This experiment investigated the influence of different synbiotic processing methods on intestinal bacterial count, morphology and histological status developed male Mandarah chicks. Two hundred ten line chicks aged one day were randomized to receive seven The method dose for one-time synbiotics administration day-old as follows: G1: basal diet received no treatment (control); G2: 0.25 ml sprayed; G3: 0.50 G4: are added drinking water; G5: G6: dripped into mouth; G7: mouth drops. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) significantly increased (P<0.0001) compared control group other treated groups had maximum values after use via water (0.25 or ml). Furthermore, when comparing birds (G4, G5) with birds, Escherichia coli concentration in containing was lower. In addition, chickens at (G7) showed a higher duodenum, ileum villus height (VH), VH. - Ileum crypt depth (CD) ratio groups. (G5) performed better ileum, CD than Meanwhile, tract length visceral pH did not differ between It can be concluded that improve overall health birds.

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Bay laurel leaf extract conjugated with zinc nanoparticles (Zn-Nano-BLLE) as a growth enhancer and antibiotic alternative in broiler diets on performance, carcass characteristics, blood markers. In completely randomized design, 264 one-day-old Ross 308 chicks were divided into four experimental groups assess impact Zn-Nano-BLLE supplementation. Each group consisted six replicates, each containing 11 unsexed chicks. The treatments follows: control (basal diet) without any additives, three receiving at 1, 2, 3 cm³ Zn-Nano-BLLE/kg feed, respectively. Results indicated that supplementation 1 or cm³/kg feed led significant improvements live body weight gain. lowest intake conversion ratio observed broilers supplemented (30.94 1.14, respectively). However, highest dressing, carcass, heart percentages found group. Additionally, fed showed levels total protein, albumin, globulin, while also exhibiting cholesterol low-density lipoprotein (161.52 88.35, immunoglobulin G (IgG) elevated groups, although no noted M (IgM). Birds given 2 demonstrated superoxide dismutase activity (164 U/ml), had levels. conclusion, dietary inclusion Zn-Nano-BLLE, particularly cm³/kg, enhanced immunity, productivity, antioxidant status, indicates its effectiveness natural production.

This experiment examined how adding mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) to the diet affected fertility, hatching rates, egg production, carcass characteristics, cost-effectiveness, and immune function in laying hens. One hundred twenty Mandarah chickens (30 hens 3 roosters per group) were randomly chosen between 34 50 wk old divided into four groups. The first group was control group, which given just basal diet. second, third, fourth experimental groups along with three different levels of MOS (0.1, 0.2, 0.5 g/kg diet, respectively). Results found that fed at various laid eggs a significantly higher rate, enhanced number, mass feed conversion ratio than (

This study explored the ability of formic acid (FA) to replace antibiotics in broiler chicken diets. It examined how FA affected chickens' growth, carcass characteristics, blood chemistry, and gut bacteria. The experiment randomly assigned 300 one-day-old (Ross 308) chicks 5 groups, each divided into six replicates with ten unsexed chicks. following were treatments: 1st group, negative control (NC): only received a basal diet; 2nd positive (PC): diet supplemented 0.5 grams Colistin® antibiotic per kilogram 3rd, 4th 5th groups (FA2, FA4, FA6) these along added at increasing levels: 2, 4, 6 Cm3 diet, respectively. Results found no significant differences live body weight (LBW) or gain (BWG) between treatment except for LBW one week BWG 0-1 4-5 weeks age. No variations feed intake (FI) conversion ratio (FCR) among excluding FI FCR 1-2 treatments significantly impacted traits, dressing percentage, breast meat, thigh spleen, giblets, levels urea, creatinine, total protein, globulin, albumin, as well activity enzymes alanine aminotransferase (ALT) aspartate (AST) fed different diets compared groups. addition antioxidant levels. Also, FA2 group had highest bacterial count (TBC). However, FA6 was opposite; it lowest harmful bacteria, such E. coli Coliform.

Enhancing broiler growth, carcass quality, blood parameters and intestinal microbial load: the role of dietary garlic powder as a natural growth promoter

Annals of Animal Science, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Фев. 26, 2025

Abstract This study evaluated the effects of garlic powder (GP) as a natural growth promoter in broiler diets, replacing traditional antibiotics. Four experimental groups 264-day-old chicks (Ross 308) were established fully randomized design experiment. Each group had six replicates, each with eleven unsexed chicks. The treatments used follows: 1 st was basal diet without any additive (control group). 2 nd , 3 rd and 4 th (1 GP, GP GP) receving + 1, 2, g GP/kg feed, respectively. Results demonstrated that diets significantly improved feed conversion ratio (FCR), while led to greatest gains body weight, weight gain, intake. Blood analysis revealed elevated total protein, albumin, A/G ratios across all groups, alongside reduced creatinine ALT levels. notably increased HDL cholesterol (TC) LDL concentrations. Immunoglobulin Y (IgY) levels highest birds fed GP/kg, IgM peaking group. Additionally, enhanced superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, marker oxidative stress. In contrast, control exhibited MDA lactic acid bacteria (LAB) bacterial count (TBC) are found However, E. coli . conclusion, incorporating into immune response, blood parameters, overall growth, gut counts optimal observed at GP/kg.

Annals of Animal Science, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 8, 2025

Abstract The objectives of this investigation were to evaluate the influence dietary supplementation with different levels Bacillus toyonensis ATCC 55050 (BT), Bifidobacterium bifidum 29521 (BB), and a combination half dose BT BB on productive performance, carcass characteristics, physiological parameters, gut microbiota laying Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica). A total 144 quail chicks (56 days old, quail) assigned four experimental groups in fully randomized design experiment for 12 weeks. Twelve replicates, each consisting two female one male bird, created group. control group birds received corn-soybean basal diet from 56 140 trial. In contrast, receiving probiotics given same supplemented 0.1% or 0.05% plus (BT+BB). There was significant enhancement (P<0.05) performance traits during weeks age as result treatments both (BT+BB), except live body weight. results demonstrated various probiotic fertility (Fer) hatchability (Ha) percentages. BT+BB showed highest (98.57%) embryonic mortality (15.95%) compared other treatments. Also, digestive enzymes activity significantly enhanced by (BT+BB) treatments, besides, treatment higher all antioxidant traits. summary, addition their improved blood traits, decrease bacterial counts, coliform levels, fungi, cecal microflora.
