Article Synopsis
- Heat stress in poultry affects their ability to manage body temperature, but pequi oil's antioxidant properties may help alleviate these effects.
- This study examined the impact of pequi oil on laying hens under heat stress by analyzing plasma proteins after feeding two different diets over 84 days.
- Key proteins linked to inflammation, immune response, and heat adaptation were found to be enhanced in hens fed with pequi oil, suggesting it could improve resilience to heat stress and boost egg production.
