RESPONSE OF BROILER CHICKENS FED DIETS SUPPLEMENTED WITH A BIOACTIVE OLIVE POMACE EXTRACT FROM OLEA EUROPAEA TO AN EXPERIMENTAL COCCIDIAL VACCINE CHALLENGE

  • 01/02/2021
This study aimed to investigate an experimental procedure of coccidial challenge in battery cages and the anticoccidial effect of a bioactive olive pomace extract from Olea europaea (OE) in broiler chickens. To this end, four hundred 1-day-old male chicks were randomly assigned to 5 experimental treatments (10 cages/treatment; 8 birds/cage).…
