Effect of Probiotic and Synbiotic Supplementation on Growth Performance, Serum Parameters and Gut Histomorphometry in Broiler Chickens Challenged With Eimeria. [PDF]
This study assessed probiotic and synbiotic supplementation via drinking water in Eimeria challenged broilers. In a 2×3 factorial design with 360 Cobb 500 chickens, Eimeria impaired growth, FCR and gut morphology, while probiotics and synbiotics improved performance, intestinal structure and serum biochemistry, alleviating coccidiosis induced damage ...

Safety and efficacy of a feed additive consisting of narasin and diclazuril (Interban®) for chickens for fattening and chickens reared for laying (Elanco GmbH). [PDF]
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of the coccidiostat consisting of narasin and diclazuril (Interban®) for chickens for fattening and chickens reared for laying. The FEEDAP Panel concludes that the use of Streptomyces sp. NRRL B‐67771 in the production of
