The present study was conducted on 42, 12-15 weeks old birds to study the gross and histopathological changes induced by Pasteurella multocida infection. The birds were divided into two groups viz., control and infected consisting of 21 birds each. The birds in infected group were administered with LD 50 of local isolate of Pasteurella multocida A:1. Three birds from each group were randomly sa...

We evaluated the nutritional value of broiler diets containing approximately 35% soybean meal from insect-protected soybean containing CrylAc protein, or from a similar nontransgenic control, or from 7 reference commercial soybean varieties. The feeding trial lasted 41 d, and each treatment consisted of 10 replicates of 1-d-old Ross 508 broilers (5 pens males and 5 pens females). Each pen conta...

to evaluate the effects of supplementation of tomato pomace (tp), canola, soybean and tallow oils on performance, carcass characteristics, and bone parameters of heat stressed broilers, 792 d-old arian broiler were divided to 36 pens. each dietary treatment had 4 replicate with 22 birds each. these factorial experiment (3*3) involved 3 kinds of canola, soybean and tallow oils and 3 levels of 0,...

The methionine source DL-2-hydroxy-4methylthio-butanoic acid (DL-HMB; Alimet feed supplement) is widely used in the poultry industry. The purpose of this study was to determine the capacity of the broiler liver to remove DL-HMB from the circulation. Cannulae were implanted in the carotid artery and hepatic and hepatic portal veins in anesthetized male broilers (3.33 +/- 0.13 kg BW). In Experime...
