The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different levels of chicory root and stem powder (CRSP) and butyric acid (BA) combination on the performance, carcass traits, relative weight of internal organs and some blood parameters in broiler chickens. Two hundred and forty one-day-old broilers (Ross 308) were used in a completely randomized design with four treatments with six re...

effects of chromium nano particles (nanocr) on performance and meat quality of japanese quail under physiological stress was determined by  using 360 birds in a completely randomized design with six treatments, four replicates and 15 birds per each, during  17- 35 d of age. the tratments were negative control (non-stressed), and five groups under physiological stress which fed on diets suppleme...

Phase-feeding (PF; Treatment 2) was tested relative to an NRC regimen (Treatment 1) to evaluate the impact of PF on broilers during the finisher period (42 to 63 d). Two modified PF treatments were also tested during this experiment: Treatment 3 involved lowering the amino acid requirements predicted with PF linear regression equations by 10% (PF10), Treatment 4 involved increasing the slope of...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with cinnamon powder, cinnamon oil, and synbiotic as growth promoter agents on growth performance, blood parameters, and intestinal microbial populations in Japanese quails. A total of 420 one-day-old Japanese quails were randomly assigned to 7 treatments with 4 replicates. The dietary treatments consi...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of olive leaf (OL) on immune response and some blood metabolites of broiler chickens. A total of 400 one-day-old broiler chicks (male and female) were randomly assigned to 5 experimental treatments with 4 replicates of 20 birds each. Birds of different treatments were given diets containing 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1% OL powder from 14 to 4...

in this study the effects of mesolites from moghueieh region and their particles size on performance, blood biochemical parameters and nutrient digestibility in broiler chickens were evaluated. the experiment was conducted on a completely randomized design with three treatments: without mesolite (control) and with fine particle mesolite (passed of 1 mm sieve and stay in 0.225 mm sieve) or large...
