Published: May 20, 2014
By: Kim Jin Tae (Agranco)
Summary
  • For several years, AQUABLEND AVIAN has given a good protection against intestinal pathogens (Salmonella, E. coli, Clostridium etc.) and improvement in growth performances for poultry over the world.
  • AQUABLEND AVIAN can provide a natural and safe protection and more weight gain in poultry.
  • AQUABLEND AVIAN is applying during first 3 days.
  • AQUABLEND AVIAN can make birds exert their genetic potential through promoting intestinal healthy environment in the early of birds’ life.
  • AQUABLEND AVIAN can reduce Gumboro disease outbreak rate.

 

Introduction
  • To help customer’s understanding, we were gathering some recent commercial trials data from Korea.
  • In Korea, we have recommended to use AQUABLEND AVIAN during day 1-3 in drinking water or anytime at veterinarian’s discretion.
  • At present, we have many customers who are using AQUABLEND AVIAN in broilers, layers, ducks and breeders.
  • At 35-36 days old, AQUABLEND AVIAN-treated birds have shown around 150g more in body weight in comparison with non-treated birds. 
Feeding trial with Broiler integrator 1
  • Place: Halim’s commercial farm. 16 OCT 2008 – 14 NOV 2008.
  • Birds: Ross 64000 birds.
  • Trial design
- Control: 32,000 birds were fed with normal diets.
- Treatment: 32,000 birds were fed with normal diets + AQUABEND AVIAN (50g/10,000birds) from day1-day3

  • Place: Halim’s commercial farm. 23 SEP 2008 – 31 OCT 2008.
  • Birds: Cobb 39,000 birds.
  • Remarks; All groups were treated in the following program.
- Day4, 5, 6: antibiotics treatment at 0.2-0.3%

  • Trial design

Feeding trial in a commercial broiler farm
  • Place: private commercial farm. AUG, 2008.
  • Birds: Ross 49,000 birds.
  • Period: for 32 days trial
  • Remarks; All groups were treated in the following program.
- Day1, 2, 3: IBD vaccination by spray
- Day4, 5, 6: antibiotics treatment; enrofloxacin
- Day7, 8: multi-vit. and mineral supplements
- Day9: IBD vaccination
- Day10: multi-vit. and mineral supplements
- Day13: ND vaccination
- Day14, 15, 16: anticoccidial + antibiotics treatment
- Day22- 28: multi-vit. and mineral supplements
  • Trial design
- Control (House A): 20,000 birds were fed with normal diets + organic acids in drinking water + probiotics
- Treated (House B): 29,000 birds were fed with normal diets + AQUABEND AVIAN (50g/10,000birds) from day1-day3

Note;
According to final results, it seems there were no differences between groups. However, actually, there were significant increment in the body weight in AQUABLEND AVIAN treated group. So far, from the house of treated group, it has always shown poor growth performances in this poultry house compare to other house (control group). Farmer suspected certain existing diseases/pathogens could not be eliminated by any disinfectants. Most of birds from that house showed 1.35-1.4kg of body weight before at day 30. At the same period, 1.5kg of body weight in the house (B) was treated with AQUABLEND AVIAN was tremendous increment in comparison with previous records. 
Increasing of Body Weight

* In the same house (B), there were a significant increment in body weight.
* In addition, there was no Gumboro disease after treating AQB. But, it was happen frequently in this house before. It has been repeated in other trials. If there were serious & continuous Gumboro outbreak, AQB could reduce it’s frequency and intensity. 
Growth promoting effect of AQUABLEND AVIAN
  • Following data were collected from end-users in Korea market.
  • 50g/10,000 birds dosage during day1, 2, 3 was recommended.
  • Only 3 farms were used AQUABLEND AVIAN at day1 and 2. the graph will be showed in blue color.
  • At the beginning, those farms had conducted simple feeding trial compare to non-treated group.
  • All of farms had different rearing programs for vaccination, antibiotics, nutritional supplements etc. 
Differences in weight gain after treating AQUABLEND AVIAN: Simple feeding trials at farms.

Univ. Trial
  • Place: Iran, 2009
  • Purpose: Evaluation of Intestinal Microflora:
- Tow separated groups were selected including 20 broilers in each one.
- The first group was considered as a Control Group (not treated group).
- In second group, broilers received Aqua-Blend Avian product during 3 first days of cycle (based on recommended concentration by manufacturer) in their drinking water.
- Eight birds from each group were post-mortem examined and evaluated intestinal content to detect type and number of intestinal microflora at first day ( before the beginning of assay ) and days 3,7,14 and 21.

 Purpose: Evaluation of Production Performance
- One hundred of one day broilers were divided into 2 equal groups (each group consisting of 5 sub-groups including 10 birds), we considered first group as a Control Group. The second group received Aqua-Blend Avian product in its drinking water during 3 first days of cycle (based on recommended concentration by manufacturer).
- The indexes of production such as increasing of body weight, food intake, food conversion ratio (FCR) on days of 14,21,28 and 42 in addition to efficiency rate of production at the end of experiment (on day 42nd) were measured.

1.Can you explain only 3 days of treatment tremendous increment of body weight?
2.How aqua blend avian reduce Gumboro disease outbreak rate?
3.Can you explain the dose 50gm/10000 birds means 50gms on the basis of?
