Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Multi‐Omics Insights Into the Role of Fructooligosaccharides Supplementation in Alleviating Salpingitis in Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multi‐omics analysis revealed that FOS supplementation increased the abundance of Phascolarctobacterium, GCA‐900066575, Shuttleworthia, Olsenella, Eubacterium_hallii_group while decreasing Alistipes. It also influenced the metabolism of S‐lactoylglutathione, p‐cresol glucuronate, 2‐phenylethanol glucuronide, propionic acid, dulcitol, and inhibited the ...

Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices on Antimicrobial Usage and Resistance Among Broiler and Layer Poultry Farmers in Bangladesh: Lessons for Future Improvement. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study highlights widespread antimicrobial misuse among Bangladeshi poultry farmers, driven by low AMR awareness (91.16%), non‐prescription purchases (48.98%), and reliance on dealers (reliance on dealers). Targeted education, stricter regulations, and surveillance are crucial to foster responsible practices and mitigate AMR risks.

Evaluation of a Product Intended for Microbiological Control in Animal Production, and Its Combination With Halquinol

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Activo Liquid and Halquinol inhibit Salmonella and Escherichia coli in culture media. Activo Liquid exhibits bactericidal action, whereas HA is bacteriostatic, and their combination results in positive or indifferent interactions. This combination effectively inhibits E. coli throughout digestion simulation, thus reducing the required concentrations of

Reduction of Ribonucleotide Reductase Subunit RRM2 Potentially Impairs Gut Function of Woody Breast Broilers

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Woody breast compromises meat quality leading to reduced consumer appeal. Although its causes are unclear, improvements observed with certain dietary supplements suggest that gut health may influence woody breast development. Ribonucleotide reductase subunit RRM2 is vital for mitochondrial function and gastrointestinal integrity, and alteration in its ...

Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.
