a 3 × 2 factorial experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of thymol + carvacrol (0, 100 and 200 mg/kg) on ileal microbial population and jejuna and ileal histomorphology of broilers fed carboxy methyl cellulose (cmc: 0 and 2%) containing diet. each of the 6 dietary treatments was replicated 5 times with 12 chicks each from 0 to 42 days of age. there was no interaction effect of cmc a...

Phytase is well studied and explored, however, little is known about its effects on the microbial ecology of the gastrointestinal tract. In total, 400 one-day-old female Ross 308 chicks were randomly distributed to four experimental groups. The dietary treatments were arranged as a 2 × 2 complete factorial design, with the factors being adequate (PC) or insufficient calcium (Ca) and digestible ...

an experiment was conducted to study the effects of enzyme and phytogenic product (thymol+carvacrol) on the ileal microbial population and jejuna and ileal histomorphology of broilers fed wheat based diet. the experiment was conducted as a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement with 2 levels of enzyme endofeed w (0 and 0.05%) and 3 levels of next enhance 150® (0, 100 and 200 mg/kg). each of the 6 dietary ...

Purified non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) affect intestinal nutrient flow and hence microbial fermentation in pigs. Therefore, we investigated the effect of NSP differing in viscosity and fermentability on colonic fermentation and bacterial populations in eight ileal-cannulated barrows (BW 30 kg) fed a cornstarch-casein based diet supplemented with 5% low fermentable , low viscous cel lulose (C...

The goal of this study was to examine whether supplemental fructooligosaccharides (FOS) plus mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) influenced immune function and ileal and fecal microbial populations of adult dogs. Eight adult dogs surgically fitted with ileal cannulas were used in a crossover design. Dogs were fed 200 g of a dry, extruded, kibble diet twice daily. At each feeding, dogs were dosed with ...

the effects of selko-ph (s; 1 ml/l drinking water); termin-8 (t; 2 kg/ton feed) and neogermicin (n; 2 l/ton feed) on gastrointestinal tract (git) ph, microbial population, ileal digestibility and broiler performance were investigated. the lowest feed intake (fi) was attained by chickens fed diets supplemented with s group in all periods (p

Contents of the terminal ilea, ceca-proximal colons, and terminal recta were obtained from nine sheep, three of which were fed 100% orchardgrass hay, three of which were fed 60% cracked corn-40% orchardgrass hay, and three of which were fed 80% cracked corn-20% orchardgrass hay. The digestibility of dry matter in the ceca was greatest when the all-hay diet was fed, whereas the percentage of cel...

The effects of Selko-pH (S; 1 mL/L drinking water); Termin-8 (T; 2 kg/ton feed) and Neogermicin (N; 2 L/ton feed) on gastrointestinal tract (GIT) pH, microbial population, ileal digestibility and broiler performance were investigated. The lowest feed intake (FI) was attained by chickens fed diets supplemented with S group in all periods (P

The effect of a dietary microbial phytase on mineral digestibility throughout the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of the growing pig was studied. Thirty-two entire male pigs (~22 kg BW) were allocated equally to 4 corn-soybean meal diets. One diet was adequate in total P and Ca, the second diet was deficient in total P and Ca (low-P diet), and the third and fourth diets were the low-P diet with mi...
