This experiment was undertaken to evaluate the effect of dietary level of artichoke (Cynara scolymus) on growth performance and immune response of broilers under heat stress (HS). Two hundred forty day-old broiler chicks (Ross, 308) were randomly assigned to one of four dietary treatments with four replicate pens per treatment (15 birds per pen) in a completely randomized design with a 2 × 4 fa...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of camphor levels on performance, organ weight, testosterone and thyroid hormones, intestinal selective bacteria, and meat peroxidation of japanese quail. two-hundred 1-d chicks were allocated in 20 cages with five treatments and four replicates (10 chicks per each cage) using complete randomized block design. treatments were including: 0, 62.5, 1...

400 one day-old broiler chicks were allocated on a randomized complete design experiment with five treatments consisting of four replications for 42 days. experiment treatments were included: 1 . based diet consist 20 percent barley (barley control), 2 . barley control + 0.1 percent of mixed essential oil (antibiofin), 3 . barley control + 0.2 percent organic acid, 4 . barley control + 15 ppm o...

this study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant property of chavir plant on japanese quail intoxicated with carbon tetrachloride (ccl4). eighty, one-d-old japanese quail chicks were randomly allotted to 4 treatments with 4 replicates and 5 chicks in each, using completely randomized design with 2×2 factorial arrangements including 2 levels of chavir powder (0 and 1.5 percent) and ccl4 (0 and 1 ml/...

to study the possible use of phytase and yeast (saccharomyces cervisiae) in corn-soy bean meal base diet with different levels of available phosphorous in arbor acers broiler chicks, an experiment was conducted with 264 day old chicks of an average weight of 44.6 grams each. a completely randomized design of 6 treatments and 4 replications (11 chicks per replicate) for periods of starter, growe...

an experiment was conducted to reevaluate the digestible lysine requirement of arian male broilers by comparing the performance of chicks fed different levels of cottonseed meal (csm) on a total amino acid (aa) versus a digestible aa basis. four hundred and thirty two (432) arian male broiler chicks were allotted to 18 treatments with four repli-cates of six chicks each in a completely randomiz...

effect of globacid® acidifier in different stocking densities on performance and blood metabolites was examined using 576 one-day broiler chickens ross 308 in a completely randomized design with 6 treatments and four replications for each treatment through a (3 × 2) factorial arrangement with three levels of stocking densities (14, 16 and 18 chicks per square meter) and two levels of globacid® ...
