“…The same results with AA-included diets have been reported by Afsharmanesh and Pourreza (2005), Andrys et al (2003), Abdel-Fattah et al (2008), and Attia et al (2013). The adverse effects of AA are attributed to the reduced feed intake due to bitter taste of the acid (El-Hakim et al 2009), and great change in hemostasis through altered pH and exchange of ions through biological membranes resulting in failure to establish internal balance causing deteriorated performance and gut mucosal health (Abdelrazek et al 2016), a phenomenon speculated to happen in the birds in current study too. In the contrary to our results, Abdel-Fattah et al (2008) found that improved live body weight in broiler chicks received AA through diet compared with those fed un-supplemented diets, results which confirmed entirely or in part, by Owens et al (2008), Adil et al (2011) and Ghazalah et al (2011) who associated the promising effect of AA to its beneficial effect on gut microbiota.…”

A 2 Â 6 factorial experiment was carried out to evaluate the single and combined effects of oral gavage of Satureja khuzistanica essential oils (SkEO; 0, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 mg/bird/day) and dietary acetic acid (AA; 0 and 20 mg/kg) on selected parameters using 252 Ross-308 14-dayold broiler chicks. Effects of 12 treatments were examined in seven replicates of three birds each. Administration of SkEO at 400, 500 and 600 mg/day reduced ADFI by 8.99, 8.09 and 10.12% compared with those gavaged with 200 mg, respectively. In the birds gavaged with 400 mg SkEO, serum concentration of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) increased when compared with those who received 600 mg SkEO in Days 42 of age. Serum concentration of albumin (ALB) was greater by 8.38% in birds fed with AA-added diets than the control birds in Day 34 of age. Serum concentration of antioxidants increased in the birds receiving 400 mg of SkEO and fed with the non-acidified diet than those receiving 300 mg of SkEO and fed acidified diets. Gross kidney health improved by gavaging SkEO indicated by greater frequency of score zero (apparently healthy) and reduced fat percentage in the SkEO-fed birds. The kidney fat proportion in the birds gavaged SkEO at 300 to 500 mg were decreased when compared with control birds in Day 38 of age. In conclusion, SkEO can be fed to broiler chicken to improve kidney health at 200 to 400 mg/day with no adverse effect of performance. HIGHLIGHTSDirect administration of SkEO into crop through oral gavageing lowered feed intake and improved gross kidney health. Almost all productive performance indications were adversely affected in birds receiving AAadded diets. No interaction was found between the SkEO and acetic acid in main productive traits.

“…(2013) . In most of these studies, the adverse effects of AA are modestly attributed to the reduced feed intake due to the bitter taste of the acid ( El-Hakim et al., 2009 ) and great change in hemostasis through altered pH and exchange of ions through biological membranes resulting in fail to establish internal balance causing deteriorated performance and gut mucosal health ( Abdelrazek et al., 2016 ). A recent study has demonstrated that AA treatment increased AMPKα phosphorylation, which subsequently increased expression and transcriptional activity of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α and upregulated the expression of lipid oxidation genes in a cell culture.…”

Independent and combined effects of Satureja khuzistanica essential oils and dietary acetic acid on fatty acid profile in thigh meat in male broiler chicken

A 2 × 6 factorial experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of Satureja khuzistanica essential oils ( SkEO ; 0, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 mg/bird/day) administered via oral gavage and dietary acetic acid ( AA ; 0 and 20 g/1 kg) on fatty acids ( FA ) composition in thigh meat of Ross 308 broiler chickens at days 34, 38, and 42 of age. Dietary AA reduced DWG, DFI, and European economic efficiency index, and increased FCR compared with the nonacidified diet. In day 34 of age, saturated FA ( SFA ) percentage reduced and polyunsaturated FA ( PUFA) , n-3, and n-6 percentages increased in the birds that received 400 mg SkEO. Mean monounsaturated FA ( MUFA ) percentage was greater, whereas PUFA, n-3, n-6, and total FA ( TFA ) percentages were lesser in the birds fed on the acidified diet. In day 38 of age, mean PUFA, TFA, n-3, and n-6 percentages were greater while MUFA and cis FA ( CFA ) concentrations were lesser in the thigh muscle of the birds that received 400 mg SkEO. Mean MUFA, PUFA, n-3, n-6, CFA, and TFA percentages were lower in the birds maintained on the acidified diet. In day 42 of age, mean SFA percentage reduced in the birds given 300 mg SkEO, while TFA percentage lowered in the birds that received 200 and 600 mg SkEO. The acidified diet decreased MUFA, TFA, and CFA percentage and increased SFA and the n-6 to n-3 fatty acids ratio of thigh meat in chicken. The results led to the conclusion that the daily enteral administration of SkEO through oral gavage may feasibly modify the fatty acids profile of thigh meat in favor of increased PUFA. Dietary AA and its interaction with SkEO inconsistently modified concentration of certain classes of fatty acids in broiler thigh meat, particularly in advanced ages. Almost all alterations induced by AA-involving treatments in fatty acids composition of thigh meat were on the contrary to the SkEO influences as they were in favor of an increased SFA proportion.

“…A study on acidifying drinking water of broilers with citric acid (pH 4.5) demonstrated improved gut modulation, liver health and thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) with respect to lipid profile showing equilibrium in internal homeostasis (Abdelrazek, Abuzead, Ali, El‐Genaidy, & Abdel‐Hafez, ). But the same study with acetic acid worsened the performance and gut health of broilers.…”

Ever since the European ban on use of in‐feed antibiotics in food animals, the search for alternate antibiotic‐free growth promoter is undertaken worldwide. There are few alternatives such as probiotics, pre‐biotics, phytochemicals, enzymes and organic acids. Among these alternatives, the organic acids or simply acidifiers play an important role in gut health in animals. The acidifiers could be used to favourably manipulate the intestinal microbial populations and improve the immune response, hence perform an activity similar to antibiotics in food animals in countering pathogenic bacteria. Acidifiers also improve the digestibility of nutrients and increase the absorption of minerals. The incorporation of organic acids also leads to thinning of the intestinal lining which facilitates better absorption of nutrients and its efficient utilization. However, their effect will not be similar among all types of organic acids as their mechanism of activity is based on its pKa value. Moreover, there are claims about the neutralization of acids by the secretion of bicarbonates in the initial part of intestine, reactivity with metallic items in feed mills and reduced palatability due its bitter taste demands non‐reactive and targeted delivery for better performance. Currently, coated salts of acidifiers are available commercially for use in food animals especially pigs and poultry. The present review highlights the role of different acidifiers in livestock nutrition with their potent applications in improving nutrient digestibility, mineral utilization, meat quality, enhancing immunity, antimicrobial effects in countering pathogenic bacteria, boosting performance and production, and thus safeguarding health of livestock animals and poultry.
