Introduction Recently, higher dietary arginine (Arg) levels than the recommended values in nutritional tables have been reported (Murakami et al. 2012; Xu et al., 2018; Zampiga et al.,2018; Oliveira et al., 2022). This suggests that Arg levels needed for maximum performance are increased in modern broilers. The high dietary Arg levels found in the literature may be associated with the critical roles played by Arg in animal metabolism. Besides enhancing protein synthesis via...

1. Introduction Gut microbiota, represented by bacteria, archaea, viruses, and eukaryotes, take part in regulating several functions in both humans and animals [1]. It has been estimated that the chicken gut can be colonized by at least 1000 different microbial strains that are involved in maintaining the intestinal health of hens while sustaining productivity and growth [2,3]. This microbiota takes part in various metabolic pathways related to nutrient digestion and absorption,...

What many nutritionists do in LCF, is to create 2 nutrients for calcium. One might simply have the name calcium and would include the total amount of calcium in the ingredients plus the value assigned in the phytase matrix. To this nutrient it would be assigned the min and max restrictions and it would be used to calculate the Ca.avP ratio (which could receive the restrictions instead of calcium). The other nutrient is usually called something like analyzable calcium (or calcium lab) and would...

It is well known that the higher the static pressure, the faster the air will enter through an air inlet and therefore the greater the amount of air which will enter through the inlet. But how precisely does velocity change with pressure and similarly how does the amount of air entering through an inlet change with static pressure? To answer these questions, the performance of typical 44" X 7" (42.75" X 5.75" actual opening) and 44" X 14" (42" X 10.75" actual opening) galvanized door inlets...

In a negative pressure-ventilated poultry house, the amount of air entering through each side wall inlet depends primarily on the level of negative pressure generated by the house exhaust fans, the size of the inlet opening, and the air inlet design. The higher the static pressure, the faster the air will enter the house and...
