Materials and Methods Coccidiosis is a universally important disease of poultry production. Chicken flocks free from coccidia are extremely rare and at least three species of ( and ) are commonly found in all commercial chickens [1]. The protozoan parasites of the genus multiply in the intestinal tract and cause tissue damage, resulting in interruption of feeding and digestive processes or nutr...

This study investigated the effects of various coccidiosis control programs in combination with antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) on growth performance and host immune responses in broiler chickens. The coccidiosis programs that were investigated included in ovo coccidiosis vaccination (CVAC) with Inovocox or in-feed medication with diclazuril as Clinacox (CLIN) or salinomycin (SAL). The AGPs ...

abstract: in order to study the effect of concomitant use of a probiotic with lactobacillus origin (primalac) and a coccidiosis vaccine (paracox-5) in experimental coccidial infection of broilers, 600 day old male broiler chickens were randomly divided into five groups of 120 with four replicates. groups three, four and five received probiotic , coccidiosis vaccine and probiotic + coccidiosis v...

The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of a mixture of functional oils (Essential, Oligo Basics Agroind. Ltda) on performance response of chickens challenged with coccidiosis and the determination of apparent metabolizable energy (AME), nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy (AMEn), the coefficients of protein and ether extract digestibility and intestinal m...

Three experiments (Exp.) were conducted to determine the interactive effects of sodium bentonite (NaB) with the efficacy of monensin (MON) or salinomycin (SAL) in coccidiosis-infected chicks. Male broiler chicks 5 to 14 d of age were used, and each treatment was replicated with eight (Exp. 1) or four (Exp. 2 and 3) pens of five chicks each. In Exp. 1, MON (80 ppm), NaB (0.50%), or MON+NaB were ...

background: despite the use of prophylactic chemotherapy and vaccination, coccidiosis is still one of the most devastating diseases in poultry industry. understanding the immune mechanism helps researchers to prevent this parasitic infection more effectively. objectives: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the antibody response in chickens, induced by a live attenuated vaccine (livacox q)...

An outbreak of coccidiosis in a stallfed sheep farm in Shimoga was tested in for coccidiosis. Out of 47 samples, 29 (61.7%) samples were heavily infected (27.6%) had a moderate infection of Eimeria spp. and 5 (10.63%) samples were found negative. The affected animals were treated with Amprolium along with supportive therapy for  ve days. After treatment, the animals recovered and their faecal ...
