“…The macroscopic liver changes observed in the present study are consistent with previously reported studies (Sawhney et al, 1973;Ortatatli & Oguz, 2001;Oliveira et al, 2002;Ortatatli et al, 2005;Citil et al, 2007;Magnoli et al, 2012;Ibrahim, 2013). The most common finding in aflatoxicosisis fatty and hydropic degeneration of the liver, as observed by microscopic examination (Sawhney et al, 1973;Bryden & Cumming, 1980;Ortatatli & Oguz, 2001;Oliveira et al, 2002;Karaman et al, 2005;Ortatatli et al, 2005;Attia et al, 2016). No severe lesions were observed in the Control, GM, 2GM, and A+2GM birds.…”

This experimental study was performed to investigate whether there is a protective effect of different doses of Glucomannan using against aflatoxicosis in Japanese quail, and pathological changes and relative organ weights were compared. In the experiment, 60 one-day old male Japanese quails were used as divided into six different groups. Experimental groups were designated as Control(C), aflatoxin(A), glucomannan(GM), 2-fold dose of glucomannan(2GM), aflatoxin+glucomannan(A+GM) and aflatoxin+2-fold dose of glucomannan(A+2GM). While control group quails fed the standard ration as ad libitum, other groups were fed with the administrations additionally to standard diet respectively; 2mg/kg of aflatoxin to group A, 1g/kg of glucomannan to group GM, 2g/kg of glucomannan to group 2GM, 2mg/kg of aflatoxin and 1g/kg glucomannan to group A+GM, 2mg/kg of aflatoxin and 2g/ kg glucomannan to group A+2GM. All quails were euthanized at day 21 of the study and organs, (liver, spleen, kidney, thymus and bursa of Fabricius) were removed, weighed and subjected to routine histopathological procedures. Although any important macroscopic changes were not observed in the C, GM and 2GM groups, significant pathological changes were found in the groups of A, A+GM and A+2GM. In the A+GM group, the partial reduction in the severity of microscopic lesions were seen in liver, bursa of Fabricius, thymus and spleen, however a significant reduction in severity of lesions was noticed in A+2GM group. As a result of the study, 2g/kg of glucomannan has been found pathologically to be more effective than 1g/kg glucomannan in terms of the protection against aflatoxicosis by giving orally.

“…However, probiotic addition seemed to be beneficial, particularly when added to a 30% blue lupine diet, which exhibited higher crude fiber and low amino acid concentrations, causing an improvement of 2.71, 1.34, and 4.07% in growth rate, FCR, and EPEI, respectively. These results are similar to those reported by (24,25,35,54,55), who found that probiotics containing Bacillus spp. and Saccharomyces boulardii benefit the production performance of broilers from 1 to 28 d of age.…”

“…The European production efficiency index (EPEI) was calculated according to (15). After being fasted overnight, four males chickens from each treatment group, i.e., one chicken per replicate, were randomly slaughtered at 21 and 35 d of age according to the Islamic method (34,35). The carcass, abdominal fat, breast muscles, unskinned right and left thighs, and thigh muscles were weighed and expressed in relation to living body weight.…”

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different dietary levels of blue lupine (Lupinus angustifolius) seed meal with or without probiotics (Bacillus subtilis) in broiler diets on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, internal and immune organs, and gut morphology. Three experimental diets containing 0, 20, and 30% of blue lupine, with or without probiotics, were formulated and fed to 144 day (d)-old Ross 308 broiler chickens. Overall, chicks fed blue lupine meal diets, especially at the 30% rate, showed improved growth, feed performance parameters, and carcass characteristics in comparison to chicks fed a soybean meal-based diet. For example, a 30% blue lupine diet resulted in a significant increase in the duodenum length percentage of 35 d-old broilers; the addition of probiotics had no-effects on the dressing, thigh, and leg percentages of 21-and 35 d-old broilers and the drumstick and leg percentages of 35 d-old broilers. In conclusion, a 30% blue lupine seed diet with the addition of probiotics could provide a cheap source of protein without negative effects on the growth performance, carcass characteristics, immune organs and gut morphology of broilers.

“…In the present study, compared with sows from L-THI, sows from H-THI had lesser individual piglet birth weight (P < 0.10). It's reported that dietary supplementation of non-nutritive feed additives improved productive and physiological parameters of livestock (28,29). However, dietary supplementation of SCFP did not affect reproductive performance of sows.…”
