ABSTRACT
The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula crude extracts as feed additives on the growth performance of broiler chickens. The samples included 240 one-day-old chicks randomly divided into 8 dietary treatments, each treatment consisted of 3 replicates with 10 chicks per replicate. The dietary treatment groups were control group (T0), basal diet + zinc bacitracin (T1), basal diets + 0.4% Agaricus bisporus extract (T2), basal diet + 0.8% Agaricus bisporus extract (T3), basal diet + 1.2% Agaricus bisporus extract (T4), basal diet + 0.4% Auricularia auricula extract (T5), basal diet + 0.8% Auricularia auricula extract (T6), and basal diet + 1.2% Auricularia auricula extract (T7). The measured variables included feed intake, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and production index. In addition, the study aimed to evaluate the reducing sugars level, antioxidant IC50, and antimicrobial efficacy of mushroom extracts prepared using three different solvents (i.e., water, ethanol, and methanol). The findings indicated that methanolic extract contained higher reducing sugars and had better antimicrobial efficacy. The results of experimental research revealed that mushrooms crude extracts had no significant effects on the growth performance of broiler chickens.

INTRODUCTION
Zinc bacitracin is one of the antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) that is usually used in the poultry industry (Sarmah et al., 2006). The AGP residues in animal products, such as meat or eggs, have negative effects on human health and immunity mainly due to the development of bacterial resistance. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to seek alternatives to AGP (Suresh et al., 2017).
Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular are two types of mushroom species cultivated in the subtropical climate, such as Indonesia. They contain different polysaccharide compounds, including p-glucan, which has a significant pharmacological effect on activating innate immunity by macrophage cell activation (Minato and Abe, 2013). Chae et al. (2006) reported that broilers fed with p-glucan at 0.04% level had a significant increase in CD8+ cells at 42 days of age and a relative increase in CD4+ cells.
Lee and Kim (2005) reported that Auricularia auricular contains 8.86% glucan, out of which 0.31% is a-
glucan and 8.55% is p-glucan. On the other hand, Agaricus bisporus is made of 7.19% glucan, including 0.60% a-glucan and 6.59% p-glucan. Zeng et al. (2012) reported that Auricularia auricula extract contains a heteropolysaccharide composed of various monosaccharides, such as galactose, mannose, glucose, arabinose, and rhamnose. Agaricus bisporus extracted and semi-purified using hot water and 65% ethanol showed a higher polysaccharide content of up to 74.4%, encompassing 63.8% glucan content, 5.6% a-glucan and 58.2% in p-glucan (Kozarski et al., 2011).
Sulfated polysaccharides of Auricularia auricula extracted using 95% ethanol could enhance the immunity of white roman chickens (Nguyen et al., 2012). Another study demonstrated that extract from shiitake mushroom increased the total population of Bifidobacteria from 7.47 to 8.67 log10 CFU and reduced Salmonella counts from 5.98 to 5.81 log10 CFU (Willis et al., 2009). Bifidobacteria are known to improve animal production, gut morphology, and health. Another study conducted by Willis et al.

(2013) indicated that 5% oyster mushroom supplementation in broiler diets resulted in higher body weight than other mushroom types. The supplementation of Agaricus bisporus mushroom in turkey diets significantly increased body weight and weight gain. Moreover, it reduced feed conversion ratio (FCR) but had an insignificant effect on feed intake (Giannenas et al., 2011). With this background in mind, the present study aimed to evaluate the effects of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular crude extracts prepared using microwave-assisted extractor (MAE) on broiler performance.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Ethical approval
The in vivo trials were approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of Brawijaya University (certificate number: 065-KEP-UB-2020).
Mushroom preparation and extraction
Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula were purchased from a local mushroom farmer in the Singosari sub-district, Malang District, East Java, Indonesia. The mushrooms were segmented into the fragments of 0.2-0.3 cm in size, then 100 g of each mushroom was added into a 500 mL flask and mixed and soaked with different solvents (200 mL of distilled water, ethanol 96%, and methanol 70%) for 24 h. In the next step, the solvents were evaporated using modified microwave heating as described by Purwanto et al. (2010). The modified MAE was used during the experiment at 50 °C for 15 minutes.
Determination of reducing sugars, antioxidant IC50, and antimicrobial efficacy of mushrooms (Experiment 1)
The disk diffusion method was performed to investigate the antimicrobial activity of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula crude extracts using nutrient agar medium (Merck KGaA, 64271 Darmstadt, Germany). The bacteria (Salmonella Typhimurium, Escherichia coli, and Lactobacillus aureus) were provided and cultured in nutrient agar at 37 °C for 24 hours at the Department of Plant Pest and Diseases, Brawijaya University. Afterward, Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula crude extracts (in 50% concentration) were placed in the cylinders. Finally, the plates were incubated at 37 °C for 24 hours, then the diameter of the inhibition zone was measured using calipers.
Lane-Eynon method was performed to determine the concentration of reducing sugar of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula crude extracts (Afriza and Ismanilda, 2019). Approximately 5 g mushroom crude extract was added to 25 mL of distilled water and 1 mL of HCl 37%. The sample was then heated for 15 min at 80°C. Following that Na2CO3 10% was added until greenish, and total volume was made to 125 ml by adding distilled water, then the final solution was stirred, and filtered. The filtrate was immediately transferred into the burette. Furthermore, 5 mL of Fehling A and Fehling B were mixed at the ratio of 50:50. The mixture of Fehling A and Fehling B was then added to 7.5 mL of the solution and the solution was boiled later. The color indicator was used by adding 75 ^L of methylene blue. Finally, the solution was titrated until the blue color disappeared. The reducing sugars was calculated as follows:
Dilution volume 100 Reducing sugar = —-;—;-x --;-—— x 0.001
Titrated volume Sample weight
The antioxidant activity was performed according to (Osawa and Namiki, 1981). Briefly, 20 mg/mL of mushroom crude extract was dissolved in 4 mL of 95% (w/v) ethanol and mixed with linoleic acid (2.51%, v/v) in 99.5% (w/v) ethanol (4.1 mL), 0.05 M phosphate buffer pH 7.0 (8 mL), and distilled water (3.9 mL) and kept in screwcap containers at 40 °C in the dark. Then, 0.1 mL of this solution was then added to 9.7 mL of 75% (v/v) ethanol and 0.1 mL of 30% (w/v) ammonium thiocyanate. Precisely 3 min after the addition of 0.1 mL of 20 mM ferrous chloride in 3.5% (v/v) hydrochloric acid to the reaction mixture, the absorbance at 500 nm of the resulting red solution was measured, and it was measured again every 24 h until the absorbance of the control reached the maximum value. The percentage inhibition of linoleic acid peroxidation was calculated as follows:
Inhibition (%) = 100 - [(absorbance increases of the sample/absorbance increases of the control) x 100].
Effect of mushroom-supplemented diet on broiler growth performance (Experiment 2)
In this experiment, methanol was used as a solvent to extract the mushroom samples. To conduct the study, 240 one-day-old chicks (unsexed, average body weight of 37.6 ± 2.90 g/chick), strain Lohman Grade Platinum, were purchased from Multibreeder Adirama Company in Indonesia. The samples were randomly divided into eight dietary treatments with three replicates in each treatment and 10 chicks in each pen with the dimensions of 1 x 1.2 x 0.8 m3. All chicks were kept in the floor pens equipped
with hanging feeder, drinker, and rice husk as litter. Feed and water were offered ad libitum. During 10 days, all chicks got into the brooding phase with controlled room temperature of 26-35 °C and humidity of about 65-75%. The mushroom crude extract was diluted with distilled water in a ratio of 1:2, then sprayed on basal diets.
The experiment was performed for 35 days. The basal diet was formulated for the starter (1-21 days) and the finisher phase (22-35 days). Ingredients and chemical composition of starter and finisher diets are presented in Table 1. The treatment groups included basal diet without mushroom extract as the control group (T0), basal diet with 0.2% of zinc bacitracin as AGP-treated group (T1), and basal diet containing 0.4%, 0.8%, and 1.2% of Agaricus bisporus crude extract formed groups T2, T3, and T4, respectively. Furthermore, basal diet with 0.4%, 0.8%, and 1.2% of Auricularia auricular crude extract defined groups T5, T6, and T7, respectively. Feed was prepared every day and given twice a day in the morning and afternoon.

The results of the antimicrobial sensitivity test are shown in Table 3. Agaricus bisporus extract prepared using methanol solvent showed a wider clear zone against Salmonella (0.75 mm), Escherichia coli (0.73 mm), and lactic acid bacteria (0.62 mm) compared to water or ethanol solvent. Auricularia auricular extract using ethanol showed a wider clear zone against Salmonella (0.63 mm) while Auricularia auricular extracts using methanol solvent showed a wider inhibition zone against Escherichia coli (0.82 mm) and lactic acid bacteria (0.71
mm). Therefore, the methanolic extracts of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula were more effective to inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

Growth performance
Based on the analysis of variance, there were no significant differences among treatments in terms of broiler performance (p > 0.05, Table 4). The control group showed a better production index than the AGP-treated group (369.8 versus 358.3). Both mushroom crude extracts could be replaced with zinc bacitracin in broiler diets. Based on the obtained results of contrast orthogonal test (Table 5), the addition of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricula crude extracts in broiler diets showed no significant differences with regard to feed intake, BWG, FCR, and production index of broilers (p >0.05). The comparison of T6 with T7 showed that 0.8% Auricularia auricula crude extract could reduce feed intake (p = 0.086, 3403 versus 3491 g/chick) and FCR (p = 0.018, 1.59 versus 1.66). However, 1.2% Auricularia auricula crude extract showed the side effect of p-glucan contained in both edible mushroom crude extracts on broiler performance by increasing feed intake and FCR as well as reducing BWG and production index of broilers. The comparison of T3 with T4 showed that 0.8% of Agaricus bisporus crude extract addition could significantly reduce FCR with increasing BWG and similar feed intake (p = 0.047).
Meanwhile, 0.8% of Agaricus bisporus crude extract significantly increased the production index while comparing T3 with T4 (p = 0.046). The addition of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular crude extracts up to 1.2% showed the side effects of p-glucan that contained in both edible mushroom species. Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular crude extracts at 0.8% could lead to better broiler performance, compared to those in the control and AGP-treated group.
DISCUSSION
Antioxidant IC50 and antimicrobial activity
Major polysaccharide in Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular is p-glucan, a pathogenic associated molecular pattern (PAMP), which can stimulate and improve activity and maturity of macrophages and dendritic cells (Muta, 2006). In addition, it is reported that p-glucan could inhibit pathogenic bacteria development (Lee et al., 2020). The current study showed that Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular crude extracts could inhibit the growth of pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria. Farzaneh et al (2018) reported hydrolyzed Agaricus bisporus and Terfezia claveryi effectively inhibited pathogenic bacteria development. While non-blanched Agaricus bisporus inhibited Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, and Listeria monocytogenes. Cai et al. (2015) reported that the ethanolic extract of Auricularia auricula had effective antimicrobial activity on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli with no antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis. p-glucan contained in both mushroom crude extracts could improve antimicrobial activity through enhancing bacteriocins secretion by lactic acid bacteria (Perez et al., 2014). Bacteriocins are natural antimicrobial agents against pathogenic bacteria metabolism (Santos et al., 2017).
Wang et al. (2002) reported that microwave heating with high pressure could improve the dispersion of p-glucan in water without polymers degradation. The findings of a study conducted by Zeng et al. (2012) indicated that Auricularia auricular extraction using microwave improved antioxidant activity against 2,2-azinobis-3 -ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonate, 1, 1 -diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radical (DPPH), superoxide, and hydroxyl radical. Ozturk et al. (2011) found that methanolic extract of Agaricus bisporus had lower Fe3+ compounds (59.87 mg/kg) than hexane solvent (206.20 mg/kg). The ferric ion (Fe3+) is used as an indicator of antioxidant activity in the samples, which is characterized by the reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ (Kozarski et al., 2011).
Growth performance
The p-glucan content of both edible mushroom species has differences in terms of p- and a-chain. Auricularia auricula contains a p- chain higher than Agaricus bisporus (Lee and Kim, 2005). Supplementation of purified p-glucan 0.04% could improve the nutrient digestibility of weanling pig and affect the average daily BWG (Hahn et al., 2006). Giannenas et al. (2010) reported that 2% Agaricus bisporus in broiler diets could
significantly improve broiler performance parameters, including BWG and FCR. It was also indicated that the water-soluble polysaccharide of Agaricus bisporus could enhance broiler performance. Another study on ß-glucan supplementation in broiler diets showed no significant differences among treatments with ß-glucan, Bacillus subtilis, or combination of ß-glucan plus Bacillus subtilis on broiler performance (Zhang et al., 2012). Giannenas et al. (2010) found that the addition of Agaricus bisporus to broiler diets at 20 g/kg diet increased the colonization of Lactobacilli spp. in ileum and caecum. Whereas, Agaricus bisporus did not affect small intestine development (Giannenas et al., 2010). In this regard, gut development could affect host performance, health, and nutrient absorption. In the previous study performed by Giannenas et al. (2011), it was reported that the inclusion of Agaricus bisporus on turkey diets significantly improved the villus height of the small intestine, also reduced the FCR. Phenolic compounds contained in Agaricus bisporus was 402 mg GAE/100g of dry weight (Keles et al., 2011) while Auricularia auricula contained phenolic compound in 3.76 mg/100g dry weight (Sikram et al. 2016). The methanolic extract of Agaricus bisporus contained phenolic content at about 85.45 ^g PE/mg extract (Öztürk et al., 2011), and Auricularia auricular water extract contained higher
phenolic compounds (2.90 mg GAE/g dry matter) than ethanol or diethyl ether solvent (Boonsong et al., 2016). Polyphenol dietary treatments could enhance barrier function of small intestine by gut microbiota breakdown complex polyphenols into short-chain fatty acids. However, short-chain fatty acids could improve the recovery rate of epithelial cells leading to tight junction protein assembly in epithelium and increased intestinal permeability (Zhu, 2018). Increased intestinal permeability could affect intestinal morphometric (villus and crypt) and improve nutrient utilization and absorption resulting in the improvement of immunity status and body weight of broiler (Yamauchi, 2002). Broiler mortality correlates with the innate immunity of broiler. Intestinal mucosa not only functions in nutrient absorption but also prevents pathogenic bacteria invasion. On the other hand, goblet cells in intestinal mucosa produce mucus to bind and eliminate pathogenic bacteria and could prevent physical and chemical injuries to the intestinal mucosa. Immunoglobulin A (IgA) secretion in intestinal mucosa was to maintain intestinal mucosa stable and also protect it against pathogenic bacteria. Zhang et al. (2008) reported 50 ppm p-(1,3) (1,6)-glucan from Saccharomyces cerevisiae in broiler diets significantly increased secretory IgA and IgG in broilers blood serum.

CONCLUSION
The methanolic extracts of Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular had higher concentrations of reducing sugar and also showed a higher capacity to inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria and lactic acid bacteria. In addition, 0.8% inclusion level of both mushroom species crude extracts in broiler diets showed the optimum level of broiler performance. Agaricus bisporus and Auricularia auricular crude extracts could replace antibiotic growth promoters on the broiler diet.
