TLDR
Replacing increments of sucrose in a sucrose-fish meal ration with ground corn caused a linear decrease in zinc toxicity, and similar dietary effects were not found for toxic levels of selenium, fluorine or molybdenum.

Influence of diet on the hematology and serum biochemistry of zinc-intoxicated mallards.

TL;DR: In this article, changes in hematological and serum biochemistry parameters in female zinc (Zn)-dosed farm-raised mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) fed four different diets were examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tolerance for excess basic zinc chloride and basic copper chloride in chicks.

TL;DR: Four chick experiments were conducted to determine toxicity estimates for basic zinc chloride (BZC) and basic copper chloride (BCC), now being used as sources for these minerals, suggesting that the crossbred and commercial chicks responded differently to high concentrations of supplementary dietary Cu.

Effect of Dietary Krill Meal on the Performance of Broiler Chicks During the Acute Phase Response

TL;DR: Dietary krill meal affected the performance and SOD activity of broilers chicks during the acute phase response and increased the relative weight of liver and spleen, and dietary krill Meal enhanced the activities of MnSOD and Cu/ZnSOD in liver and erythrocyte cytosols during the acutely phase response.

Effect of Diet Composition on Vanadium Toxicity for the Chick

TL;DR: Studies to determine the effect of diet composition on the toxicity of 20 ppm added vanadium for the young chick have shown: growth depression of 25-30% with a corn-soybean meal ration but only 3-7% withA corn-herring fish meal diet.

Effect of zinc toxicity on calcium, phosphorus and magnesium metabolism of young rats.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of zinc toxicity on calcium, phosphorus and mag nesium levels of the bones of young rats in the presence and absence of dietary supplements found that the tox icity of several metals, including zinc, on the growth of Neurospora crassa can be alleviated by magnesium supplementation.

Cottonseed Meal, Dehydrated Grass and Ascorbic Acid as Dietary Factors Preventing Toxicity of Vanadium for the Chick

TL;DR: Of pertinence to this paper was the reference to studies indicating that vanadium toxicity was counteracted by subcutaneous injections, and little or no reference was made to studies involving birds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bromide and fluoride toxicities in the chick.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of dietary fat, calcium, and bromide on fluoride toxicity in chicks are represented, and four experiments were conducted using New Hampshire × Delaware chicks for an experimental period of four weeks.
