Colonization of Broilers with Campylobacter in Conventional Broiler-Chicken Flocks [PDF]

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 1986
Eight of 16 conventional broiler-chicken flocks examined contained Campylobacter. All isolates were identified as C. jejuni except from 1 flock were C. coli was isolated. One herd consisting of 6 different houses where Campylobacter regularly has been isolated was continuously examined.

Supplemental L-arginine improves feed conversion and modulates lipid metabolism in male and female broilers from 29 to 42 days of age

Animal, 2021
The excessive accumulation of abdominal fat in broilers is an economic waste. Supplemental dietary L-arginine has been shown to reduce lipogenesis in broilers, but studies on this subject are still scarce.

Effects of dietary methionine on breast muscle growth, myogenic gene expression and IGF-I signaling in fast- and slow-growing broilers

Scientific Reports, 2017
This study investigated the responses of fast- (FG) and slow- (SG) growing broilers to dietary methionine (Met) status. The broilers were subjected to low (LM, 0.38 and 0.28 g/100 g), adequate (AM, 0.51 and 0.42 g/100 g) and high (HM, 0.65 and 0.52 g/100
