Evaluation of models using corticosterone and adrenocorticotropin to induce conditions mimicking physiological stress in commercial broilers.
Three experiments (Exp) were conducted to delineate a suitable model for inducing conditions mimicking physiological stress with minimal bird handling. For Exp 1, Ross x Ross 308 male chicks were fed a control diet or a diet containing 5 mg of corticosterone (CS)/kg from d 1 to 7. For Exp 2, Ross x Ross 508 broilers received 1 of 4 dietary treatments: control; control + 4 IU/kg of BW of adrenoc...
متن کاملIleal microbiota composition of broilers fed various commercial diet compositions.
Microbiota plays a role in the release and absorption of nutrients from feed components, thereby affecting digesta composition and moisture content of the excreta. The objective of the current study was to determine the effects of 5 different diets varying in ingredients (medium-chain fatty acids, nonstarch polysaccharides, and starch) on the microbiota composition of ileal digesta of broiler c...
متن کاملCarbon and Nitrogen Budget of Commercial Cage-Grown Broilers
Understanding the fate of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) inputs and outputs from commercial broiler operations is important for increasing the flock C and N efficiency and reducing gaseous emissions. This study was conducted to determine the C and N balance for broiler chickens grown in cages from day old to 42-d market age. Concentrations of ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and ...
متن کاملThe effect of corticosterone-induced stress on amino acid digestibility in Ross broilers.
Two experiments (Exp.) were conducted to establish amino acid (AA) digestibility coefficients (DC) for broilers given corticosterone (CS)-induced stress using the apparent ileal digestibility assay. For Exp. 1, 192 Ross x Ross 708 male broilers were placed into 16 floor pens (12 birds/pen). For Exp. 2, 120 Ross x Ross 308 male broilers were placed into 10 floor pens (12 birds/pen). Pens contain...
متن کاملForsythia suspensa extract attenuates corticosterone-induced growth inhibition, oxidative injury, and immune depression in broilers.
Forsythia suspensa extract (FSE) has been demonstrated to attenuate physiological stress induced by high temperature or high stocking density. This experiment was conducted with 144 male Arbor Acre broilers (1-d-old, weighing 42.7 ± 1.7 g) to determine the effects of FSE on performance, nutrient digestibility, antioxidant activities, serum metabolites, and immune parameters for birds treated wi...
