Spirochaetosis in broilers [PDF]

open access: yesAvian 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]

open access: yesItalian 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

Welfare of broilers on farm [PDF]

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2023
This Scientific Opinion considers the welfare of domestic fowl (Gallus gallus) related to the production of meat (broilers) and includes the keeping of day-old chicks, broiler breeders, and broiler chickens. Currently used husbandry systems in the EU are described. Overall, 19 highly relevant welfare consequences (WCs) were identified based on severity,

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

open access: yesActa 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

open access: yesAnimal, 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

open access: yesScientific 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
