This study was conducted to compare the effects of diets Borage Powder and control (no additives diets) on broiler’s average blood cell counts and immune system on the broiler chicks. Sixty four male broiler chicks (Ross 308) randomly allocated into one of two treatments with four replicates of eight chickens based on a completely randomized block design.  Diets were include control (no additiv...

This study was designed to investigate the effects of different levels of Tarragon powder on general performance and Anetometric, properties of digestive system of male broiler chickens. 200 one-day-old Ross 308 male broiler chickens in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 5 replicates per treatment and 10 birds in each replicate were used. Experimental diets were set...

OBJECTIVES This study investigated the prevalence of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in the broiler production environment after the avoparcin ban and their epidemiological relationship with human clinical VRE from the same geographical regions in Greece. METHODS Caecal contents from broilers (n = 500) from eight livestock farms and faecal samples from poultry slaughterers (n = 50), al...

to evaluate the efficiency of nanocid as growth promoter in comparison antibiotics and with organic acids on performance and intestinal morphometric characteristics of broiler chickens, 240 male broiler chicks of one dayage (ross 308) were utilized in an experiment of a completely randomized design of 4 treatments and 4 replicates. the experimental treatments included: 1) control (no additives)...

this experiment was performed to investigate the effects of propolis and chromium picolinate on performance and immune response of broiler chicken under heat stress conditions. treatments included different levels of propolis (500, 1000, and 1500 mg/kg) and chromium picolinate (1500 µg/ kg) along with a control group. a completely randomized design was taken into account with 4 replicates of 10...
