Book Phytogenic Feed Additives as An Alternative to Antibiotic Growth Promoters in Poultry Nutrition

Download or read book Phytogenic Feed Additives as An Alternative to Antibiotic Growth Promoters in Poultry Nutrition written by Jet Saartje Mandey and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phytoadditives in animal nutrition have attracted a lot of attention for their potential role as alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters. Phytoadditives are feed additives originated from plants or botanicals that are used in poultry nutrition. This chapter provides an overview about the potency of alternative additive from plants as a basis for exploring it as a phytoadditive for poultry. These substances are derived from herbs, spices, and other plants and their extracts. They are natural, less toxic, residue free and ideal feed additives for poultry when compared to synthetic antibiotics. There efficacy of phytogenic applications in poultry nutrition depends on several factors, such as composition and feed inclusion level of phytogenic preparations, bird genetics, and overall diet composition. Addition of 100 mg/kg feed essential oils consist of carvacrol, thymol and limonene in matrix encapsulation improved performance and apparent ideal digestibility of nutrients of broiler chickens. Besides enhancing performance, phytogenic also has antioxidant, the effects of which are associated with essential oils (EOs) and their components. Administration of eucalyptus and peppermint oil blends by oral (0.25 ml/L drinking water) and spray route (0.1 ml/20 ml water) reduced Newcastle disease infection in broilers. Phytoadditives have antimicrobial, antifungal, antiviral, antitoxigenic, antiparasitic and insecticidal properties. The benefits of using phytoadditives in poultry nutrition are increased feed intake, stimulation of digestion, increased growth performance, reduced incidence of disease, improved reproductive parameters, feed efficiency, profitability. Based on the latest scientific findings presented in this chapter, the following main conclusions have been drawn that phytomolecule and that bioactives have potential to be developed as an alternative additive for poultry, and that promote health.

Book New Approaches to Exploit Poultry Industry

Download or read book New Approaches to Exploit Poultry Industry written by Sheikh Adil and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the modern feeding practices, feed additives have assumed a position of prime importance in poultry nutrition to meet the global requirements. They not only stimulate growth and improve feed conversion efficiency but meliorate the health of birds too by providing a physiological benefit beyond the provision of basic nutrients. Because of the growing concern over the transmission and proliferation of resistant bacteria via the food chain, the European Union (EU) in 2006 banned antibiotic growth promoters to be used as feed additives in poultry nutrition. Therefore, many non-therapeutic alternatives are being used that could help normal development of physiological functions so as to maximize the production performance of the bird. This book brings into the fore the beneficial properties of one such alternative namely organic acid. The organic acids and their salts are generally regarded as safe and have been approved by most member states of the EU to be used as feed additives. This book is a must-have for nutritionists, researchers, teachers, students and farmers associated with the field of poultry science and for general masses as well. Remember "Produce healthy, eat healthy"

Book Food Safety in Poultry Meat Production

Download or read book Food Safety in Poultry Meat Production written by Kumar Venkitanarayanan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive study of poultry meat safety offers readers the most up-to-date information on food safety concerns in poultry meat production. Chapters address recent topics of interest such as organic poultry production, antimicrobial resistant pathogens in poultry, antibiotic usage in poultry production, and pre- and post- harvest approaches to improving poultry meat safety. The last couple of decades have observed a significant increase in poultry meat production in the US. However, poultry meat is a potential source of foodborne pathogens such as Salmonella, Campylobacter spp. and pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC linked to human infections), leading to economic losses to the poultry industry and impacting public health. Advances in knowledge in microbiology, molecular biology, immunology and “omics” fields have intensified efforts to improve the microbiological safety of poultry by targeting virulence mechanisms of the pathogens, developing vaccines and improving gut health in chickens. Moreover, due to the emergence of multidrug resistance in poultry-borne pathogens, and growth of organic poultry production, there exists significant interest for developing natural strategies for controlling pathogens in chickens. This edited volume provides insight into these strategies and covers other material of interest to food microbiologists, public health personnel, and poultry scientists. Readers of various backgrounds will appreciate its incorporation of recent developments not covered in other publications on the subject.
