Poultry gut health
The efficient conversion of feed into its basic components for optimal nutrient absorption is vital for both broiler and broiler breeder production and welfare. Gut health, an intricate and complex area combining nutrition, microbiology, immunology and physiology, has a key role to play. When gut health is compromised, digestion and nutrient absorption are affected which, in turn, can have a detrimental effect on feed conversion leading to economic loss and a greater susceptibility to disease. In addition, recent changes in legislation on the use of antimicrobials, differing feed requirements and more efficient birds highlight the need for a better understanding of gut function and gut health.

INTRODUCTION: The gastrointestinal tract, often referred to as "the gut," is a complex system consisting of several components, including the epithelium, the immune arm, and the commensal bacteria. This intricate structure plays a crucial role in the overall health and well-being of animals. Understanding the defense mechanisms of the gut is vital for maintaining optimal gastrointestinal function and preventing the invasion of harmful pathogens. (Kogut et al .,...

Copper (Cu) is a vital element involved in cellular metabolism and enzyme systems. At levels greater than nutritional requirements, dietary Cu addition enhances growth performance as a growth promoter (Pesti and Bakalii, 1996). Copper dosing at levels up to 250 mg/kg feed has been shown to improve intestinal structure and function, and alter the intestinal microbiota profile (Di Giancamillo et al., 2018). However, a high level of copper in the sulphate form (CuSO 4 ) which is...
