The present research was conducted to study the effect of organic acids with probiotic supplementation on immunity and blood biochemical status of broiler chicken. A total number of 300 birds were reared for a period of forty two days with dietary treatments; T0 - control diet as per BIS (2007), T1 - control + sodium diformate @ 0.2%, T2 - control + sodium diformate @ 0.2 + probiotic @0.02%, T3 - control + blends of organic acids @0.2%, T4 - control + blends of organic acids @0.2% + probiotic @0.02%. Each treatment consist of sixty birds with four replicates containing fifteen birds per replicate. Two birds from each replicate of average body weight were selected and blood samples at the end of 42 days were collected to determine immune titre and blood biochemical parameters. Immune titre of birds were found to be non-significant with increased antibody titre in all treatment groups than control. Blood biochemical parameters viz., total protein, albumin, globulin and BUN were found to be significant. However there was decreased level of cholesterol in all treatment groups than control.
