Mycotoxins and coccidiosis in poultry – co-occurrence, interaction, and effects
Avian coccidiosis, a common disease caused by Eimeria species, results in significant losses in global poultry production. Mycotoxins are low-molecular-weight natural products (i.e., small molecules) produced as secondary metabolites by filamentous fungi

Poultry Coccidiosis: Design and Interpretation of Vaccine Studies. [PDF]
Eimeria infection impacts upon chicken welfare and economic productivity of the poultry sector. Live coccidiosis vaccines for chickens have been available for almost 70 years, but the requirement to formulate blends of oocysts from multiple Eimeria species makes vaccine production costly and logistically demanding.

Effects of Betaine on Performance, Blood Biochemistry, Nutrient Utilization and Gut Health in Coccidia-Infected Broilers. [PDF]
Betaine supplementation improved growth performance, nutrient digestibility, blood lipid profiles and caecal lesion scores in broilers experimentally challenged with coccidiosis, with the greatest benefits observed at 600 mg/kg, highlighting its potential as a supportive dietary strategy against coccidial infection. ABSTRACT The objective of this study

Efficacy of Routinely Used Anticoccidials Against Eimeria tenella Field Isolates in Chicken: Bangladesh Perspective. [PDF]
Among five experimental drugs, toltrazuril showed the highest effectiveness, whereas sulphaclozine was found to be resistant among all the isolates against caecal coccidiosis. The outcome recommends toltrazuril against chicken coccidiosis but highly suggests avoiding long‐term use to minimize drug resistance.
