The objective of this paper was to study the responses on productive performance, carcass characteristics and plasma constituents of modern broiler chicks to administration of cinnamon powder (CP) in the diet. Commercial breeds (Ross 308) of broiler chicks examined from 1 to 42 days of age. This experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and four replicates (15...

The aim of the present experiment was to investigate the effects of feeding grains naturally contaminated with Fusarium mycotoxins on morphometric indices of jejunum and to follow the passage of deoxynivalenol (DON) through subsequent segments of the digestive tract of broilers. A total of 45 1-d-old broiler chickens (Ross 308 males) were randomly allotted to three dietary treatments (15 birds/...

Vinculin is a 117 kDa microfilament-associated protein located at the cytoplasmic aspects of focal contacts and cell-cell adherens type junctions. In both sites, vinculin participates in the formation of a submembrane 'plaque' structure which is responsible for the attachment of actin filaments to the plasma membrane. Vinculin consists of 1066 amino acids, which form a large 90 kDa globular hea...
