DIET SUPPLEMENTATION WITH A BIOACTIVE

DIET SUPPLEMENTATION WITH A BIOACTIVE POMACE EXTRACT FROM OLEA EUROPAEA PARTIALLY MITIGATES NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON GUT HEALTH ARISING FROM A SHORT-TERM FASTING PERIOD IN BROILER CHICKENS

The effects of supplementing chicken diets with an olive pomace extract (OE) from Olea europaea on performance and gut health after a challenge of intestinal permeability (IP) increase were studied. Treatments included a control diet with no additives (CF), and diets supplemented with 100 ppm of monensin (MF) or with…

EFFECTS OF A BIOACTIVE OLIVE POMACE EXTRACT FROM OLEA EUROPAEA ON GROWTH PERFORMANCE, GUT FUNCTION, AND INTESTINAL MICROBIOTA IN BROILER CHICKENS

The present study aims to investigate the effects of supplementing broiler diets with a bioactive olive pomace extract (OE) from Olea europaea on growth performance, digestibility, gut microbiota, bile acid composition, and immune response. To this end, three hundred and six 1-day-old broiler chickens (Ross 308) were housed in floor…

EFFECT OF EXTRUSION ON LIPID OXIDATION IN A FLAXSEED-BASED PRODUCT

Introduction Extrusion is a technology widely used in feed processing that consists of combining high temperatures and high pressures to the feed material. The main objective when used in a final feed is to improve digestibility, but it can also be used in raw materials such as rice bran (Riaz,…

EFFECTS OF FEEDING AN OLIVE POMACE EXTRACT FROM OLEA EUROPAEA TO BROILER CHICKENS ON INTESTINAL MUCOSA INTEGRITY AFTER A SHORT-TERM FASTING PERIOD

The Problem: The current need to find alternatives to the use of antibiotics utilization in animal feeds is opening opportunities for feed additives such as phytochemicals in poultry. The present study aims to investigate the effects of supplementing broiler diets with a bioactive pomace-oil extract from Olea europaea (OE) on…

FEEDING A BIOACTIVE EXTRACT FROM OLEA EUROPAEA TO BROILER CHICKENS EXERTS A POSITIVE IMMUNOREGULATORY EFFECT WITHOUT MAJOR EFFECTS ON GUT MICROBIOT

The present study examined the effects of bioactive compounds from a standardized Olea europaea extract (OE) on gut microbiota composition and immune response in broiler chickens. A total of 3 hundred and 6 1-dold broiler chickens (Ross 308) were randomly allocated in floor pens (6 pens / treatment, with 17…
