This study compared the nutritional value of canola (B. napa) and mustard (B. hirta) press cakes obtained from the biodiesel industry as ingredients for use in diets fed to broiler chickens. A total of 210, one-day old, male broiler chicks were randomly assigned to one of seven dietary treatments. The control diet was based on wheat and soybean meal and contained 15% canola meal. For the experi...

A study was conducted to evaluate the response of broilers to diets containing a mannan oligosaccharide, antibiotics, or a combination of antibiotics and mannan oligosaccharide. All diets were supplemented with copper sulfate to provide 250 mg/kg Cu in diets fed to 42 d and 62.5 mg/kg Cu in diets from 42 to 56 d, in addition to the 10 mg/kg provided in the trace mineral mix. Bio-Mos®, a mannan ...

The physical and biochemical changes resulting from moderately low magnesium (Mg) intake are not fully understood. Obesity and associated co-morbidities affect Mg metabolism and may exacerbate Mg deficiency and physiological effects. Male rats selectively bred for diet-induced obesity (OP, obese-prone) or resistance (OR, obese-resistant) were fed a high-fat, high-energy diet containing moderate...

This study was conducted to determine the effects of four different dietary fat sources on performance, fatty acids composition of abdominal fat, thigh skin, breast and thigh muscle of broiler chickens. Soybean oil (SO), poultry grease (PG), beef tallow (BT) and a mixture of soybean oil with poultry grease (SPG 1 : 1) were used as fat source. A total 395, 4-day-old broilers were randomly assign...

Major objectives of this study were to assess antioxidant protection and fatty acid profile in lung mitochondria and whole liver in broilers with pulmonary hypertension syndrome [(PHS; with and without high dietary vitamin E (VE)] (Experiment 1) and in broilers that did not develop PHS but were genetically selected (S) or not selected (NS) for resistance to PHS (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1, ...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary nettle (Urtica dioica) medicinal plant supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, and blood biochemical and immunity parameters in female broiler chicks. A total of 300 (Ross-308) broilers were randomly allocated into one of the following dietary treatments: 1) control, " # " $ % # " $ % # " $ % # " $ % $ & ' $ chicks per p...

Two experiments were carried out to evaluate the effects of digestible valine supplementation in pre-starter and starter diets on productivity, nutrient metabolizability coefficient (NMC), immune response broilers from breeders different ages. Experiments I II conducted with (1 7 days age) (8 21 phases, respectively. Broilers fed that differed their content. In each trial, 400 male Cobb [...]

The use of 2.5 kg/mt of a commercial HSCAS (Myco-Ad) have been previously demonstrated to effectively prevent the toxic effect of 1.25 ppm T-2 toxin (T-2) in broilers. An experiment was conducted to study the efficacy of a very low inclusion commercial purified phylosilicate (Myco-Ad A-Z) in preventing the deleterious effects of T-2 in broiler chicks. Thirty two 5-day-old Ross male broiler chic...
