Effects of Fusaric Acid in Broiler Chicks and Turkey Poults
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of fusaric acid (FA) in broiler chicks (Exp. 1) and turkey poults (Exp. 2). In each experiment, 100 day-old birds were allotted randomly to dietary treatments containing 0, 100, 200, 300, or 400 mg FA/kg of feed. Each dietary treatment was fed to 4 pen replicates of 5 birds each for 21 days. Fusaric acid had no effect (P > 0.05) on feed int...
متن کاملThe zinc requirements of broiler chicks and turkey poults fed on purified diets.
Chicks and turkey poults were fed for 3 weeks on low-zinc diets, prepared from purified ingredients, supplemented with zinc oxide at graded levels. Birds of both species given the unsupplemented basal diets grew poorly, with high mortality rates. All had severe hyperkeratosis but bone development was normal. Only when birds received diets with low concentrations of added Zn were leg abnormaliti...
متن کاملHuman Metapneumovirus in Turkey Poults
This study was conducted to reexamine the hypothesis that human metapneumovirus (hMPV) will not infect turkeys. Six groups of 2-week-old turkeys (20 per group) were inoculated oculonasally with 1 of the following: noninfected cell suspension; hMPV genotype A1, A2, B1, or B2; or avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) subtype C. Poults inoculated with hMPV showed nasal discharge days 4-9 postexposure. Spec...
متن کاملHeat conditioning induces heat shock proteins in broiler chickens and turkey poults.
Peripheral leukocyte heat shock proteins (HSP: HSP90, HSP70, and HSP23) from broiler chickens and turkey poults were induced by in vitro and in vivo high temperature exposure. Heat conditioning, via a daily 1 h exposure to 41 C, enhanced in vitro HSP expression in leukocytes from chickens heat-conditioned for 1 to 2 wk, and a similar response was found in turkey poults with 3 wk of heat conditi...
متن کاملTurkey origin reovirus-induced immune dysfunction in specific pathogen free and commercial turkey poults.
Recently, pathogenesis studies, using genetically distinct turkey-origin reoviruses (TRVs), revealed that poults infected with certain TRV isolates had moderate to severe bursal atrophy, suggesting virus-induced immune dysfunction. In order to characterize the effect of TRV infection on the turkey immune system, classical assays were undertaken to quantify the humoral and cell-mediated immune r...
