Introduction With the rise of antimicrobial resistance and the more frequent identification of multidrug resistance strains, as well as a lack of research into the development of new antimicrobial agents, scientists are increasingly interested in tests of active substances derived from plants due to their ease of availability, safety, and cost effectiveness (Albert, 2021). The use of medicinal plants in animal nutrition has increased due to their positive properties such as...

Introduction Using antibiotics in sub therapeutic dosages was for a long time a general tool for the control of diseases, however, their misuse in animal husbandry has contributed to the development of multiple resistance of pathogens, deposit of drug residues in edible animal product and the environment, and the potential transfer of antibiotic resistance to human pathogens has directed research towards alternative solutions such as the use of medicinal or herbal plants...

1. Introduction Both L-glutamate (Glu) and L-glutamine (Gln) are abundant amino acids (AAs) in plant, microbial, and animal proteins [1]. In the whole bodies of sheep and cattle, Glu and Gln are the third and eighth most abundant AAs, respectively. For comparison, the total content of these two AAs, along with other AAs, in feeds [e.g., Bermuda grass, distillers dried grains, and solubles (DDGS)], ruminal microbes, and skeletal muscle proteins is also relatively high, as summarized...

1 Introduction The emergence of multi-resistant bacteria (MDR) to antibiotics represents one of the principal global threats to public health (Murray et al., 2022). The clinicians have been considered the use of the last therapeutics options, such as vancomycin, polymyxin B, carbapenems and colistin, with low rates of success (Wang et al., 2022; Yao et al., 2023). The infections by MDR are currently associated with considerable increase in morbidity and mortality of intensive...

1. Introduction Recently, the interest in “green food products” based on natural compounds and minimal processing of edible products [1,2] has gained attention in determining products’ acceptance [3]. These characteristics are crucial factors that reflect the current trends and economic growth in this sector [4], which is estimated to exceed USD 13 billion by 2024, according to reports from Global Market Insights, Inc. (Selbyville, DE, USA) [5]. From this point...

INTRODUCTION Campylobacter jejuni (CJ) is a Gram-negative commensal pathogen prevalent in the intestinal tract of chickens and other animals. Human infection is characterized by inflammatory bowel response, followed by bloody diarrhea and painful symptoms to the affected people and pets. In addition, Guillain-Barre syndrome can be a secondary sequelae, characterized by a potential fatal autoimmune disorder in humans (Crofts et al., 2018). Moreover, CJ multidrug resistance to...

1. Introduction Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the main global threats today, and recent reports estimate that it directly caused 1.27 million deaths in 2019 [1]. In Brazil, the National Health Surveillance Agency, through the Evaluation of National Indicators of Health Care-Related Infections (HAIs) and Microbial Resistance (MR), in the year 2021, estimated that Escherichia coli resistance to different classes of beta-lactams can reach rates of 47.5% to cephalosporins,...

Introduction Supplemental lipids are commonly included in diets for ruminants (Doreau and Ferlay 1994). These lipids are components of feedstuffs or through the addition of specific lipid additives (Loften et al. 2014). Most commonly, these lipid additives are used to increase the energy density of the diet (Hess et al. 2008), but can also be used to modulate the fatty acid (FA) composition of body tissues or induce metabolic changes. Verdugo (2016)...

Introduction: Antibiotics such as tetracyclines have been extensively used in swine production in the last decades. As a consequence, levels of antibiotic resistant bacteria in livestock have increased, which is discussed as major risk for public health. Thus, alternatives to antibiotics are urgently needed to reduce the amounts of antibiotics used in food producing animals. Natural feed additives, such as acids, phytogenics or pre/probiotics, are known to have a positive...

I. INTRODUCTION Poultry meat is the second-largest meat source with excellent quality of proteins and essential micronutrients for human nutrition globally (Pawar et al., 2016). However, the pursuit of increased meat yield, lean mass ratio and large breast muscle has had significant impacts on meat quality in broilers. Moreover, in modern commercial broiler rearing systems, high stocking density and various stress factors also inevitably lead to impaired growth performance and meat...

Tri-butyrin is regarded as an ideal molecule to supply both butyrate and mono-butyrin to the small intestine (SI) to maintain intestinal function, modulate the immune response and improve broiler growth performance (Moquet et al., 2016; Moquet et al., 2018). Valerins have been shown to positively affect the morphology of the SI mucosa and reduce the incidence of necrotic enteritis (Onrust et al., 2018). To date, little information is available as to the extent to which valerin and butyrin in...
