Twenty five samples of maize intended for human or animal consumption coming from North, Central and South Vietnam were analysed fungal contamination the presence aflatoxin B 1 fumonisin . The total load was found to be greater in feed than with average levels 4x10 6 7x10 5 CFU/g, respectively. Identification strains revealed that Aspergillus most frequent genus, all whatever their use geographic origin. Among species, A. flavus contaminant, observed more 90% samples. Other Vietnamese...

Trichotecenes are mycotoxins produced by Fusarium sp., which may contaminate animal feeds and human food. A feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of a fusarotoxin-contaminated diet, explore counteracting potential calcium fructoborate (CFrB) additive on performance, typical health biochemistry parameters immune response in weaned pigs. naturally contaminated maize, containing low doses deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, fumonisins T-2/HT-2 toxins (1790, 20, 0·6 90 parts per billion),...

The 21 days feeding trial was conducted on 90, Cobb 500 broilers (aged 14 days), assigned to 3 groups (C, E1 and E2) housed in an experimental hall at 32° C constant temperature 23 h light regimen. During the growth period (14-35 conventional diet (C) had corn soybean meal as basic ingredients. Unlike formulation (C), formulations for also included 0.005% Artemisia annua oil (E1) plus 1% powder (E2). Six per group were slaughtered 35 of age order measure weight carcass internal organs...

The aim of the study was to characterize Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a strain, in order establish its probiotic utility piglet nutrition. strain assayed morphologically, culturally, biochemically, for hemolytic activity and enzymatically (amylase protease). identification analysis biochemical characteristics performed by catalase assay, API 50 CHB Biomerieux strips, apiweb V 4.0 soft (B. very good identification, 99.4% ID) ABIS online. on blood agar medium. growth evaluated two ways: static...

Weaning is associated with several stress factors and their effects on the piglet's body are fairly well known. Thus, changes were estimated in certain serum faecal parameters after weaning owing to dietary protein level, though essential amino acid (AA) levels maintained or reduced. Eighteen Topigs piglets assigned randomly three homogenous groups. The level was reduced by 10% diets 1 2 compared diet C. Diet had similar of AA C, while 10%. Blood samples collected jugular venipuncture...

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....

This article evaluated the effects of supplemental probiotic Bacillus subtilis (Bs) ATCC 6051a (1.6x109cfu/mL) in diets for weaned piglets on their performance and occurrence diarrhoea. Sixty piglets, 30 ±3 days old with initial bodyweight 8.41±0.92 kg, were allotted randomly to six pens ten piglets. There two replicates each treatment, namely a control diet (C), supplemented 1% Bs (E1), 3% (E2). Feed was provided ad libitum as flour meals per day. materials examined total numbers fungi,...

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of Artemisia (Artemisia annua) supplementation as essential oil and powder, in broiler diet on performance intestinal microflora. One hundred eighty Cobb 500 chicks assigned three experimental groups (six replicates with 10 broilers per replicate) were housed an environment-controlled house. Compared control diet, diets included 0.05 g kg-1 (E1), plus 0.1 powder (E2), respectively. Growth was monitored throughout days 14-42. (E1, E2) did not...

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...

This study aimed to evaluate some probiotic properties of Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a. The phenotypic profile, resistance pH by simulated gastric juice (pH 2 and 3), bile salts intestinal fluid, survivability (%), heat antibiotics tolerance were investigated. strain is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, arranged in short chains or small irregular pairs with the ability produce spores. Good viability at 3, survival more than ≥80%, was found. In presence 0.3%, over 4 h, exhibited ≥85%. At...

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...
