The present study was conducted to assess the effects of pre-weaning probiotic treatments on growth performance of male Holstein calves. For experimental treatments, 20 male calves were divided into 2 groups as of control and treatment group. Control group calves were supplied with fresh milk daily in two meals without any growth promoting supplement. Together with fresh milk supply, treatment group calves were supplied with additional 2 g probiotics to their morning meal. Throughout 56-day milk-feeding period, live weights (LW) and feed consumptions (FC) of the calves were determined. As compared to the control group, probiotic-supplemented calves had 5.25% higher weaning live weight and 11.4% higher daily live weight gain (P less than 0.05). Probiotic-supplemented calves consumed 2% more feed than the control calves (P>0.05) and had 9.52% better feed conversion ratio than the control group calves (P less than 0.05). Probiotic supplementation did not affect blood biochemical parameters significantly (P less than 0.05), except ALT, triglyceride and iron levels (P less than 0.05). It was concluded that probiotic supplementation during milk-feeding period improved growth performance of experimental Holstein calves.

“…These results are in agreement with the finding of Abdelnour et al (2019) who supplemented rabbit diets with Chlorella vulgaris Microalgae. Also, with Peiretti and Meineri (2008), Kim et al (2010), Seyidoğlu and Galip (2013) and Khanna et al (2016) who showed that the final weight, weight gain did not differ significantly as a result of supplemented rabbit diets with Spirulina platensis microalgae. Moreover, Ayoub et al (2019) showed that supplemented Nile tilapia diets with A coffeaeformis diatoms algae with three concentration (10, 20 and 30g / kg diet) leads to enhance the growth performance, feed efficiency.…”

“…These results are in agreement with Abdelnour et al (2019) who showed that most of the serum parameters were non-significantly different by Chlorella vulgaris microalgae supplementation in rabbit diets. Also, Seyidoğlu and Galip (2014) and Khanna et al (2016) who indicated that there were no significant changes in serum biochemical indices as a result of supplemented rabbit diets with Spirulina platensis. While there were significant decreased in triglycerides, total cholesterol and activity AST and ALT in blood plasma in Spirulina platensis microalgae groups compared to control (El-Ratel, 2017).…”

total number of 60 weaned male and female V-line rabbits were used to evaluate supplemented Amphora coffeaeformis (A. coffeaeformis) alga extract (ACE) in drinking water on productive performance, carcass traits, physiological and antioxidant status during hot conditions. The experimental rabbits were randomize divided into four equal groups (n=15 each). In the first group (C), rabbits were kept as control (drank water without additives), in the 2 nd group rabbits drank water supplemented with vitamins and minerals (1 ml/liter, T1), in the 3 rd group rabbits drank water supplemented with 0.5ml ACE (0.5 ml/1iter, T2) while in the 4 th group rabbits drank water supplemented with 1ml ACE (1 ml/liter, T3). Body weight and total feed intake were weekly recorded. Total body gain, feed conversion were calculated and carcass traits of rabbits were also measured. Blood hematological, metabolites and antioxidant biomarkers were determined. The results showed that no significant differences were observed among groups in concern final body weight or body weight gain, carcass or internal organs weight percentages, blood hematological parameters and indices. While, 0.5 and 1ml ACE recorded significantly the best antioxidation indices (MDA and Catalase). Supplementation of rabbit drinking water with A. coffeaeformis alga had positive impact on performance and antioxidant capacity of growing rabbits under heat stress condition.

Spirulina platensis which is an important microalgae is interested in both human and animal nutrition for health balance. This study’s aimed to evaluate the dose dependent effects of S.platensis on body weight, height, waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), waist/height ratio (WHtR), abdominal fat weight, liver weight, serum liver enzymes and liver histopathology. 30 male Wistar albino rats’re used in groups; Control, SP-1(500mg/kgbw) and SP-2(1000mg/kgbw). S.platensis was administered by oral gavage daily. The body weight, height, WC, BMI, WHtR and abdominal lipid weight were calculated. Also, serum cholesterol, ALT and AST were measured. End of the study, liver tissue samples were taken and scaled and histopathologic changes were recorded. There were no differences in body conditions, but positively significant correlations were found among parameters. As the doses were considered, in groupSP-1, significant positively correlations were determined among abdominal fat, growth, height, BMI and WC statistically. Nevertheless, there were no significant changes in liver weight, serum and histopathologic analyzes. S.platensis with its high concentration of functional nutrients is called as an important alternative therapeutic food and it can be used safely.
