two hundred eighty days old male broiler chicks(ross strain) were randomly distributed into seven groups with four replicates (10 birds in each replicate) and were fed diets supplemented with different dietary fat sources.the results indicated that the different dietary treatments did not affect weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio at 21 d (p>0.05). however, addition of dietary fa...

in this study the effect of diet dilution in 16-20 d of age and using a multi-enzyme (endofeed-w) on performance, carcass characteristics and some blood parameters of broiler chickens (cobb 500, commercial strain) was studied. this experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement 2×3 in a completely randomized design with 3 replicates and 8 chicks in each replicate. experimental diets contai...

Commercial broiler males were used to evaluate body temperature response to heat stress and its relationship to gain, feed consumption, and feed conversion ratio. Individual gain, feed consumption, and feed conversion ratio were obtained from 28 to 49 d in a heat stress environment (32 C) and compared to a 21 C environment. Body temperatures were measured at 28, 35, and 42 d, then daily from 43...

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)]...

in order to investigate the effect of partial replacement of barley starch with beet pulp soluble fiber with or without roasted canola seed on apparent nutrient digestibility, dry matter intake, daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio and rumenal ph 24 arabian male lambs were used for 84 days in a completely randomized design with a 2×2 factorial arrangement. treatments had no significant effe...
