Abstract
Since the ban of using antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in livestock in several countries, probiotics have been considered as possible alternative. Spore forming bacteria that belong to Bacillus species are one of those probiotics selected for their ability to resist adverse environmental and nutritional conditions such as, low pH in the stomach and high temperature of the feed manufac ...

Abstract
An experimental direct-fed microbial (DFM) was evaluated in a dose- response trial to determine broiler live performance to 42 d with Coccivac® B at placement (d 0), used litter on d 4, and toxin-producing Clostridium perfringens (Cp) challenges on d 17-18 (by oral gavage and via water trough daily). There were 8 dietary treatment groups with 10 replicate pens of 30 chicks each per t ...

Abstract
Necrotic enteritis (NE) caused by Clostridium perfringens (CP) is a devasting bacterial disease responsible for economic losses, by increasing mortality because of damage to the broiler small intestine. Since ban of antibiotics use as growth promoters (AGPs) in some markets like in Europe and no antibiotic ever programs (NAE) in U.S., economic losses have become more prevalent. To preven ...

Safmannan is a premium yeast fraction coming from a proprietary saccharomyces cerevisiae bakery strain. Its unique manufacturing process guarantees more than 20% mannan-oligosaccharides and more than 20% ß-glucans. This batch to batch consistency leads a consistent effect.

It must be kept in mind that YCW solutions like Safmannan, will have a much broader and more efficacious effect. Safmannan is able to bind pathogenic bacteria and will thus control the growth of opportunistic bacteria. Additionally, it will assist in the preservation of the tight junction integrity and in that way control bacterial translocation and gut inflammation. The control of gut inflam ...

Dear,
For heat stress mannans will be more adequate then B-glucans
B-glucans have an anti-inflammatory effect and will help to preserve tight junctions. However, mannans seem to have a broader effect as they help to maintain gut integrity and are able to bind different types of pathogenic bacteria. As such, translocation of bacterial fragments will be reduced and the immune system will be less ...

Heat stress pathophysiology
As birds are homeothermic animals, they are able to maintain a relatively constant body temperature by balancing the production and dissipation of heat within their body. The maintenance of a constant body temperature is regulated by thyroid hormones of which the concentration is regulated by the hypothalamus – pituitary – thyroid axis (HPT) of the neuroe ...
