Polish Journal of veterinary sciences Polish Journal of Veterinary Sciences Vol. 21, No. 2 (2018), 5–12 DOI 10.24425/122605 Original article Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the anticoccidial effect of apple cider vinegar added to drinking water with the anticoccidial effect of amprolium to feed broiler chicken. The study has adopted an observational approach to evaluate the anticoccidial effect of apple cider vinegar on broiler chicken. The antioxidative changes were measured adding natural apple cider vinegar to drinking water. Four hundred and fifty broiler chickens were purchased from the local market and distributed into three groups (T+vc: positive control, T-vc: negative control Tv: apple cider vinegar) with 150 chickens in each group. The three groups were further replicated into 3 blocks each containing 50 chickens. The groups were fed balanced diet, amprolium was added to the feed of positive control group, and apple cider vinegar was added to the water of Tv group. Measurements of the different variables were started from week 3, at the end of each week 3 birds were chosen randomly, blood samples were collected via the wing vein, and fecal oocysts were counted from intestinal contents of each individual bird using the McMaster technique. Broiler in the control groups T+ve and T-ve showed clinical signs of coccidiosis (blood in feces) and the number of coccidial oocytes in feces increased with time. In the vinegar group, no clinical signs of coccidiosis were observed. Concentrations of total antioxidants and catalase enzyme activity significantly increased (p≤0.05); while malondialdehyde concentration significantly decreased (p≤0.05).

Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science ABSTRACT A total of 400 one-day-old, straight-run, commercial (Ross 308) broiler chicks were used to evaluate the effects of two dietary levels of zinc (Zn) sources on broiler chick performance, carcass traits and blood parameters. Corn-soybean diets were formulated for three rearing phases (starter, grower and finisher). The two dietary treatments applied consisted of the addition per kg of diet of 80mg of inorganic Zn (ZnO) (T1), or 80mg of ZnO plus 42mg of an organic Zn-amino acid complex (Availa-Zn120; Zinpro Corporation, Eden Prairie, MN, USA), totaling 122mg of the combined organic and inorganic Zn sources (T2). Birds were distributed according to a completely randomized design in the two treatments with eight replicates (pens) of 25 birds each. Feed and water were provided ad libitum. On day 42, blood samples were taken from four birds closest to the group average weight per replicate (32 per treatment) and then slaughtered for carcass evaluation. The results of this study did not find any significant effect of either of the evaluated Zn sources on broiler growth performance. Mortality rate was significantly lower (p

International conference on Mathmatical , Computational and statistical Sciences and Engineering (MCSSE, 2016) Keywords: Jordan, Irrigation ponds, Duckweed, Water purifying, Laying hen, Egg production. Abstract. Duckweed plants have been seen to grow naturally in Jordan’s irrigation ponds. Their massive reproductive capacity causes the formation of a dense cover of these plants, and raises the attention towards studying their functions as a natural water purifying agent, and as a feed source for laying hens. Therefore, this paper examined the average percentages of nutrients’ removal by duckweed, and the production performance of laying hens. The results showed that the growth of duckweed in irrigation ponds serves as a purifier for irrigation water. These plants remove an average of 20% Ca, 33% Mg, 21% K, 13% Cl, 25% SO4, 35% PO4, 1.5% Na, and 40% NO3. The analysis of the water source in irrigation ponds showed that the heavy metals (Zn, Cd, Pb, and Cu), are within Ideal Detection Limits. The analyzed duckweed samples contain; 26% protein, 2913 Kcal/Kg metabolizable energy, 5.2 fiber, 3.1% fat, 4.3% Ca and 0.86% P. A feeding trial was conducted on laying hens by replacing part of soybean with percentage of duckweed, and proved its efficiency on laying hens egg production. The results highlight the importance of this research to undergo further studies as to the utilization of these plants as a water purifier, and as the future promising feed source for livestock sector.

Abstract The effects of three commercial organic acids on enzymes activity, hematological and biochemical indices in broilers were examined in six weeks trial. Newly hatched chicks received one of the following 6 treatments: positive control group (CTL+); negative 16 control (CTL−); antibiotic, (NEOX); Gallimix (GALI); FormaXOL, (FORMA); and Fysal, (FYS). At 16 days of age, chicks in all treatments except for the control were inoculated with (3 x109 CFU/ml) of Salmonella enterica subsp. Typhimurium (ST). Th results revealed that albumin, globulin and their ratio were influenced by the time of 20 blood collection (P

Summary The present study was conducted to determine the effect of dietary supplementation of organic acids combined with synergistic components, using a commercial product Lumance™ (Innovad NV, Belgium) containing esterified butyrins, propionic acid and sorbic acid, with medium chain fatty acids (capric, caprylic, and lauric acid) and plant extracts, on the productive performance and mortality of growing broiler chickens. A total of 492, one day old broiler chicks (Ross 308) were randomly allocated to four experimental treatments either with an unsupplemented control or 0.05, 0.1 or 0.15% organic acid mixture in a pelleted corn/soyabean meal diet, which were offered ad libitum until 35 days of age. Results showed that birds in the 0.1% supplemented diet group gave significantly higher (P < 0.05) body weights during the first two weeks of age and increased weight gain during the first three weeks of age. The inclusion had no effect on broiler mortality. Keywords: broiler: organic acid: butyrate: performance: mortality: Lumance™ (Received 28 March 2014 – Accepted 11 May 2014)

AbThsits rwaocrkt aimed to investigate the effects on performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens of 2 levels of guanidino acetic acid (GAA) in a commercial form (CreAMINO®) and 4 levels of metabolisable energy. The eight dietary regimens were tested for starter (0-10 d), grower (11-22 d) and finisher (23-35 d) periods on a total of 200 male ROSS 308 broiler chickens in a factorial arrangements of treatments (2􀀀4), with experimental diet fed to 5 replicate pens with 4 birds each. The results revealed a positive effect for CreAMINO® supplementation on feed conversion ratio (FCR) for the starter, grower, finisher and cumulative periods (P

Environmental Engineering and Computer Application, chapter 17 ABSTRACT: This paper focuses on the irrigation water quality and on growth trend of aquatic plant so called duckweed (Lemna sp.) in farm ponds. It also focuses on duckweed growth management utilizing its benefit at farm level. The results showed that the water quality analysis in mg/l of Ca is between 120-113, Mg 48-40, K 22-18, Cl 349-340, SO4 220-188, PO4 7.6-6.3, Na 212-205, and NO3 38-31. The average protein value in dry matter of duckweed is 26%. At laboratory, duckweed’s growth showed an approximately exponential trend that continues until fronds face scarcity of nutrients. This requires the involvement of local farmers towards plant growth management. In this study, 50% of duckweed growth should be harvested every four days to be utilized as future promising feed source for broilers. Further studies will be conducted on the duckweed’s benefit values.

Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of early feed restriction on growth performance and carcass characteristics in broiler chickens. A total of 800 1-d old broilers were randomly allotted to ad libitum and 3 feed-restricted treatments, each of which was replicated 8 times (25 birds per replicate) in a randomized complete block design. Broilers were feed-restricted between 8 and 14 d of age, and fed either control ad libitum diet (F100), 50% feed intake (FI50), 65% feed intake (FI65), or 80% feed intake (FI80). Results showed that body weight and weight gain were significantly (p

Abstract: A study was conducted to investigate the effect of adding a commercial multienzyme feed additive (Tomoko, Biogenkoji Research Institute, Japan) on the performance of broilers. Four isoenergetic and isontirogenous diets consisting of control diet without enzyme (Con) and three test diets supplemented with Tomoko at 250 (T250), 500 (T500) and 750 (T750) g/tonne of feed were used for starter, grower and finisher phases. Each diet was offered to 10 replicates of 40 one-day-old straight-run Lohmann broiler chicks (n = 1600) in a randomized complete block design (10 blocks of 4 diets each). Data was analyzed using mixed procedure of SAS (repeated measures analysis) for a randomized complete block design, with level of significance set at p = 0.05. Enzyme used in the study was authenticated by the supplier to have minimum level of acidic protease (10,000 U/g), alpha-amylase (40 U/g), pectinase (30 U/g), phytase (10 U/g), glucoamylase (5 U/g) and cellulase (4 U/g). Enzyme supplementation had no significant effect on Feed Intake (FI) at 21 d, while at 42 d birds fed T250 and Con diets significantly consumed more feed than T500 and/or T750. No significant differences were observed for Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR). Body Weight (BW) and Body Weight Gain (BWG) were significantly higher (p

Efect of aflatoxins B1 (AFB1) contaminated feeds on performance parameters (feed intake, body gain and feed conversion ratio) and on the Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) content of chicken meat was investigated in broiler chicks. Feed contaminated with aflatoxin B1 caused a significant (p< 1000 ppb). The CLA content of fat extracted from poultry meat with the skin at the end of the second week was found to be reduced by a minimum of 20% at the end of the second week when the feed was contaminated with AFB1 for the three treatments. Keywords: AFB1, Broiler, Performance, Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA).
