Journal ArticleDOI
Utilization of phytate phosphorus and calcium as influenced by microbial phytase, cholecalciferol, and the calcium: total phosphorus ratio in broiler diets
TL;DR: It is suggested that phytase, D3, and Ca:tP are important factors in degrading phytate and improvingphytate P and Ca utilization in broilers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Heat Stress Early in Life on Mortality of Broilers Exposed to High Environmental Temperatures Just Prior to Marketing
TL;DR: It appears, therefore, that exposing broiler cockerels to mild heat stress for 24 h at 5 days of age can significantly decrease mortality resulting from high environmental temperature later in life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leptin-induced decrease in food intake in chickens.
D. M. Denbow,S Meade,Adam B. Robertson,J. P. McMurtry,Mark P. Richards,Christopher M. Ashwell +5 more
TL;DR: It appears that leptin can act within the central nervous sytstem of birds to decrease food intake and water intake in both broilers and Leghorns in a dose-dependent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Microbial Phytase on Nitrogen and Amino Acid Digestibility and Nitrogen Retention of Turkey Poults Fed Corn-Soybean Meal Diets
TL;DR: The effect of microbial phytase on N and amino acid (AA) digestibility and N retention was investigated in a 29-d trial using 480 Nicholas Large White Turkey female poults fed corn-soybean meal diets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supplemental Microbial Phytase Improves Zinc Utilization in Broilers
TL;DR: Day-old male broilers were used in a 21-d trial to investigate the effect of microbial phytase on the retention and utilization of Zn and the results indicate that approximately 0.9 mg of ZN was released per 100 U ofphytase over the range of 150 to 600 U ofPhytase.
