A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of aflatoxin (AF)-contaminated diets on growth and hematological immunological parameters. Low doses aflatoxins (140 280 ppb) were included in a corn-soybean diet provided for ad libitum consumption 36 weanling piglets period 4 wk. "dose-related" decrease weight gain observed treated animals. This significant (P < 0.05) ppb-treated group compared control group. Ingestion AF-contaminated feed at either level had no total red blood cell...
This paper presents the development, optimization and validation of a new HPLC method used for separation determination zearalenone, ZON, its metabolites in biological samples Leghorn broiler. ZON can be separated with good resolution 11 min, using Hypersil Gold C18 column, mobile phase mixture 50 mM aqueous ammonium acetate:acetonitrile:methanol, 45:8:47 (v/v/v), flow rate 1 mL/min column temperature 40 degrees C. Based on results obtained by this applied one conclude that liver is site...
Plants and plant extracts (PPEs) have gained increasing interest as feed additives possible replacing antibiotics for pig productions. The effects of dietary Chlorella vulgaris (1%), sodium alginate (0.1%), inulin (1.5%), a mixture essential oils (0.04%) supplements on immune response, bioavailability some micronutrients (iron - Fe, copper Cu, manganese Mn, zinc Zn) were investigated in weaned piglets this study. results showed that the concentration IgG was increased plasma pigs fed PPEs...
This study aimed to determine the effect of dietary creeping wood sorrel powder (Oxalis corniculata) and chromium supplemented broilers (1-42 days) exposed heat stress, on their performance intestinal caecal microbiota.Area study: Ilfov, RomaniaMaterial methods: The feeding trial was conducted 60, day-old Cobb 500 broilers, divided equally in two groups, each group with six replicates (5 chicks/ replicate). were housed an experimental hall at 32° C constant temperature 23h light regimen....
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect dietary mulberry leaves on nutrient digestibility and layer performances. experiment conducted for 30 days 105 Lohman Brown layers assigned 3 groups (C, E1 E2) with 35 layers/group. experimental diets included 3% (E1) 6% (E2) leaves. had free access food. feed intake, egg production, conversion ratio, mass production weight were recorded; no significant difference noticed between groups. Digestibility studies performed weeks 2 (5...
A 28-day feeding trial was conducted on 60, Cobb 500 broilers (14 days), assigned to 2 groups (C, E) housed in an experimental hall (32° C, 23 h light regimen). Compared the conventional diet (E) included 1% white willow bark extract (WBE). At 42 days of age, 6 blood samples /group were collected and broilers/ group slaughtered caecal content collected. The dietary WBE didn’t influence broiler performance. serum concentrations glycaemia, cholesterol triglycerides lower (P <0.05) E than C...
Abstract A feeding trial was performed on 60, Cobb 500 broiler chicks (14-28 days) assigned to 2 groups (C, E) housed in an experimental hall with 32˚C air temperature, 36% humidity and 23 h light regimen. The conventional diet (C), corn soybean meal as basic ingredients, had 3082.48 kcal/kg metabolisable energy 19.99% crude protein. Unlike the of C group, group (E) 1% willow bark extract (Salix alba). At age 28 days, 5 broilers/group were slaughtered samples caecal content collected for...
A study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary hydroalcoholic willow bark extract powder (HWE) supplemented broilers (14–42 days old) that were exposed heat stress, on performance, serum biochemical parameters, liver oxidative status and caecal microflora. The feeding trial 120 Cobb 500 (14 old), assigned three treatments (T0, T25, T50), each treatment consisting eight replicates (five chicks per replicate). housed in an experimental hall at a 32 °C constant temperature 23 hours...
The effects of inulin-supplemented diet on Cu, Mn, and Zn bioavailability in recently weaned piglets raised at an experimental a commercial farm were studied. Piglets 28 days age, when all them fed barley-wheat based starter supplemented with usual vitamin-mineral premix for piglets. reference group received additional 50 mg zinc per kg diet, while the inulin was 1.5% (no zinc). Both diets, low inorganic copper (provided only from forages), covered demands minerals growing Four sacrificed...
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect partial or total replacement inorganic Cu and Fe salts by organic forms these elements on broiler performance elimination minerals through droppings. A conducted for 42 days 240 chicks treated with trace chelates amino acids: B-TRAXIMRTEC Cu-I30; BTRAXIMRTEC Fe-120. were housed in cages (10 per cage, 6 group) assigned 4 groups (C, E1, E3 E3) fed same corn-soybean meal-based diet. Phased-feeding used according developmental stages broilers...
