The aim of the study was to evaluate effects fisetin and probiotic on erythrocyte osmotic fragility (EOF), malondialdehyde (MDA) superoxide dismutase (SOD) in broiler chickens exposed heat stress. Sixty day-old broilers were divided into: Group I (control) given distilled water; II, (5 mg/kg); III, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (4.125 × 106 cfu/100 ml); IV, mg/kg) + ml) orally for 7 days. Blood samples collected from 42-day-old birds evaluated EOF, serum MDA concentration SOD activity. Percentage...
Anti-diabetic effects of ethanolic extract stem bark Anogeissus leiocarpus were investigated in alloxan monohydrate-induced acute type 1 diabetes mellitus (TIDM) extending into chronicity and organic damages 12 adult Nigerian indigenous dogs assigned 4 groups 3 each, namely: non-diabetic controls (ND), diabetic untreated (DU), insulin-treated (DI) extract-treated (DE). All parameters analysed using standard procedures. Hyperglycaemia occurred the dogs; blood glucose significantly (P < 0.001)...
SUMMARYThis paper reviews adverse effects of heat stress on haematology and small intestinal changes as well the beneficial antioxidant agents, probable mechanisms by which agents ameliorate stress. High ambient temperature high relative humidity cause stress, negatively impacts production, reproduction, immunity health broiler chickens. The cardiovascular system, particularly sensitive to in temperature, is an indicator physiological responses stressors Heat decreases blood flow,...
The study aimed to assess the effects of different dietary Silybum marianum (SM, milk thistle) powder levels on growth performance, productivity, immunity, small intestine, haemato-biochemical parameters, meat quality, and egg carcass characteristics laying quails. experimental subjects consisted one hundred eight 43-day-old quails divided into 3 treatments (0, 0.75, 1.50% SM) with 4 replicates each. performance were evaluated. Quails euthanized for evaluation carcasses, microbiota, sensory...
Abstract We studied the dietary effects of probiotic and fisetin supplementation on performance parameters, carcass characteristics small intestinal morphology in broiler chickens. Sixty (one-day-old) Arbo Acre breed chickens were allotted into 4 groups 15 each randomly: Group I, Control was administered only distilled water; II, (5 mg/kg); III, (4.125×10 6 cfu/100 mL); IV, mL 5 mg/kg, respectively) for first one week life. All administrations performed orally through gavage. Broiler...
Abstract There is dearth information on the role of fisetin as an antistress agent in ameliorating heat stress broiler chickens. Here, we experimentally compared probiotic, antioxidant and agent, with fisetin, little or no report its effect. Sixty-day-old chickens (Arbo Acre breed) were allotted into 4 groups 15 birds each follows; control, + probiotic groups, respectively. All administrations performed orally through gavage for treatment groups. The environmental cloacal temperature (CT)...
In this study, the age-dependent variations in haematological and serum biochemical parameters of domestic pigeons were evaluated. Sixty apparently healthy comprising 30 young (2–7 weeks age) adult (>7 sampled from local breeders. Blood was collected each bird via brachial venipuncture divided into 2 parts; one part dispensed labeled tubes containing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid as anticoagulant processed for analyses. The other plain tubes, harvested Results revealed overall packed cells...
The study aimed to elucidate serum and testicular oxidative stress changes induced by bisphenol A (BPA) their amelioration Azanza garckeana (AG) pulp extract melatonin. Adult New Zealand White rabbit bucks (n = 42), with average live weight of 1.2 ± 0.03 kg aged 10-18 months were fed ad libitum on a commercial diet. They randomly divided into seven groups six (6) each. Group was administered distilled water (1.5 mL); group B, BPA (100 mg/kg); C, AG (500 D, melatonin (1.0 E pre-dosed for...
in heat-stressed broiler chickens. One hundred and twenty chicks were allocated into four groups of 30 each. Group A (feed restriction), B restriction + L-serine), C (ad libitum) D libitum L-serine). Feed (20%) was implemented on days 7–14, L-serine (200 mg/kg) provided orally from 1–14. Seven chickens slaughtered each group at 35 old to determine meat drip loss, cooking loss pH; tibia bone weight, length, diameter, weight/length index, robusticity strength proximate analysis. Serum samples...
The study evaluated ascorbic acid (AA) effects on diurnal fluctuations in cloacal temperature (CT) guinea-fowls. Twenty guinea-fowls were each assigned to two groups: Group I was administered with distilled water and II treated daily AA (50 mg/kg) orally. Measurements of dry-bulb (DBT) relative humidity (RH), obtain temperature-humidity index (THI), CT guinea-fowl taken concurrently the pen thrice a day for 3 days, 1 week apart, during rainy, cold-dry (harmattan) hot-dry seasons. Values THI...
