The application of saponins in poultry nutrition by P.R.Cheeke is an informative article and now a days when the world is shifting to alternatives to antibiotic in animal use,this is much more helpful and some products saponin are in the market but the situation is who will ring the bell .Besides being a detergent and surfactant property of saponin for growth promotion it may be used in comparison with ionophores due to its property of making foam in absorption of calcium and other nutrient for proper digestion.Overall the importance of saponins in poultry nutrition should not be ignored
