Impact of ß-Glucan with Non-Glucan Biomaterials on Growth Performance, Carcass Characteristics, and Viable Count of Lactobacilli in Broiler Chicks

Tropical Animal Science Journal
Probiotics, prebiotics, and immunomodulators like β-glucan have become popular feed additives. Thus, this study examined the effects of a β-glucan product fortified with dietary biomaterials (fats, proteins, and minerals) on broiler chicks’ growth ...

Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

Comparison of Objective External Carcass Measurements and Subjective Conformation Scores for Prediction of Lamb Carcass Quality [PDF]

, 1997
Carcass measurements were collected from 1505 lambs over a 2-yr period by a single technician. The lambs (rams, ewes and wethers) were classified as either meat-type or wool-type, with meat-type subdivided by frame size into light, medium or large ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Effect of different threonine to lysine (threonine / lysine) on growth performance and carcass composition in growth-finishing swine

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2003
Ninety-six Duroc-Landrace-Yorkshire piglets which weighed about 28kg were randomly divided into four groups to be used in studying the different ratios of threonine to lysine (0.62, 0.67, 0.72 and 0.78) on growth performance and carcass composition in ...
