 ABSTRACT

A feeding trial of 90 days duration was conducted to study the effect of dietary incorporation of ayurvedic pharmaceutical Tiktaka gritham residue based diet on various haemato-biochemical parameters of Malabari kids. Fifteen healthy three months old Malabari kids were selected and divided into three groups of five each, as uniformly as possible regarding body weight, sex and age. The dietary treatments were T1 (control diet), T2 and T3 kid starter incorporated with 10 and 20 per cent of ayurvedic pharmaceutical Tiktaka gritham residue, respectively. Haematobiochemical parameters of the experimental kids were analyzed at the start and end of the feeding trial. On 1st day all the blood parameters were similar among treatment groups. On 90th day tiktaka gritham residue had a significant effect on the concentration of cholesterol, which was significantly higher (P<0.05) in T3 than T1 and T2, with T1 and T2 being similar (P>0.05). All the remaining blood parameters, viz., RBC, WBC, Hb, MCH, MCV and biochemical parameters, viz., total Protein, AST, ALT and total triglycerides were similar between the treatments.

Keywords: Ayurvedic pharmaceutical Tiktaka gritham residue, Malabari kids, Haematobiochemical parameters.
