In the first half of 2022, Life Rainbow mycotoxin analysis lab collected 161 feed samples of raw materials and feed mills in farms and analyzed. The survey provides essential information on the feed pollution situation of aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, and G2), zearalenone, fumonisins (B1, B2, and B3) and deoxynivalenol (DON) in Taiwan. All the samples were analyzed using ELISA mycotoxin analysis kit. Results: The results show that 88.8% of feed was contaminated with aflatoxins;...
Amino Acids Of M/S Priya Chemicals Obtained By Enzyme Hydrolysis
1. Consists of twenty amino acids.
2. All amino acids are in l form (natural form) & are absorbed quickly & easily by plants.
3. No cyclization of glutamine which is important for energy metabolism.
4. No destruction of aspargine which has active role in respiratory function.
5. Tryptophan which is starting material for...
I. INTRODUCTION Antibiotic stewardship and the judicious use of antibiotics as treatment for specific disease occurrences, rather than using sub-therapeutic doses for growth promotion, are well established concepts within the Australian poultry industry (Alfirevich, 2018). Intensive production systems however, are prone to increased stressors and large scale production does not always meet the individual needs of each bird. Optimising production performance within this...
I. INTRODUCTION To introduce myself, I am a veterinarian by profession, a poultry veterinarian by accident and I am a field veterinarian by choice. My role as a field veterinarian (along with other professionals and the management team) is to turn expensive feed into profitable meat as efficiently as possible. Thus, my focus on-farm is on bird health and flock management to achieve the best biological performance we can. But along with that brief is the ‘social...
Sara Orlowski (University of Arkansas) talks to Sam Shafer (PSA) about her research. She is studying several generations of broilers and has been working to select the desirable traits that contribute to a low water conversion ratio (LWCR), making the bird more water efficient. Let's Squawk About It is a monthly interview segment by the Poultry Science Association....
Chanelle Taylor (Cargill) talks to Sam Shafer (PSA) about Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and how it has severely impacted the poultry industry's birds, products, and the mental health of workers. Let's Squawk About It is a monthly interview segment by the Poultry Science Association....
Kevin Downs (Middle Tennessee State University) and Joseph Gulizia (Auburn University) talk with Sam Shafer (PSA) about the results of providing poultry with different colored feed and how that impacts the birds' feeding preferences. They also discuss what this study means for further research on this topic. This is a follow-up from a previous episode regarding the findings of this study....
INTRODUCTION Birds may be exposed to a variety of potential stressors during preslaughter. The adverse effects of these factors and their combinations may range from mild discomfort to death (Petracci et al., 2006). One such factor is feed withdrawal prior to transport to the slaughterhouse (Petracci et al., 2010). Feed is withdrawn from poultry prior to slaughter to reduce the potential of carcass contamination with crop and intestinal contents (Bilgili, 2002). However, when...
Introduction Several factors can influence animal production, which can be beneficial or harmful to each species. In addition to the ambience, nutrition and sanity, the genetic characteristics of the breeds/lineages also cause changes in the adaptation and performance of the animals (Azevedo, Fosse Filho, Pereira, Andrade, & Júnior, 2016). In the current market there are three genetic groups of poultry according to their ability to produce: heavy poultry, light laying...
There has been a lot of talk and discussions on the benefits of reducing or completely removing the use of antibiotics in livestock, particularly in poultry and swine, here in Asia and yet, so far, only a few countries have implemented regulations. As many antimicrobials are used in the livestock sector, studies have suggested that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) may be widely prevalent. Regulation on antimicrobial use is either weak or non-existent, complicated by sub-optimal enforcement and...
A new stage begins in terms of vaccinations against Salmonella. From May 2021, Primun Salmonella E can be applied in laying the first live vaccine against Salmonella Enteritidis that has been authorized for that period. In this way, we give the respite that the producer had been asking for for a long time. The productive cycles of laying hens are getting longer and the immunity that has been given through the vaccines applied only in the rearing period, did not cover the new...
INTRODUCTION Brazilian poultry industry is highly relevant for the country economy. In 2016 a total of 13 million tons of broiler meat was produced, and nearly 35% was exported. (ABPA, 2017). Broiler production is carried out in several variations of house design. However, most of the production in the integrated system is done in open-sided houses with lateral polypropylene curtains, and with solar orientation East-West. The inside cooling is a combination of natural and forced...
