Malabsorption Syndrome in Broiler Chickens

Avian Diseases, 1982
A disease syndrome of broiler chickens is described. Affected birds exhibited poor pigmentation of the shanks, decreased weight gains, elevated feed conversions, poor feathering, enlargement of the proventriculus, and a decrease in the size of the gizzard. Reoviruses were isolated from affected chickens from several farms.

Citrinin mycotoxicosis in broiler chickens

Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1981
Citrinin, a mycotoxin, was administered to chickens by crop gavage in dimethylsulphoxide-70% ethanol (3:1, v/v) or mixed with the diet (commercial starter mash) in four separate trials. The single-dose oral LD50 value in 7-day-old male broiler chicks was found to be 95 mg/kg. The administration of seven daily doses of citrinin equal to a half and three-

Impact of Heat Stress on Broiler Chicken Production

Poultry
Poultry farmers need to consider making adaptations now to help reduce cost, risk, and concern in the future; the industry’s high and unstable input costs, which result in losses, need to incentivize manufacturers to concentrate on efficient management ...

Zoalene Toxicity in Broiler Chickens

Avian Diseases, 1963
Toxic factors accidentally incorporated into commercial rations and causing pathology are rare in relation to the millions of tons of rations prepared for domestic animals. Some exceptions, each causing a typical gross and microscopic change, include the following: 1) A chlorinated naphthalene contaminating the lubricant of a cattle feed pelleting ...

Pharmacokinetics of sparfloxacin in broiler chicken

British Poultry Science, 2006
1. The pharmacokinetics of sparfloxacin in broiler chicken was investigated following a single intravenous dose of 10 mg/kg and a single oral dose of 20 mg/kg. The pharmacokinetic parameters (AUC(0-24) or C(max)) were integrated with the pharmacodynamic parameter (MIC(90)) to optimize sparfloxacin dosage in chicken. 2.

Experimental Biliary Cryptosporidiosis in Broiler Chickens

Avian Diseases, 1990
Biliary cryptosporidiosis was studied by inoculation of 2 x 10(5) Cryptosporidium baileyi oocysts (AU-B1 isolate) into the gall bladders of ten 6-day-old broiler chickens. Clinical signs of disease were not seen. Three of the 10 chickens developed biliary tract infections, based on histologic examination of tissue sections.

Pharmacokinetics of amoxicillin in broiler chickens

Avian Pathology, 1996
Amoxicillin was given to two groups of eight chickens at a dose of 10 mg/kg of body weight, intravenously (i.v.) or orally. Plasma concentration was monitored serially for 24 h after each administration. Concentrations of amoxicillin were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography.

Polytetrafluoroethylene Gas Intoxication in Broiler Chickens

Avian Diseases, 2000
A poultry research facility that housed 2400 Peterson x Hubbard cross broilers (48 pens of 50 chicks each) experienced 4% mortality within 24 hr of chick placement. Mortality started within 4 hr of placement, and within 72 hr, cumulative mortality had reached 52%. Mild dyspnea was the only clinical sign noted in some chicks prior to death.

Campylobacterspecies in broiler chickens

Avian Pathology, 1984
The incidence of Campylobacter spp. in broiler chickens in Northern Ireland was determined by examining three groups of birds. These included: (1)12 flocks of broilers monitored at regular intervals from their introduction into commercial units until the time of slaughter; (2) 21 batches of unsolicited birds submitted to the laboratory for postmortem ...
