This is the new trend in poultry nutrition and its a good data to overcome the the increasing mortality and to enhance the egg production, but you added 2 levels in water while, i find only one level (0.2ml/ bird) in 2 ages (24 w and 18 days later) and its need clarification and which level led to these results. Many Thanks

Dr Manal Kamal Hi, I believe just a small confusion surrounding the word dose in the following sentence: “treated with 2 doses of the biopromoter (0.2ml/bird) in the drinking water at week 24 and 18 days later”. Doses in this context refers to the biopromotor was given twice (so times administered) and not levels or amount given; as the amount or level administered is always 0.2ml.

Amirthalingam Natarajan Hello. The biopromoter was given twice at week 24 of life and 18 days later at a calculated dose of 0.2ml/chicken added to the drinking water. It normally takes about 4-6 hours for the chickens to consume all the product added.

Hi Interesting work. What interested me most is the process of making the inactivated Bacillus subtilis fragments. What type of microorganisms that were involved in the fermentation and do you have any idea of sizes of cell wall fragments.

Christopher Hettiarachchi Hi. The only microorganism involved was a specifically selected strain of Bacillus subtilis. Unfortunately, I do not have any information of the size of the yeast cell wall fragments. All the information available on the products can be found at www.bvscience.com or www.vetanco.com.

Great thanks to Carlos De Oliveira, Justino Hernandez and Sherry Layton for this interesting presentation. I observed from the presentation, that the farm in question had a historical challenge of colibacillosis, diarrhea and reduced egg production. But with the introduction of a bio-promoter and yeast cell wall [ MOS] in a treated pen, there was a general improvement in health status of the birds and egg production, with reduced mortalities. Now my suggestion is this, while I was a poultry manager years back here in Badagry, Nigeria, we observed the same challenge, we checked the feed ingredients, which were not constant. We checked the water, which was a constant and observed bacterial contamination from water lines and water holding tanks. Flushing and cleaning with appropriate medicament were done with great success. I suggest and advise that poultry caretakers should constantly check water source in order to avert constant enteric challenges.
