Probiotic post feed restriction supplementation on realimentation performances, carcass characteristic, gut morphology and gut microbes of broiler chicken

Journal of Applied Poultry Research
Summary: This study investigated the impact of probiotic (Protexin) supplementation on growth performance, economic cost, and carcass components of broiler chickens during compensatory growth following feed restriction.

Microarray analysis of subcutaneous adipose tissue from mature cows with divergent body weight gain after feed restriction and realimentation

Data in Brief, 2018
Body weight response to periods of feed restriction and realimentation is critical and relevant to the agricultural industry. The purpose of this study was to evaluate differentially expressed genes identified in subcutaneous adipose tissue collected ...

Milk fatty acid profile related to energy balance in dairy cows [PDF]

, 2017
Milk fatty acid (FA) profile is a dynamic pattern influenced by lactational stage, energy balance and dietary composition. In the first part of this study, effects of the energy balance during the proceeding lactation [weeks 1-21 post partum (pp)] on ...

Time-restricted feeding alters isoflurane-induced memory deficits

Translational Neuroscience, 2020
Abstract Food consumption during the rest phase promotes circadian desynchrony, which is corrected with harmful physiological and mental disorders. Previously, we found that circadian desynchrony was involved in isoflurane-induced cognitive impairment.

Energy restriction optimizes energy partitioning and remodels intestinal energy metabolism in layer pullets

Poultry Science
This study aimed to investigate the effects of different energy-restricted program on energy metabolism in layer pullets. A total of 168 birds were randomly divided into 3 groups: regular energy (RE), energy level restriction (ER, 0.55 MJ/kg lower than ...

Restricted feeding of Leghorn layers

California Agriculture, 1975
A number of variables govern the amount of feed consumed daily by full-fed laying hens. Most important are body weight, ambient temperature, energy level of the feed, and egg production rate. A change in any one of these variables causes a compensatory change in feed intake as the birds attempt to adjust energy consumption to energy needs. But chickens

Reviewing the effects of food provisioning on wildlife immunity [PDF]

, 2018
While urban expansion increasingly encroaches on natural habitats, many wildlife species capitalize on anthropogenic food resources, which have the potential to both positively and negatively influence their responses to infection.

Feed restriction strategy in the growing rabbit. 2. Impact on digestive health, growth and carcass characteristics

Animal, 2009
A field enquiry mentioned the potential positive impact of a feed restriction on the health of young rabbits, but no objective information relates the intake to digestive health.

Effect of Genotype, Gender, and Feed Restriction on Slaughter Results and Meat Quality of Broiler Chickens [PDF]

, 2017
Slaughter results and meat quality were evaluated in 768 broilers according to genotype (standard breast yield vs. high breast yield), gender, and feeding systems (ad libitum vs. feed restriction from 13 to 21 d of age).

Heat Stress and feeding strategies in meat-type chickens [PDF]

, 2011
Heat stress can induce hyperthermia in poultry. A reduction in heat load can be achieved by increasing the possibilities for dissipation, decreasing the level of heat production or by changing the thermal production pattern within a day.
