Spirochaetosis in broilers [PDF]
Avian Pathology, 1992 One-day-old broilers were inoculated with spirochaetes (isolate 1380); the inocula consisting either of spirochaetes derived from plate culture or from intestinal homogenates of previously infected birds. After 13 to 15, and 21 days after inoculation growth was depressed, serum concentrations of protein lipid, carotenoids and bilirubin were decreased ...

Welfare of broiler chickens [PDF]
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2009 Broiler chickens have been selected for their rapid growth rate as well as for high carcass yields, with particular regard to the breast, and reared in intensive systems at high stocking density ranging from 30 to 40 kg live weight/m2. These conditions lead to a worsening of the welfare status of birds. In Europe a specific directive for the protection

Comparison of different dietary sources of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on immune response in broiler chickens [PDF]
, 2020 The study aims to research the effects of varied dietary sources of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on the immune response in broiler chickens with stress on natural killer (NK) cell activity. Diets supplemented with one of the four sources of n-3

Influence of stocking density on welfare indices of broilers
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2013 The current study was conducted to identify the influence of short-term (five days) high stocking density (SD) on broilers' welfare by assessing several thermophysiological parameters in 32 birds of 43 days of age Ross male broiler chickens.
