“…Abdominal fat is regarded as the main waste source of poultry slaughtering houses. It can be suggested that MDV may increase the usage of proteins for muscular production and contribute to achieving low abdominal fat (Quachem & Kaboul, 2012;Yalçın et al, 2017).…”

The increase in poultry production and the high cost of soybean led to the search for alternative protein sources. One of these sources is vinasse, a by‐product of the baker's yeast industry. Modified dried vinasse (MDV) can be produced for use in poultry nutrition by making some improvements in vinasse. Therefore, the present study aimed to examine the effect of the usage of MDV in broiler diets. A total of 192 daily male Ross 308 chicks were randomly assigned to four groups. MDV was included at the levels of 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6% in the diets for 42‐day trial. Linear significant improvements in the final weight, body weight gain, feed efficiency, and digestibility were seen with increasing MDV levels. The use of MDV caused a significant reduction in feed consumption. The relative weight percentages of abdominal fat and serum cholesterol concentration were reduced linearly with increases in MDV levels. MDV inclusion linearly decreased the malondialdehyde concentration, but increased 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity in breast meat significantly. The protein content in breast meat was increased with MDV. Cecal beneficial microorganisms and serum IgG levels were increased linearly with MDV. In conclusion, results suggested that MDV could be a feasible option for alternative protein sources for broilers.

“…Castaing and Noblet (1997) 2% sepiolite supplementation reduced carcass fatness and an increase of muscle percentage in the carcass. Quachem and Kaboul (2012) stated that sepiolite may increase the use of proteins in muscle production and thus, reduce abdominal fat. Similarly, Yalçın et al (2017) suggested that meat proximate composition was not affected significantly by 1 and 2% sepiolite supplementation.…”

The present study aimed to examine the influence of sepiolite on growth performance, meat quality, intestinal health, some blood parameters, and digestibility of nutrients in broilers fed low protein diets with the constant energy-protein ratio. A total of 252, daily male broiler chicks were allocated to four treatment groups further divided into 9 replicates each containing 7 chicks. Low protein diets having a constant energy-protein ratio were formulated by lowering protein and energy levels of the control group diet by 5%. Sepiolite was used at the level of 1% in the diets. After 42 days trial total feed consumption, total body weight gain, total feed conversion ratio, and carcass yield were not influenced by reducing protein, sepiolite supplementation, and interaction between low protein-low energy diet and sepiolite. Reducing protein in the diets led to reducing the digestibility of nutrients, increasing ileal viscosity, decreasing villus height, villus surface area in duodenum and jejunum, and increasing abdominal fat, ether extract, cooking losses, total oxidant status, and oxidative status index in breast meat. Sepiolite supplementation to low protein diets increased crude protein digestibility, reduced viscosity, increased villus height/crypt depth values, reduced cooking losses, and increased water holding capacity. Blood serum biochemical parameters and minerals were not affected by sepiolite supplementation to low protein diets. Therefore, it is concluded that sepiolite can be added as a beneficial supplement in broiler diets as well as in low protein diets with a constant energy-protein ratio.

“…The results of Gupta and Gardner (2005) showed a significant (P≤0.05) reduction by 24% in the toxicity of the clay poultry litter aqueous leachate after 7 days than its corresponding value after one day, which indicated that a remarkable part of the toxic components as well as toxins or odiferous chemicals was adsorbed by the clay litter and the gastrointestinal tract of the animal, respectively. The results of Ouachem and Kaboul (2012) revealed that the clay contributed to enhance significantly (P=0.01) the immunity of the chicken broilers through increasing the relative weight of bursa Fabricius by about 24.3%. However, Veltmann et al (1984) found no pronounced differences in the mortality rate of turkey birds raised on rice hull products versus those kept on wood shavings.…”

One hundred and eighty, one day old Japanese Quail chicks were randomly assigned into three equal groups, each of 60 chicks to investigate their growth performance, leg problems, breast blisters and airborne dust particulates as well as the litter conditions affected by raising birds on some litters composed of different materials during the period from 0 to 8 weeks of age. Chicks in the first group (control; C) were raised on shopped wheat straw litter, while those in the second and third groups (L1 and L2) were raised on mixed litters composed of 25% of each of rice hulls, wheat straw, wood sawdust and clay as well as on 20 % of each of rice hulls, wheat straw, wood sawdust and 40 % clay, respectively. All birds were raised under similar environmental, managerial and hygienic conditions.The achieved results revealed that birds of the control (C), L1 and L2 groups had almost similar body weight, feed consumption and feed conversion values, while birds of L1 group had significantly (P≤0.05) higher body weight gain and less leg problems, breast blisters, mortality percentages as compared to those of C and L2 groups. There were only very limited differences in the litter moisture percentage, bacterial count, airborne organic dust particulates and ammonia concentrations among the tested litter types.The economic efficiency (EE), in relation to the use of the litter type exceeded remarkably in the L1than those of C and L2 groups. Therefore, the use of the clay at a level of 25% as a component of the litter for growing Japanese quail is highly recommended to achieve good growth performance coincided with adequate litter conditions and airborne dust particulates.
