Resumo

Objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos da inclusão de níveis crescentes de gengibre em pó (0; 0,5; 1,0; 1,5 e 2,0 %) na dieta de codornas japonesas em postura sobre o desempenho produtivo, a metabolização dos nutrientes, a qualidade dos ovos, a biometria do trato gastrointestinal e dos ossos (tíbia e fêmur), além do perfil bioquímico sanguíneo e tecidual. Foram utilizadas 150 codornas fêmeas (Coturnix coturnix japonica), com idade entre 40 e 52 semanas, distribuídas em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com cinco tratamentos e seis repetições de cinco aves, durante 84 dias experimentais. A suplementação com gengibre promoveu melhora na conversão alimentar, aumento da metabolização aparente do extrato etéreo, alterações em algumas características da qualidade dos ovos, incluindo peso, coloração da gema e espessura da casca, além de modificar parâmetros bioquímicos relacionados ao metabolismo lipídico e mineral. Também foram observadas alterações na biometria do trato gastrointestinal, sem efeitos consistentes sobre as características ósseas das aves. Conclui-se que o gengibre em pó apresenta potencial como aditivo fitogênico para codornas japonesas em postura, contribuindo para melhorias na eficiência alimentar, em algumas características da qualidade dos ovos e na modulação de parâmetros bioquímicos, sem comprometer a produção de ovos ou a viabilidade das aves.
