effect of l-carnitine and butyric acid on the performance and immune responses of 192 broiler chickens (ross 308) was investigated with three levels of l-carnitine (zero, 125 and 250 mg/kg) and two levels of butyric acid (2 g/kg) in a 2×3 factorial arrangement based on randomized complete block design with 6 dietary treatments, four replicates and eight birds per each. broilers fed basal diet p...

the present study examined the antioxidant defense of glutamine on plasma and liver antioxidant status in broilers under phs with respect to changes in the levels of lipid peroxidation marker malondialdehyde (mda), total antioxidant status (tas) and the activities of anti peroxidative enzymes [superoxide dismutase (sod) and glutathione dependent antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase (gpx)]...

a crd experiment was conducted to study three different soybean meals on experimental qualitative properties, digestibility of protein and performance in broiler chickens for a 42 day period. a total of 195 day-old ross 308 male broiler chickens were randomly distributed to 3 dietary treatments with five replicates of 13 chicks each. to measure digestibility of protein, thirty 15-day-old ross 3...

the effects of different levels (0, 10, 20 and 30 percentage of dry matter) of apple pomace ensiled with urea were investigated on 24 ghezel male lambs in a completely randomized design with four treatments and six replicates. the average starting weight and age of the lambs were 31.27 ± 7.40 and 187 ± 37 days, respectively. after 15 days of adaptation, the lambs were individually fed with expe...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of feed restriction (fr) and meal feeding (mf) on performance, carcass characteristics and related parameters to ascites in ross 308 male broiler chickens. five dietary treatments were 1) the control (ad libo. feeding), 2 )feed restriction from 7 to 14 days (fr14), 3) feed restriction from 7 to 21 days (fr21), 4) meal feeding from 7 to 14 days ...

The poultry market has changed due to a higher consumer interest on products with differentiated organoleptic characteristics, making of free-range broiler production a promising activity. This experiment was conducted to determine the digestible lysine requirements of Redbro Cou Nu male and female chickens during the starter phase (one to 21 days of age). Six hundred and thirty Redbro Cou Nu b...
