Poultry nutrition - Other additives
Alternative feed additives have promising importance in broiler production due to the ban on the use of certain antibiotics. The most used antibiotic alternatives in broiler production are phytogenics, organic acids, prebiotics, probiotics, enzymes, and their derivatives. Antibiotic alternatives have been reported to increase feed intake, stimulate digestion, improve feed efficiency, increase growth performance, and reduce the incidence of diseases by modulating the intestinal microbiota and immune system, inhibiting pathogens, and improving intestinal integrity. Simply, the gut microbiota is the target to raise the health benefits and growth-promoting effects of feed additives on broilers. Therefore, naturally available feed additives are promising antibiotic alternatives for broilers.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of an Eastman monoglyceride blend on broiler performance under a 25-day necrotic enteritis challenge model in battery cages. A total of 320 one-day old male Cobb broilers were obtained from a local hatchery and randomly distributed into 4 groups with 10 chicks per cage and 8 replicates per treatment: (1) non-challenged control (NCC); (2) challenged control (CC); (3) challenged control + 500 mg/kg monoglyceride blend (low-dose); (4)...

Introduction: Betaine has been known as a functional nutrient widely used in animal nutrition during the last decade. It’s the trimethyl derivative of glycine, and is present in many plants and animal tissues such as aquatic invertebrates and sugar beets. As a feed additive, betaine is commonly used as anhydrous, monohydrate, and betaine hydrochloride. According to the latest research, the nutritional properties of betaine HCL is equal to anhydrous while offering...

There are several components of grain and plants that can cause detrimental effects on animal production. These components are commonly known as antinutritional factors. According to their mode of action, anti-nutritional factors can be grouped as follows: Substances that limit or decrease the digestion or metabolism of proteins, ex. lectins and saponins. Substances that interfere or decrease the correct utilization of minerals, ex. phytic acid and oxalic...

Every year the marketing age of broilers decreases by an average of 0.75 days for the same performance. This trend is likely to continue in the same direction for the coming years. Nutrition plays a vital role in enabling this improvement. As the feed cost represents an expensive input (~70-80% of broiler production cost), the poultry producer should be aware of the dynamics of the feed in its influence on final product quantity and quality. Formulating feed ideally requires in-depth...
