Abstract
50 broiler chickens were used in 4 feed treatments. The control group (P0) without SSF, treatment group with 30% SSF (P1), 35% (P2), 40% (P3), 45% (P4). The villi height of jejunum on day 3 showed a signicant difference (p> 0.05) between the control and P2 with P3 and P4, while P1 was signicantly different from other treatments. On the 6th day, the villus, height measurements showed a signicant difference between the control with P1, P2 and P3 but both of these treatments were not signicantly different from P4. On the 9th day of measurement, the villi showed a signicant difference between controls with P1, P2, P3, and P4, whereas in P1 it was signicantly different from P4 but not signicantly different from P2 and P3. In total, growth of villi height showed a signicant difference between control and P1 with P2, P3, and P4. Amylase enzyme activity showed signicant differences between treatment 4, 2 and 3. While the examination of lipase and protease enzyme activity in broiler chickens showed no signicant difference in all treatments.
