Abstract This experiment explores the effect and optimal levels of irradiated Chitosan (IrC) in diet on lipogenesis its blood lipid profile Sentul Chickens starter phase. The IrC was generated from shrimp waste chitin, addition to being a feed supplement, it has potential reduce environmental pollution. Furthermore, chickens were 100 samples, reared 0-8 weeks, observed variables included trigly...

Dietary supplementation of alfalfa hay or calf starter during the preweaning period was beneficial to gastrointestinal development in dairy calves and lambs. In present study, we designed 2 experiments using weaning with investigate diet-ruminal microbiome-host crosstalk yak by analyzing ruminal microbiota rumen epithelial transcriptome. During period, either significantly promoted animal growt...

A 42-d trial was conducted with 252 broiler chickens (d 1 of age, 38.8 +/- 1.3 g of BW) to determine the effects of Forsythia suspensa extract on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and antioxidant activities under high ambient temperature (32 +/- 1 degrees C). The feeding program consisted of a starter diet from d 1 to 21 of age and a finisher diet from d 22 to 42 of age. Dietary treat...

Globin, produced by hydrolysis of porcine haemoglobin into haem and globin, is a water-soluble protein with a strong emulsifying capacity (1g globin can emulsify 1000g soya oil). We tested the effect of the inclusion of 0,05% of globin in broiler diets containing a combination of soya oil (S) and palm fat (P) on average daily growth (ADG) and feed conversion (FC). Three hundred male broiler chi...

We evaluated the effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on growth performance, tissue fatty acid composition and ex vivo lipogenic enzyme activity in piglets (n = 40) reared on sows fed diets supplemented with CLA or linoleic acid (LA). Weaned offspring of both sow groups were offered either a CLA- or LA-enriched starter diet for 35 d. The starter diets were formulated to contain 2 g CLA (co...

BACKGROUND Previous work showed that weaning stress causes gut barrier dysfunction partly by triggering the release of corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and thereby inducing the degranulation of intestinal mast cell (MC). This study investigated the hypothesis that attenuating the weaning-induced activation of the CRF-MC axis via administration of a MC stabilizing agent (cromolyn) may improv...

Background: This study was conducted to determine the effect of particles size starter diet on growth performance broiler chickens. Methods: A total 384 Arbor Acres chicks were usedin a completely randomized design with three treatments and four replicates 32 birds each.Birds fed diets 3 sizes (T1: 1.0 mm; T2: 0.8 T3: 0.7 mm) during first week life. At 7 d, same offered in crumbled form until 1...

Broiler early nutrition has caught the attention of nutritionists due to positive correlation between growth rate and market weight. Early strategies such as low Ca levels or use highly digestible ingredients (e.g., spray-dried porcine plasma [SDPP]) have been reported improve gut muscle development, immunity, overall bird. On other hand, recent works suggested that stocking density represents ...
