“…Obter um substituto, à altura destes agentes, e compreender melhor os mecanismos de ação dos antimicrobianos como melhoradores de desempenho, tem sido foco de pesquisa de diversos estudiosos e as propostas, até então apresentadas, são diversas: mananoligossacarídeos (7), prebióticos (5), probióticos (8), enzimas exógenas como proposta de retirada de antimicrobianos ( 9), e os óleos funcionais, originados de plantas que possuem propriedades nutracêuticas (10).…”

A administração de antibióticos melhoradores de crescimento em animais tem sido cada vez mais discutida e desestimulada, devido às preocupações com a seleção e potencial transmissão de resistência às bactérias a esses compostos em seres humanos, principalmente, se o agente antimicrobiano registrado para uso em animais pertencer à mesma classe que os medicamentos usados na medicina humana. Além disso, o apelo para a sustentabilidade dos sistemas de produção animal e o advento da nutrição animal de precisão, levam todo o setor produtivo a despertar para a busca de novos compostos que possam substituir os antibióticos melhoradores de desempenho de modo eficiente e sustentável, sem causar possíveis riscos aos animais e aos seres humanos. Nesta ótica, os óleos funcionais se destacam por terem uma capacidade antimicrobiana ímpar e poderem atuar como moduladores de microbiota intestinal e melhoradores de sistema imunológico na dieta de codornas.

“…Performance enhancers have been the focus of research of several scholars, and the proposals hitherto presented have been diverse, such as mannanoligosaccharides (Chacher et al, 2017). Other mathods include prebiotics (Biswas, Mohan, Raza, Mir, & Mandal, 2019), probiotics (Ferdous et al, 2019), exogenous enzymes (Cowieson & Kluenter, 2019), functional oils originated from plants that have nutraceutical properties (Gandra, Nunes Gil, Gandra, Takiya, & Gobesso, 2017), and homoeopathy (Souza, 2002;Souza Oliveira et al, 2020).…”

This study aims to evaluate the effects of the inclusion of different homoeopathic products on the diet of laying quails. We used 200 Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) distributed in a completely randomized design consisting of the adoption of four experimental diets, with eight replicates of five quails each. The treatments were control (without additives), calcium carbonate (vehicle used in the products), Fertsigo®, and Ovosigo®. We determined the performance, egg quality, and blood biochemical profile of quails. The data were submitted to Tukey test at 5% probability. There was a significant effect of the homeopathic products Fertsigo® and Ovosigo® on the variables egg weight, yolk, albumen, and shell percentage. It did not affect the performance and blood biochemical profile (p > 0.05). The addition of the homoeopathic product Ovosigo® and FertSigo® in diets of Japanese quails at the laying phase is recommended because they resulted in the better weight of the egg and its components. Thus, the application of homoeopathy in the production of quails is a viable practice, since it is easy to manage, has a reduced cost, and exerts positive effects on the performance of quails.

“…Obtaining a substitute, at the height of these agents, and better understanding the mechanisms of action of antimicrobials as performance enhancers, has been the focus of research by several scholars and the proposals, so far presented, are diverse: prebiotics (Chacher et al, 2017, Biswas et al, 2018, probiotics (Valentim et al, 2018;Ferdous et al, 2019), exogenous enzymes (Cowieson & Kluenter, 2018) and functional plant extracts, originated from plants that have nutraceutical properties as a proposal to remove antimicrobials (Gandra et al, 2015). Propolis is a resinous, balsamic and gummy substance produced by bees (Casquete, Castro, Jácome, & Teixeira, 2016) originating in the first instance from plant exudations, such as resins and liquids secreted during the initial development of leaf and floral buds, in addition to several other parts of the plant such as shoots, leaves, crevices, and bark of tree trunks (Costa, Barbosa, Holanda, & Flach, 2016) and this substance collected by bees is added wax so that the mixture becomes moldable and during this process, bees add secretions from their glands and pollen (Coelho et al, 2010).…”

The present study was carried out to evaluate the substitution of synthetic performance enhancers by ethanolic propolis extract (EPE) in the diet of broilers and their effects on performance, carcass yield, noble cuts, viscera and bed quality. A completely randomized design was used, with four treatments and six replicates each, totaling 24 experimental plots with 20 birds each. The experimental treatments were: negative control, without the inclusion of performance improvement and EPE-free; positive control, containing avilamycin performance enhancer; Inclusion of 0.1% of EPE and; Inclusion of 0.2% EPE. The analyzed data were submitted to analysis of variance and applied the SNK test at 5% probability. There was no effect of the inclusion of additives on feed intake and feed conversion in the periods from 1 to 7, 1 to 21, and from 1 to 42 days of age. Weight gain was lower in birds receiving feed with the inclusion of 0.1% EPE in the period from 1 to 7 days, not differing from the other treatments in the other evaluation periods. Carcass characteristics, cuts, and viscera and bed moisture were not influenced by the treatments used. The inclusion of ethanol extract from propolis as a performance enhancer up to 42 days of age provided similar results to the use of performance enhancers based on avilamycin, thus being an efficient substitute in poultry production.
