Comparison of the Effects of Probiotic, Organic Acid and Medicinal Plant on Campylobacter jejuni Challenged Broiler Chickens
Campylobacter is known to be one of the most common causes of human intestinal disorders. Since poultry are known to be the main reservoirs for this pathogen, decreasing this bacterium in intestinal tract could be beneficial in reducing contamination of poultry products. The effects of probiotic (PrimaLac), medicinal plant (Sangrovit) and organic acid (Selko-pH) as broiler feed additives on cec...

The effect of medicinal plant (Sangrovit), probiotic (PrimaLac), and organic acid (Selko-pH) as feed additives, on fecal excretion of Campylobacter (cfu/g) on broilers were evaluated. Other measurements such as performance, immune response and serum lipids were determined. A total of 300 broilers (Cobb 500) were fed unsupplemented diet (negative and positive controls), feed containing probiotic...
