Explore studies on poultry diseases, broiler and layer production, vaccination, nutrition, gut health, biosecurity, antimicrobial resistance, and avian pathogens.
This study was designed to optimize and apply the use of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) as an alternative to conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the detection of herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) (FC 126 strain) in vaccinated and non-vaccinated poultry in …
Birds litter contains unutilized nitrogen in the form of uric acid that is converted into ammonia; a fact that does not only affect poultry performance but also has a negative effect on people�s health around the farm and contributes in the environmental degradation
Chicken astroviruses (CAstV) are known to cause mild gastroenteritis, growth depression, and even mortality in poultry, especially in chickens, turkeys, and ducks. To the best our knowledge, there is no published information on CAstV in Grenada
This study evaluated the effects of dietary and in ovo L-arginine supplementation on embryonic development, hatchability, embryonic mortality, growth performance, intestinal morphology, and muscle histomorphology in Alope Unhas 1 chickens.
This study aimed to produce and characterize recombinant IpaJ (rIpaJ) and preliminarily evaluate its diagnostic performance using field-derived chicken sera from Kazakhstan, compared with a commercial LPS-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
This study evaluated the effects of phytase and β-mannanase, alone and in combination, on growth performance, ileal digestible energy (IDE), and apparent ileal calcium (Ca) and P digestibility in broilers fed a P-deficient diet without supplemental inorganic P.
This study evaluated the efficacy of indigenous Lacticaseibacillus paracasei isolated from dadih on growth performance, carcass traits, hepatoprotection, and economic efficiency in broilers challenged with APEC and compared its effectiveness with that of a conventional AGP.
This study aimed to develop microencapsulated OEO and evaluate its effects on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality in broiler chickens.
This study evaluated the protective efficacy of concomitant day-old administration of two live-attenuated IBV vaccines (1/96 and H120 + PHY.LMV.42) against challenge with a Thai QX-like IBV strain in commercial broiler chickens.
This study evaluated the effects of a novel ternary emulsifier blend consisting of sorbitan esters, lysolecithin, and de-oiled lecithin applied through a phase-specific supplementation strategy on growth performance, nutrient utilization, and carcass characteristics of broilers …
This study investigated the prevalence, molecular characteristics, pathotype, phylogenetic relationships, and histopathological changes associated with NDV circulating in young ostrich flocks in Egypt.
This proof-of-concept study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of generating functional Hg-reactive immunoglobulin Y (IgY) antibodies in laying hens using Hg chloride (HgCl2)–protein conjugates, offering an avian alternative to mammalian antibody production for veterinary toxicol…
This study evaluated the effects of dietary inclusion of an H. illucens larvae and P. canaliculata (HI–PCL) meal blend supplemented with B. amyloliquefaciens on the performance, egg quality, and economic efficiency of laying Mojosari ducks.
This study aimed to identify age-specific environmental predictors of lameness in commercial Cobb 500 broilers raised under tropical closed-house conditions.
This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence and epidemiological patterns of DVH, AI, and ND in waterfowl populations in this high-risk transboundary interface.
This study aimed to characterize and compare the oral and cloacal microbiomes of adult and juvenile T. haematodus using full-length 16S rRNA sequencing to elucidate age- and site-specific microbial patterns.
This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms and consequences of genetic variation in chicken-infecting Eimeria species.
This study evaluated the dose-dependent effects of dietary microbial phytase supplementation on caecal microbiota, hepatic expression of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and growth hormone receptor (GHR), plasma immunoglobulin concentrations, and carcass characteristics in b…
his study aimed to quantify bacterial contamination levels and determine the prevalence and AMR profiles of E. coli and Salmonella species isolated from raw chicken meat and pork collected from slaughterhouses and retail outlets in Murang’a County, Kenya.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a combined mycotoxin-detoxifier containing bentonite and Trichosporon mycotoxinivorans in restoring humoral immune responses to AI vaccination and mitigating histopathological lesions in broilers exposed to AFB1 and OTA.
