This study examined the prebiotic effects of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) on intestinal characteristics, gut microbiota, cecal short-chain fatty acids, plasma calcium metabolism, and immune parameters laying hens. A total 1,080 White Lohmann hens (28 wk age) was assigned to 6 dietary treatments that included XOS at concentrations 0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, or 0.05% for 8 weeks. Each treatment had replicates with 10 cages (3 birds/cage). Blood, tissues, digesta samples were collected from...
1. A total of 720 1-d-old broilers were used in a 28 d experiment to determine the effects probiotic supplementation diets with different dietary nutrient densities.2. Birds randomly allotted one 4 treatments 2 × factorial arrangement (12 replicateswith 15 per replicate) two levels density [high (metabolisable energy (ME) 12.7 MJ/kg and crude protein (CP) 230.3 g/kg for 1–7 d; ME 13.2 CP 220.3 8–28 d) or low (ME 12.1 220.2 0–7 12.6 209.8 d)] 0 probiotics (1.0 1010 viable spores/g Bacillus...
The objective of the present study was to investigate effect dietary graded raw potato starch (RPS) levels on growth performance, plasma cytokines concentration, ileal barrier function, and cecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) concentration in meat ducks from 1 35 D age. This included 2 experiments. In experiment (Exp.) 1, sixteen 35-day-old were used evaluate AME RPS by orogastric administration. Results showed value is 2.76 kcal/g. Exp. 2, a total 600 one-day-old ducklings randomly...
The objective of this experiment was to determine the effects dietary fiber levels on growth performance, gizzard development, intestinal morphology, and nutrient utilization in Cherry Valley meat ducks. In total, 720 1-day-old ducklings were fed with starter diets (120 ducklings, 8 pens 15 each diet) containing 6 crude (CF, 1.46, 3.09, 4.15, 6.18, 7.52, 9.03%, based analysis) for 21 d. Then, d 22, ducks all transferred a grower diet (containing 4% CF) examine residual effect until 35 Body...
The objective of the study was to investigate effects deficiency or high level addition methionine (Met) in diet on homocysteine (Hcy) metabolism and hepatic lipid broiler. A completely random design used with 3 dietary treatments Met from DL-methionine (DLM) at 0%, 0.22%, 0.32% a basal diet. analyzed 0.271%, 0.485%, 0.584% respectively for Met-deficient, sufficient, excessive total 360 one-day-old male Ross 308 broiler chicks were randomly assigned treatments. trial last 21 d. Compared...
The objective of this current study was to characterize the basic physiological data on morphological and mineralized properties tibia from 1 56 days, as well interrelationships body weight (BW) bone traits for meat ducks. A total 176 1-d-old ducks allocated into eight pens fed with same diet until age d. Eight birds (1 ducks/pen) were randomly selected weekly measuring BW characteristics. duck increased throughout whole study. Tibial length width rapidly grew 35 d, when it leveled off....
Three experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of maternal dietary canthaxanthin (CX) and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-D3) supplementation on antioxidant status calcium-phosphate metabolism progeny ducks. Cherry Valley duck breeders (38 wk old) fed either a control diet or same plus CX (6 mg/kg) 25-OH-D3 (0.069 for 32 weeks. Experiments 1, 2, 3 with ducks hatched from eggs laid by breeder hens at 54, 62, 70 age, respectively. Progeny both treatments NRC (1994) vitamin...
The sternum as an important part of the skeleton and not only provides a crucial attachment site for pectoral muscles protects internal organs such heart lungs meat duck, but may also be considered primary ventilator in avian respiratory system. Therefore, this study focuses on growth mineralization kinetics ducks from 35 d to 63 age. A total 72 one-d-old males females were chosen fed with same diet until age 9 weeks. serum harvested at d, 42 49 56d, feeding. Results showed that width...
This study investigated the effect of different specific surface area micronized zinc oxide (ZnO) on growth performance, (Zn) tissue content, jejunal morphology, antioxidative status, and intestinal mucosa barrier-related gene expression in meat ducks. A total 480 one-day-old Cherry Valley ducks were randomly divided into 4 dietary treatments, which each had 12 replicates; therefore, replicate consisted 10 Experimental diets included basal diet supplemented with ZnSO4 (control group) 3...
This study aimed to investigate the effect of a high-fat diet on growth performance, serum, liver, and skin lipid metabolism as well fatty acids composition liver fat in Pekin ducks from 10 40 d age based pair-fed group. Two hundred forty healthy male (10 old, 470.53 ± 0.57 g) were randomly divided into 3 groups (8 replicates per cage ducks): normal (ND, 3% fat), (HFD, 9% (PFD, given ND an amount equal that consumed HFD eliminate effects feed intake). The results follows: compared feeding,...
