the goal of this study was to determine the effects of ?-agonist zilpaterol hydrochloride on growth performance and carcass quality in ross broiler chicken. zilpaterol hydrochloride was daily fed at levels 0, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3 mg/kg of live body weight (lbw) from d 25 to 45 of age. eighty 308 ross female broiler chickens were employed in a 20 d feeding trial of four replicates, five birds per trea...

the aim of this study was to assess the meat quality attributes of broiler chickens fed diets supplemented with silver nanoparticles coated on zeolite. a total of 375 one-day-old broilers was assigned in a completely randomized design to 1 of 5 treatment groups including: basal diet, basal diet supplemented with 1% zeolite, and basal diet supplemented with one of the three levels of zeolite coa...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of alpha lipoic acid on the performance and serum lipid profile in broiler chicken. In this study, eighty, day-old Venn Cobb commercial broiler chicks broiler chicks were randomly distributed into two treatment groups with four replicates of ten birds each and the birds were fed with experimental diets T1 (Control ration as per BIS [1992]...

ABSTRACT- This study was designed to investigate the effects of adding different levels of date presscakes (DP), with and without enzyme supplementation (ES), on the ileal digestibility and growth performance of broiler. A completely randomized design containing 2 × 5 factorial arrangement of treatments (with and without enzyme supplementation and 5 levels of DP) was used. The enzyme complex co...

The relationship between oocyst dose and lesion score was evaluated in trials involving five field isolates each of Eimeria acervulina, Eimeria maxima, and Eimeria tenella. Each trial included an uninfected, unmedicated treatment, and at least three treatments of unmedicated birds given different doses of oocysts from a single isolate. In four trials each with E. acervulina and E. tenella, and ...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of costmary(Tanacetum balsamita)medicinal plant on performance, egg traits, and blood biochemical parameters of laying hens. Hundred-eighty of Hi-line laying hens (W 36) from 46 until 58 weeks of age were used in a completely randomized design in five treatments and three replicates (12 birds per replicate). The treatment...
