  • Effects of amino acid levels on broiler breeders during rearing
INTRODUCTION Dietary amino acids (AA) and crude protein (CP) have been demonstrated to affect BW, body composition, organ development, and feathering in broiler breeder pullets (Hudson et al., 2000; Ekmay, 2011; van Emous et al., 2013). Breeder pullets are fed to achieve target BW, and meeting growth objectives during the rearing phase has been related to improvements in reproductive parameters such as fertility, hatchability, and embryo mortality (Leeson and Summers, 2000;...

  • A blend of botanicals protects cultured enterocytes from damages induced by an inflammatory challenge
Botanicals represent a wide class of complex compounds that naturally contain active principles with numerous biological functions. Among them, the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions are of key interest to support intestinal health during stressful phases. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of a thymol-based blend of botanicals (BOT) to protect intestinal Caco-2 cells from the damages induced by an inflammatory challenge in vitro. Caco-2 cells were differentiated on...

1. Introduction Nutrition plays a pivotal role in maintaining the health of pullets, quality egg production by laying hens and body growth of broilers (Wang et al. 2017). Nutraceuticals are the nutrients or constituents of animal diet that have nutritional and pharmaceutical importance by preventing various diseases, possessing immunomodulatory potential, providing health benefits and consequently increasing productivity (Dhama et al. 2015; Aronson 2017; Helal et al. 2019;...

INTRODUCTION Poultry needs protein for growth, egg production, immunity, enzymatic activity, tissue turnover, and much more (Beski et al., 2015). Similar to other essential amino acids ( AA ), supplemental branched-chain amino acids ( BCAA ) such as isoleucine and valine allow for a reduction in the crude protein ( CP ) in the diet, whereas leucine is generally found in higher amounts in the cornbased diet (NRC, 1994; Waldroup et al., 2002). A low CP diet...
