Effect of baker's yeast fermented moist feed on the growth and bone mineralization in broiler.

Objective: The effect of feeding yeast-fermented feed in various forms on broiler growth performance and bone mineralization was studied.

Materials And Methods: Initially, a corn-soy-based diet was formulated and fermented in anaerobic conditions at 28°C in laboratory space for 48 h with yeast (2.0%) and moisture (50%).

Combined impact of lemongrass and spearmint herbs on performance, serum metabolites, liver enzymes, and meat quality of broiler.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the influence of feeding fresh lemongrass () or spearmint () and their combination on performance, serum metabolites, liver enzymes, and meat quality in broilers.

Materials And Methods: A total of 168 day-old Indian River chicks were arbitrarily offered four experimental rations: (i) control ration (CT-R): corn-soya-based ration, (ii) lemongrass ration (LG-R): CT-R + 1.0% DM of lemongrass; (iii) spearmint ration (SM-R): CT-R + 1.

Effect of a two-step fermentation method with rumen liquor on protein quality of wheat bran and rice bran to use as poultry feed.

The availability of high quality protein rich feed in many developing countries is limited as well as expensive. Low-quality agro-industrial by-products, i.e.

Anaerobic fermentation of rice bran with rumen liquor for reducing their fiber components to use as chicken feed.

Rice bran is a very cheap and abundant agricultural by-product in rice producing countries. Additionally, many developing countries used these by products as poultry feed. Rice bran (RB) contains high fiber and chicken is not capable to digest those fibrous feed effectively, resulting in low production performance.

Comparative efficacy of citric acid, Spirulina platensis, and their combination as alternatives to an antibiotic growth promoter on the performances of broilers.

Objective: A 35-day-long trial was conducted to compare the consequences of supplementing citric acid (CA), , and their combination as natural substitutes for antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) on the productive performance, dressing percentage, and blood serum metabolites of broilers.

Materials And Methods: A total of 150-day-old Cobb-500 broiler chicks were randomly assigned to 5 dietary treatment groups, each having 30 chicks in it (10 chicks per replicate cage). The dietary groups were as follows: 1- Control (corn-soybean-based), 2- Control + antibiotic (Enrofloxacin, 10 mg/kg bodyweight), 3- Control + 1% , 4- Control + 0.

Method development to reduce the fiber content of wheat bran and rice bran through anaerobic fermentation with rumen liquor for use in poultry feed.

Objective: Wheat bran (WB) and rice bran (RB) are the agricultural by-products used as poultry feed in many developing countries. However, their use for poultry feed is limited due to high fiber and the presence of anti-nutritional substances (e.g.
