MEAT QUALITY OF BROILER CHICKEN AFFECTED BY SUPPLEMENTATION OF COMBINATION GEMBILI TUBER FLOUR AND LACTOBACILLUS PLANTARUM

The objective of this research was to determine the meat quality of broiler chicken affected by supplementation of combination of gembili tuber flour and Lactobacillus plantarum. A total of 144 of day-old-chick of broiler chicken was used in this research. The experimental design was used in this research was completely randomized design consist of 6 treatments and 4 replicates. The treatment supplementation of synbiotic were T0: control (synbiotic 0%), T1: 1.0% of synbiotic, T2: 1.5% of synbiotic, T3: 2.0% of synbiotic, T4:2.5% of synbiotic and P5: 3.0% of synbiotic. Parameter observed were pH, drip loss and cooking loss. The research showed that supplementation of synbiotic significantly (p<0.05) on pH of meat broiler chicken but not different effect on drip loss and cooking loss of meat broiler chicken.
