Megan Koppen (Cargill) Yucca schidgera (steroidal) and Quillaja saponaria (triterpenoid) are two saponins available for commercial feed use in the poultry industry. Though their targeted effects tend to overlap, notable differences in their chemical make-up, structural complexity and mechanistic action exist. While saponins are known to reduce ammonia emissions in livestock, direct saponin source comparisons are scarcely found in literature. The...

Héctor Leyva-Jiménez (United Animal Health) Broiler chickens from commercial rearing facilities are subjected to a variety of stressors that increase disease susceptibility and reduce growth. Direct-fed microbials (DFM) can be employed to introduce beneficial bacteria to the digestive tract of poultry and through diverse mechanisms boost performance. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of supplementing broiler diets...

Looking back to the year 2023, the overall API market collapsed. The scarring effect left by the pandemic is hard to fade away completely; the global economy is facing downward pressure, the domestic livestock industry is in a downturn, and the prices of veterinary APIs continue to bottom out, hitting record lows. As the China Veterinary Medicine and Feed Trading Centre (CVMFTC) monitored, the VPi index for four weeks in January was 63.95, 63.41, 63.30 and 63.23. respectively....

Julián Melo (Universidad Nacional de Luján / Dietaxion) In a context of rising prices of feed ingredients, the improvement of the overall feed digestibility and maximum utilization of nutrients in the feedstuffs should be a priority. Previous studies have shown the benefit of a double-buffered sodium butyrate (DBSB) on the performance and intestinal health of broilers fed low energy and protein diets (LEP). The aim of the study was to...

Jodi Delago (Arm & Hammer) Hatchability rates in the US broiler industry have been declining since 2014. The average weekly hatchability rate in the US in 2023 has been approximately 80.7%, a decrease of more than 4% since 2014. Published studies of nonviable embryos in Canada indicated that Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli are frequently recovered from nonviable embryos and that infection by one or both bacteria may be contributing to...

Amine Benarbia (NOR-FEED) Eimeria spp. completes its life cycle within the host’s gastrointestinal tract. its reproduction has been known to damage enterocytes, leading to decreased growth performance and welfare in chickens. Controlling the reproduction cycle and limiting oocyst excretion could explain the observed efficacy of steroidal saponin-based standardized premixture -Norponin XO- (NPXO) supplementation in chicken. The objective of this...

Kalen Cookson (Zoetis) Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infections within the first 2 weeks of age cause significant immune suppression while infections after 3 weeks are less severe and more transient. The purpose of this study was to see if a 3-week IBDV challenge could significantly reduce immunity against an infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) challenge given 4 days later. Study Design: Ross 708 broilers with high maternal antibodies to IBDV...
