Hematological Features of Cihateup’s Duck Blood that are Given Natural Isotonic in Dry Systems

The study was to produce natural isotonic made from natural sources for Cihateup’s ducks in a dry maintenance system. Ducklings were divided into five replications and four treatments. The ratios used were 17 % protein and 2 900 kcal kg −1 of metabolic energy. The composition of natural isotonic (treatment) is as follows: T0=Water; T1=Water + 7 % Sugar + 2 % Lime Juice + 25 mg Celery Extract + 0.8 g Salt; T2 =Water + 7 % Sugar + 3 % Lime Juice + 50 mg Celery Extract + 0.9 g Salt; T3=Water + 7 % Sugar + 4 % Lime Juice + 75 mg Celery Extract + 1 g Salt. Experiment design using a completely randomized design with four treatments and five replications. The results showed a significant decrease in leukocyte and platelet levels in T2. It indicated that the use of natural isotonic at these levels had an immune effect on local ducks. Hematocrit, hemoglobin, and erythrocyte levels also showed a decrease in T2 but were not significant. While the lowest number of duck platelets was also shown by T2. These platelets are indicators of inflammation, which means that T2 can keep ducks from disease.
