Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a common pathogenic microorganism and poses threat to the efficiency of poultry farms. As signaling molecules regulating interaction between host gut microbiota, bile acids (BAs) play protective role in maintaining homeostasis. However, antibacterial effect BAs on infection broilers has remained unexplored. Therefore, aim this study was investigate potential feeding protecting against S. broilers.
