coccidiosis is one of the most important disease in poultry. since using of anti-coccidial drugs or vaccination are considered as the most common preventive measures of this disease, an experiment was conducted to compare effectiveness of these methods. nine hundred and sixty day-old male ross broiler chicks were randomly assigned to eight treatments and fed with a corn-soybean meal basal diet ...

The hypothesis tested was that the feeding of mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) will suppress the signs of a coccidiosis infection in broilers. Two separate experiments were performed in which part of the broilers used were infected with Eimeria tenella. In each experiment there were three treatment groups: a negative control group fed the basal diet and two infected groups fed the basal diet withou...

abstract: in order to study the effect of concomitant use of a probiotic with lactobacillus origin (primalac) and a coccidiosis vaccine (paracox-5) in experimental coccidial infection of broilers, 600 day old male broiler chickens were randomly divided into five groups of 120 with four replicates. groups three, four and five received probiotic , coccidiosis vaccine and probiotic + coccidiosis v...

A series of experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of starter diet protein levels on the performance of broilers vaccinated with a commercially available live oocyst coccidiosis vaccine before subsequent challenge with a mixed-species Eimeria challenge. Data indicated that an increasing protein concentration in the starter diet improved broiler performance during coccidiosis vacci...

Background: Coccidiosis is recognized as the parasitic disease that has the greatest economic impact on poultry production. Modern poultry production is largely dependent upon anticoccidials. Objectives: The aim of the present study was to determine and compare the efficacy of two chemical anticoccidials (Clopidol and Diclazuril) on oocyst shedding and their probable effects on growth performan...

BACKGROUND The present study was intended to determine the prevalence and identification of species involved causing coccidiosis in broilers rearing under traditional farming system in Mirpur, Azad Kashmir, Pakistan. For the current study, a convenient sampling technique was carried out. A total of 7814 broilers (aged 1 to 6 weeks) were submitted to the Disease Diagnostic Laboratory of Livestoc...

Introduction Coccidiosis is one of the most important diseases of poultry caused by protozoa, Eimeria and is generally characterized by bloody diarrhea, the primary symptom and high mortality. The bloody diarrhea is mainly due to intestinal epithelium dying off since a large number of oocysts and merozoites burst out of the cells. The disease spreads from one bird to another by contact with inf...

Due to an increasing demand for natural products to control coccidiosis in broilers, we investigated the effects of supplementing a combination of ethanolic extracts of Artemisia annua and Curcuma longa in drinking water. Three different dosages of this herbal mixture were compared with a negative control (uninfected), a positive control (infected and untreated), chemical coccidiostats (nicarba...

Eimeria tenella is one of the important species as it causes caecal coccidiosis in chickens. Coccidiosis is believed to be controlled effectively using vaccines. The present study investigated the prophylactic efficacy of two locally prepared vaccines against caecal coccidiosis in broiler chicken. Broiler chicks (n = 80) were divided in four different groups A, B, C and D (n = 20 birds/group), ...
