This study was performed to investigate the effect of dietary aspirin (A) on some performance traits in broilers using a completely randomized design, 120 one-day-old male broiler chicks Ross 308, three levels (0, 50, and 100 mg/kg), 4 replicates, each including 10 chicks, during 42 days. The effects different aspirin, added basal diet, performance, carcass characteristics, digestive organs wer...

This study investigated the effectiveness of clove and cardamom alcoholic extracts as growth promoters on performance, carcass traits, some blood serum components, immunity parameters, intestinal microbial population morphology broiler chicks. To this purpose, a total 240 one-day-old chicks (Ross 308 strain) were distributed randomly into three groups in form completely randomized design. The e...

Ascites syndrome is indicating the abnormal accumulation of non-inflammatory fluid in abdominal space. Hypoxia is the most important cause of pulmonary hyper blood pressure in broiler poultry. The aim of this study is a comparative survey of ascites syndrome incidence rate in Ross, Arbor-Acrese and Cobb strains of broiler chickens. For this purpose, 150 broiler male chicks of Ross, Cobb, and Ar...

The objective of this research was to investigate the efficacy of dietary inclusion of probiotics Primalac® and Bactocell® and prebiotic Fermacto® on broiler’s performance and immune response, individually or in combination. A total of 540 one-d-old male Ross 308 broiler chicks were allocated into 6 experimental treatments with 6 replicates of 15 birds per replicate from 1 to 42 d of age. The b...

this experiment was conducted to study the effects of two kinds of sodium and calcium bentonite (nab and cab) on performance, blood biochemical parameters, carcass characteristics and tibia ash of broiler chickens. two hundred and sixty day old broilers of male ross 308 strain were allocated to 5 treatments with four replicatates and 13 broilers in each. the experiment was carried out in a comp...

this study was carried out to evaluate the effect of onion extract on growth performance, carcass characteristics and some blood metabolites in ross and cobb broiler chickens. one hundred sixty, 1-d-old broiler chickens (mean initial weight: 36.5 ± 1 g) of male sex (ross-308 and cobb) were randomly conducted as randomized complete design with 4 treatment and 4 replication. the experimental grou...

The present study aimed at evaluating the histo-morphological changes resulting from different fasting periods before the collection of tissue samples in different segments of the small intestine (duodenum, jejunum and ileum) of 7-d-old male chicks of a broiler and a layer strain. A completely randomized experimental design in in a 2x7 factorial arrangement, being two strains with different gro...

background: outbreak and spread of bacterial infections resulted in increasing use of antibiotics which subsequently leaded to bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics. objectives: to evaluate the effects of organic acids (selko-ph®), probiotic (primalac®) and echinacea purpurea (ep) alcoholic extract on the immune system of the broiler chickens, a completely randomized design experimen...

Abstract The study aimed to assess the effect of dietary inulin (1% inclusion) supplements on broiler chickens’ meat antioxidant compounds. experiment was carried out under heat-stress conditions, 60 Ross 308 chickens. took place in an experimental hall with digestibility pens and controlled humidity, ventilation light regime. Each treatment (2 groups, C E) replicated 6 times 5 chicks per repli...

this study was conducted to investigate the effect of ascites-related physiological and metabolic parameters in broiler chickens fed with different components of bentonite. two hundred and seven days old arian male chicks were allocated into five dietary treatment groups including 1) basal diet (control); 2) basal diet + 1% sulphated sodium bentonite (ssb); 3) basal diet + 1% non-processed sodi...
