The egg-type pateros ducks, Anas platyrhynchos domestica, in the Philippines are raised in the traditional semi free-range management system which allows farmers to keep the ducks in flocks as extra activities in between their crop... more
Citric acid (CIT, 0.3%) was assessed for its ability to reduce the pink color defect in ground, cooked (80C) turkey breast associated with nicotinamide hemochrome (NICHEME) and nitrosyl hemochrome (NITHEME). CIT incorporation in... more
The aim of this study was to ascertain the influence of natural zeolite, consisting mainly of clinoptilolite and mordenite, as a component of the litter material in broiler houses on the performance of the broilers and on some litter... more
The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of fermented Sauropus androgynus leaves (SAL) on meat composition of broiler meats. One hundred and twelve broiler chicks aged 15 days were distributed to seven groups with four... more
The objective of this study was to develop a real-time PCR assay for rapid identification of Campylobacter jejuni and to apply the method in analyzing samples from poultry processing. A C. jejuni-specific primer set targeting a portion of... more
Aim: This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of Artemisia herba-alba (white wormwood) or olive leaf (Olea europaea) powder supplementation on growth performance, carcass yield, and serum biochemical parameters in broilers. Materials... more
In developing countries poultry rearing has been practiced for many years. The study focused on revealing the level of empowerment of rural women and food assurance through poultry farming especially chicken. Data was collected from one... more
In a 6-week experiment on 560 Cobb broilers, the response of chickens to supplementation of diets with particulate grit and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-D3) was evaluated. Maize- and soyabean meal-based diets contained pulverized... more
This study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of Fenugreek seeds (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) on overall performance of broiler. A total of 96-day old Cobb-500 chicks were randomly divided into four dietary treatment groups namely... more
The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of various types of heat processing used by consumers (water bath cooking WBC, oven convection roasting OCR, grilling G, pan frying PF) on the energy and the nutritional value of goose... more
Small scale poultry industry faces many hurdles. The study investigates the hurdles or constraints which are faced by the small scale poultry industry which hinders its growth. Data was collected using purposive sampling technique from... more
Three experiments were conducted to determine and validate the relative bioefficacy of the liquid form of hydroxy analog (liquid MHA-FA) to that of DL-methionine (Met) in male broilers. In experiments 1 and 2, 945 and 550 male broilers... more
The investigational trials were conducted on day-old, total ninety chicks of broilers and indigenous (IND) poultry breeds in controlled conditions to analyze some hematological parameters. Water and basal diet were provided ad libitum.... more
The aim of this project was to investigate the effect of dietary inclusion of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) on nutrient digestibility and immune response of caged layers during summer when the temperature exceeds 40 ̊C. For immune response... more
Egg quality and hatchability characters of Tellicherry chicken reared under extensive system of management. Indian Journal of Poultry Science, 48 (2): 265-268. A total of 100 eggs of Tellicherry chicken reared under extensive system of... more
Limestone was crumbled into fine particles (LF) of 0.1-0.4 mm or to a particulate grit (LG) of 2-4 mm. One hundred and eighty individually kept Hy-Line Brown laying hens were used in the experiment and divided into 10 groups. Diets... more
ABSTRACT This work reviewed researches done on the effect of feed restriction on growth performance of broiler chickens in a hot climate. The effect of thermal stress on chickens has led to several strategies of alleviating this problem... more
Dietary fiber (DF) was considered an antinutritional factor due to its adverse effects on feed intake and nutrient digestibility. However, with increasing evidence, scientists have found that DF has enormous impacts on the... more
