Thyme Essential Oil and Hyaluronic Acid as Natural Disinfectant Alternatives for Broiler Breeder Fertile Eggs: Effects on Eggshell Microbial Load, Embryonic Viability and Hatchability

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Natural eggshell sanitation using thyme essential oil reduced microbial contamination and lipid peroxidation while improving embryo viability and hatchability in stored broiler breeder fertile eggs. These findings support thyme essential oil as a promising residue‐free alternative for hatchery egg sanitation.

Evaluation of the Antioxidant Status of Ethanolic Extract of Hypericum perforatum and Its Effect on Performance, Immune System, Antioxidant Status and Plasma Biochemical Indices of Broiler Chickens

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Hypericum perforatum ethanolic extract (HPEE) at the levels of 0, 150, 300 and 450 mg/kg were used and dietary treatments did not affect growth performance including feed intake, body weight and feed conversion ratio. The HPPE reduced the abdominal fat and improved meat quality in broilers.

Probiotics and Their Functional Role in Mitigating Antinutrient Effects In Vivo—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Antinutrients like phytic acid and oxalates reduce mineral bioavailability by forming insoluble complexes with iron, zinc, and calcium. Probiotic supplementation may counteract these effects through enzymatic activity (e.g., phytase, oxalate decarboxylase) and microbiota modulation. This PRISMA‐based meta‐analysis evaluated 27 in vivo studies (

Integrated Metabolomics and Gut Microbiota Analysis Reveal the Intestinal Stress Response of Juvenile Four‐Finger Threadfin (Eleutheronema tetradactylum) to Nitrite Exposure

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
Nitrite exposure induces intestinal stress in juvenile Eleutheronema tetradactylum, characterized by microbial dysbiosis, metabolic reprogramming, and altered digestive enzyme activities. Integrated metabolomics and microbiota analyses reveal coordinated hostmicrobe responses involving key pathways such as ABC transporters and amino acid metabolism ...

Targeting Myostatin for Sustainable Meat Production: Insights From Multiple Species

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Myostatin gene (MSTN), a TGF‐β superfamily member, negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth, positioning it as a prime genetic target for enhancing livestock meat production. This review synthesizes evidence from 1979 to 2025 on MSTN mutations across cattle, pigs, poultry, sheep, goats, and rabbits, emphasising impacts on yield, quality ...

Corn response to broiler litter total cleanout frequency

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Broiler (Gallus gallus domesticus) litter is a valuable nutrient source for corn (Zea mays L.) production in the southeastern United States; however, differences in total cleanout frequency of broiler houses may influence the agronomic value of broiler litter. A 3‐year field study was established on Decatur silt loam and Malbis sandy clay loam

Potassium Diformate Attenuates Inflammation and Enhances Intestinal Barrier Function Associated With Gut Microbiota Modulation in Nursery Piglets

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Twenty‐four weaned piglets were assigned to four dietary groups supplemented with 0%, 0.6%, 1.2%, or 1.8% K‐diformate for 28 days. Dietary addition with K‐diformate (especially 1.8%) improved growth performance, inflammation, and intestinal barrier function associated with gut microbiota modulation in nursery piglets.
