Broilers
This study was designed to evaluate two feeding strategies that can replace the inclusion of in-feed antibiotics by medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) from vegetal origin. A total of 400 male…
With the current bans and limitations on AGP all around the world, feed additives are widely used to inhibit the effects of pathogenic microorganisms on poultry health. Medium-chain fatty acids…
Enspira (ESP) and Enspira+ (ESP+) are precision engineered blends of exogenous enzymes designed to degrade non-starch polysaccharides in common diet formulations. An experiment was conducted to determine the response of…
Black soldier fly larvae meal (BSFLM) is a relatively new ingredient that has attracted attention for application in farm and companion animal nutrition. However, the biological value of BSFLM protein…
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of dietary prebiotic and high-fiber ingredients on growth performance, nutrient utilization, volatile fatty acid production, and gut microbiome of broiler…
The objective was to investigate the effects of increasing levels of the soy galactooligosaccharides (GOS) raffinose and stachyose in feed on performance and gastrointestinal health including AMEn, nitrogen retention and…
Uric acid is the primary source of N in the poultry litter, which is converted to urea and hydrolyzed into NH3 in the litter environment. Ammonia is partitioned into solid,…
Avian coccidiosis is an infectious parasitic disease that triggers severe intestinal inflammation, leading to nutrient malabsorption, bleeding, and even death. Here we evaluated the response of coccidia-challenged birds to dietary…
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of oil type and oil quality on the fatty acid (FA) profile of the liver and adipose tissues (abdominal and…
Grinding is one of the highest cost centers during feed manufacturing and it is typically accomplished using hammermills or roller mills. In pelleted diets, the pelleting process leads to additional…
