Chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis in broilers: further defining lameness-inducing models with wire or litter flooring to evaluate protection with organic trace minerals

A wire-flooring model for inducing lameness in broilers: evaluation of probiotics as a prophylactic treatment.

Bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) is the most common cause of lameness in commercial broilers. Bacteria entering the blood via translocation from the respiratory system or gastrointestinal tract spread hematogenously to the proximal epiphyseal-physeal cartilage of rapidly growing femora and tibiae, causing BCO. We tested the hypothesis that rearing broilers on wire flooring sho...

Effect of trace minerals on the development of bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis in poultry

Bacterial Chondronecrosis with Osteomyelitis (BCO) is one of the most common forms of lameness in poultry. It is associated with opportunistic bacterial infections in the proximal long bones and gut barrier failure. Chelated trace minerals have been shown to improve bone strength and gut health, therefore we hypothesize that MINTREX, the chelated trace minerals, can improve bone structural inte...

Molecular Survey of Bacterial Communities Associated with Bacterial Chondronecrosis with Osteomyelitis (BCO) in Broilers

Bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO) is recognized as an important cause of lameness in commercial broiler chickens (meat-type chickens). Relatively little is known about the microbial communities associated with BCO. This study was conducted to increase our understanding of the microbial factors associated with BCO using a culture-independent approach. Using Illumina sequencing o...
