Oxidation in Poultry Feed: Impact on the Bird and the Efficacy of Dietary Antioxidant Mitigation Strategies

Oxidative reactions in premixes or final-compound feed pose considerable challenges to the poultry industry, both terms of rancidity reducing palatability and shelf life vivo oxidative stress negatively impacting animal performance. Whilst there has been broad awareness oxidation for many years, recognition impact on industry grown past twenty years. The appearance woody breast associated muscle meat myopathies led a rapid increase research output reactions. widely demonstrated damage tissue, lipids, DNA, is thought be linked conditions such as leaky gut, coccidiosis, ascites, amongst others. use dietary antioxidants found protect from ameliorate some detrimental effects with stress, including improving performance, increasing antioxidant capacity, mitigating heat transport stress. Therefore, aim this review provide insight into process in-feed summary benefits different kinds well their potential added value, based findings reported within all scientific literature.
