Ameliorative Efficacy Of Citrus Fruit Oil In Aflatoxicosis In Broilers: A Growth And Biochemical Study, Senthil Kumar Dhanapal, Suguna Rao, Pradeep Kumar Palahally Govindaraju, Ravikumar Hukkeri, Karikalan Mathesh

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

An experiment was conducted to study the efficacy of citrus fruit oil on growth parameters and biochemical parameters of broilers in 4 groups with 2 replicates of 20 chicks in each. Standard broiler diet without aflatoxin was given to group A, basal diet + citrus fruit oil 2.5 g kg^{-1} to group B, basal diet + 1 ppm aflatoxin to group C, and 1 ppm aflatoxin + basal diet + citrus fruit oil 2.5 g kg^{-1} to group D. The results showed that supplementation in group D had a moderate effect on posttreatment growth performance, relative organ weight, and biochemical …

Effect Of Sodium Bicarbonate Supplementation And 2 Different Ambient Temperatures On Growth Performance And Carcass Characteristics Of Lambs Fed Concentrate Diets, Demba Boi Jallow, Liang Chou Hsia

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

Twenty male Barbados lambs (3 months old) were used to evaluate the effects of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO_3) supplementation on growth performance and carcass characteristics of lambs fed concentrate diets in controlled-environment chambers set at 20 °C and 30 °C. In the 35-week-long growth trial, the animals were divided into 4 groups (n = 5) and fed 2 dietary treatments: a basal diet (35:65 roughage and concentrate) or a basal diet supplemented with 4% NaHCO_3. Twelve lambs randomly selected from this trial were arranged in a 2 × 2 factorial design for a 10-day-long slaughter and carcass evaluation experiment. Lambs in …
