Six dietary treatments for 300 one-day-old chicks allocated as follows: controls fed a basal diet, one group was an EO-supplemented diet (1.5 g/kg parsley, mint, carrot (1:1:1)), other groups received Eos +...

Feeding broiler chickens on diets based cereal grains of high non-starch polysaccharides content such as wheat and barley can negatively impact their performance gut health. Plant extracts be used a potential tool to alleviate these negative effects. The present study assessed the effects dietary type inclusion plant extract blend (PEB) growth performance, intestinal histomorphology, caecal microflora, gene expression selected biomarkers for integrity in 42-d experiment. Ross-308 male...

The current study was designed as (2 × 3) factorial groups of 20 and 40 mg Zn/kg diet from each inorganic (zinc oxide), organic (Zn-methionine) nanoparticle (nano-zinc oxide) sources supplemented to six Nile tilapia (O. niloticus) fingerling diets. results showed both nano-Zn-administered groups, especially at mg/kg, exhibited significant improvements in body weight, total gain, feed conversion ratio specific growth rate compared Zn-supplemented groups. Nano-Zn, mg/kg diet, increased...

In modern aquaculture, enriching Nile tilapia's diet with omega-3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) not only plays an important role in its general health but also fortifies fillet omega-3-PUFAs. However, the major challenge affecting their delivery is high instability due to oxidative deterioration. Thus, prospective incorporation of omega-3-PUFAs into nanocarriers can enhance stability and bioactivity. this regard, effect reformulated omega-3-NPs was investigated on performance, flesh...

Inclusion of microbial fermented soybean meal in broiler feed has induced advantageous outcomes for their performance and gastrointestinal health via exhibiting probiotic effects. In this study, (SBM) was subjected to double-stage fermentation utilizing functional metabolites fungi bacteria. diet, DFSBM replaced SBM by 0, 25, 50 100%. reported have higher protein content total essential, nonessential free amino acids (increased 3.67%, 12.81%, 10.10% 5.88-fold, respectively, compared SBM)....

The use of natural plant extracts in poultry feed could improve their productivity as well the oxidative stability stored derived meat. roles cornelian cherry extract (CCE) growth, cecal microbes, and meat antioxidative markers broiler chickens were evaluated. A total 500 Ross 308 chicks fed diets supplemented with CCE (0, 50, 100, 200, 400 mg/kg diet) for 38 days. highest levels weight gain utilization observed a group 200 CCE. Maximum upregulation glucose transporters—1 2 sodium-dependent...
