Effect of dietary supplementation of essential oil and organic acid alone or in combination in broilers

Published: April 27, 2020

Frances (Fenglan) Yan, I congratulate the team of researchers for their work, with the treatments and number of birds sufficient to evaluate the products in question. A single detail that caught my attention was the fact that no action of organic acids in modulating the immune system of birds has been proven. Therefore, how to justify the improvement observed in the FCR of birds with the use of OAB., If the results of the work did not prove, the recognized action of short chain organic acids in increasing IL 10., whose action is to decrease the proinflammatory cytokine production.

It is very difficult to mix either 15 g / 30 g essential oil blend per MT .

Thank you for your comment, Mangalmurti. The Novus essential oil blend product, NEXT ENHANCE® 150, is micro-encapsulated with a patented technology. Its physical properties, such as particle size, angle of repose, and compressibility, allow it to mix well at the low doses. To address concerns of some customers, we have a premix of this product that is 10X diluted with dosage increased 10X.
