment T1 and the other treatments. Treatment T1 had a considerably lower concentration of liver glycogen at 24 o’clock than the other treatments, while treatments T3 and T4 had significantly lower concentrations of the same substance at 48 o’clock. Heart glycogen levels in T3 and T4 were considerably more significant in T1 and T2 at 6 and 12 hours compared to T1 and the other treatments. T4 had a more significant amount of cardiac glycogen after 24 hours, and in terms of this feature, T3 had the most outstanding value after 48 hours. The value of muscle glycogen increased significantly (P≤0.05) in T3 and T4 when compared to T1 and T2.
