The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effect of treated water with polymeric biguanide (Vantocil IB), with different dilutions, upon the erithrocyte parameters and total plasma proteins of broilers. Five treatments and four repetitions were carried out, with a total of 200 broilers. Group 1: not treated water - negative witness; Group 2: sodium hypoclorite with treated water (0.4 - 0.6 ppm) - positive witness; Group 3: polymeric biguanide treated water (Vantocil IB - 1:2000); Group 4: polymeric biguanide treated water (Vantocil IB - 1:4000); Group 5: polymeric biguanide treated water (Vantocil IB - 1:6000). The experimental unit was represented by ten broilers, and the experiment was conducted from July to August, 1995, during 42 days. At the end blood was spooned by puncture cardiac of one broiler of each group. The total plasma proteins was quantified for refratometric method, the average of the treatments did not differ statistically (p < 0.05) for the Tukey Test.
KEY-WORDS: Blood; erithrocyte parameters; total plasma proteins.
