Oleuropein has hypophagic effects in broiler chicks. [PDF]

Front Physiol
Oleuropein, a phenolic compound derived from olives, has known glucoregulatory effects in mammalian models but effects in birds are unknown. We investigated effects of dietary supplementation and exogenous administration of oleuropein on broiler chick feed intake and glucose homeostasis during the first 7 days post-hatch.

Effect of Cyclic Heat Exposure on the Growth Performance and Metabolism of Broilers Fed Palm Kernel Meal

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The aim of our study is to evaluate the interaction between HS and the incorporation of PKM in broiler chicken diets, as well as its effect on growth performance and metabolism. Based on the results obtained, PKM supplementation failed to mitigate the adverse effects of heat stress in broiler chickens. ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Effects of Induced Moisture Loss in Chicken Embryos at Embryonic Day 18 and Post-hatch Immune Response During Salmonella enteritidis Lipopolysaccharide Challenge in Broilers

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of induced moisture loss on embryonic development and the immune response following an inflammatory challenge immediately post-hatch. In Experiment I, fertile leghorn eggs (n = 100) and commercial

Extrusion and Pancreatin Superdosing Modulate the Metabolic Impact of 20% Chlorella vulgaris Inclusion in Broiler Diets

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microalgae such as Chlorella vulgaris are gaining attention as sustainable and nutritionally valuable feed ingredients, with the potential to partially replace soybean meal in broiler diets. However, dietary inclusion of 20% C. vulgaris has been attempted, but negatively affected growth performance due to limited digestibility.

Response of Broiler Chicks to a Single Dose of Aflatoxin

Poultry Science, 1972
Abstract 270, day-old broiler chicks (Peterson×Peterson) were divided into 5 groups of 54 birds. Each group was composed of 27 males and 27 females. The five groups of birds received crude aflatoxin administered directly into the gizzard, in doses of 0.0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.6, and 3.2 mg./kg. body weight, respectively of aflatoxin B1 equivalents.
