Influence of two plant extracts on broilers performance, digestibility, and digestive organ size
TL;DR: In the present study, both plant extracts improved the digestibility of the feeds for broilers and the effect of different additives on digestibility improved the performance slightly, but this effect was not statistically significant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of dietary fructooligosaccharide on digestive enzyme activities, intestinal microflora and morphology of male broilers
TL;DR: Two hundred forty male Avian Farms broiler chicks, 1 d of age, were randomly allocated to four treatments, each of which had five pens of 12 chicks per pen, to investigate the effects of fructooligosaccharide (FOS) on digestive enzyme activities and intestinal microflora and morphology.

Sodium Chloride for Broiler Breeders
TL;DR: Current National Research Council (1977) sodium requirements for heavy breeders may provide at least 23% more sodium than is required (less than or equal to 154 mg/day) and that daily sodium intakes in the range of 320 to 420 mg may reduce fertility in broiler breeders are indicated.

Salt as a Stress Factor in Relation to Pendulous Crop and Aortic Rupture in Turkeys
J. A. Harper,G. H. Arscott +1 more
TL;DR: An investigation on aortic rupture in turkeys a high incidence of pendulous crop was found to occur when the ration contained a higher percentage of salt than is recommended by the National Research Council (1960).

Effect of riboflavin deficiency on the metabolism of oxypurines in chicks.
TL;DR: Observations show that dietary riboflavin being incorporated into xanthine dehydrogenase is essential for oxypurine metabolism, and in the chick, the liver and the kidney may be important sites of uric acid synthesis.

Stability and Effect on Energy Metabolism of Thiamine in Poultry Rations
L. S. S. Guo,John D. Summers +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic investigation of the stability of thiamine to heat at different pH values and salt concentrations was undertaken by Beadle et al. (1943).

R. Kazemi,F. H. Kratzer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different plant protein meals on the vitamin B6 requirement of broiler chicks was investigated and a significant reduction in growth was observed in the group fed soybean meal with.5 mg vitamin b6 /kg.
