“…There is a significant motivation for phytogenic feed additives as a potential alternative to using synthetic antibiotics as growth promoters since the European Union banned growth promoters in 2006. In addition, the regulations are being tightened in the United States [14][15][16]. This ban is due to safety concerns about bacterial resistance to the synthesized antibiotics and the hazardous residuals in meat, milk, and eggs, which would pose a great threat to human health [17,18].…”

This study was conducted to assess the impacts of using two essential oils, rosemary and ginger, on growing rabbits’ performance, carcass traits, meat composition, blood biochemicals, and the redux status of growing New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits. A total of 120 unsexed NZW rabbits, 42-days-old, were assigned randomly to five experimental groups (n = 24, 6 replicates with 4 rabbits each). The first group received a basal diet (control), the second to fifth groups were dietary supplemented daily with rosemary essential oil (REO) and ginger essential oil (GEO) at doses of 0.25 and 0.5% for each supplementation (REO-0.25, REO-0.5, GEO-0.25, and GEO-0.5), respectively. The growth traits were studied for 7 weeks, from the 7th to the 13th week of the rabbits’ age. The results revealed that final body weight, weight gain, and average daily gain increased significantly (p < 0.01) in the REO-0.5 and GEO-0.5 treatments compared to the control group. Daily feed intake decreased (p = 0.005) in essential oil treatments. Meanwhile, the feed conversion ratio improved significantly (p = 0.001) in REO and GEO at the high doses compared to the control group. The weight percentages of liver and giblets increased (p < 0.001) with both treatments of REO and GEO compared to the control group. The dietary supplementation with REO and GEO did not affect (p > 0.05) the meat composition of Longissimus dorsi and hind leg muscles. Meanwhile, REO and GEO supplementation significantly decreased cholesterol levels in the rabbit meat. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance concentrations decreased by 10 and 15% in the meat of REO-0.5 and GEO-0.5 treatments, respectively, compared to the other groups. In the same trend, REO and GEO treatments induced a significant (p = 0.001) reduction in the plasma cholesterol concentrations and triglycerides compared to the control. The total antioxidant capacity increased by 7.60% and the malondialdehyde decreased by 11.64% in the plasma of GEO-0.5 treatment than the control. Thus, the dietary supplementation of REO and GEO have a beneficial effect in improving the productivity and meat quality of growing rabbits.

“…MOS is widely used as a raw material in animal feed [ 25 , 26 ] as the use of prophylactic antibiotics in animal feed is banned worldwide [ 27 , 28 ]. Supplementation of piglet diets with MOS improved their growth performance and immunity [ 29 , 30 ].…”

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of dietary supplementation with mannose oligosaccharide (MOS) on the condition of the body and the reproductive and lactation performances of sows. Eighty pregnant sows were randomly assigned to four groups with a 2 × 2 factorial design: with or without MOS (1 g/kg) and with or without heat stress (HS) challenge. The temperature in the HS groups (HS and HM group) was controlled at 31.56 ± 1.22 °C, while the temperature in the active cooling (AC) groups (AC and AM group) was controlled at 23.49 ± 0.72 °C. The weight loss of sows in the AC group was significantly lower than that of sows in the HS group (p < 0.01). The weight and backfat thickness loss of sows supplemented with MOS displayed a downward trend. The average birth weight of the litter significantly increased in the HM group (basic diet + MOS) compared with the HS group (p < 0.05). The milk protein of sows significantly decreased under the HS condition at 2 and 12 h after delivery (p < 0.05). However, the milk immunoglobin G (IgG) of sows in the HS group increased significantly compared with that of sows in the HM group (p < 0.05) at 12 and 24 h after delivery. The levels of serum urea nitrogen (UREA) and glucose (GLU) decreased significantly under the HS condition (p < 0.05), while the level of interleukin-6 (IL-6) increased significantly under the HS condition (p < 0.05). Dietary supplementation with MOS also significantly reduced TNF-α under the AC conditions (p < 0.05). In conclusion, HS significantly affected the body condition, lactation performances and their offspring of sows. However, dietary supplementation with 1 g/kg MOS did not result in statistically significant changes.

“…They preserve the balanced gut micro ora and intestinal uptake (Kim et al, 2019), and reduce the disease spreading. These advantages can be achieved by including various medicinal plants in the feed or drinking water of broiler breeding (Seidavi et al, 2021). Another advantage of incorporating additives is to enrich the food with antioxidants and bioactif antimicrobial compounds (Hashemi et al, 2012).…”

This study has been designed to examine the effects of three phytogenic feed additives (PHT) on certain zootechnical and hematobiochemical parameters in broiler chicken. The PHT were formulated from Coriandrum sativum L., Trigonella foenum-graecum L., and Pimpinella anisum L. 360 one-day-old Cobb broilers were randomly divided into 4 dietary treatment groups; a control group (CTLG), and three groups fed a basal diet supplemented respectively with 3% of Coriander (PHT1G), 3% of a combination 50% Coriander- 50% Fenugreek (PHT2G), and finally 3% of a combination 50% Coriander- 50% Anise (PHT3G). The results showed that the birds of PHT3 group realized the highest live body and internal organs weight. However, the weight of the abdominal fat was not affected. Broilers in the same group had a significantly (P <0.05) higher lymphocyte level 120.103 /µl, followed by PHT2 group with 80.103 /µl. The level of monocytes in PHT2 and PHT3 groups was respectively 66.103 /µl and 60.103 /µl. Concerning the granulocytes, we noted 200.103 /µl in PHT2 group and 102.103 /µl in PHT3G. A significant difference (P <0.05) was recorded in the uric acid levels with 50.4mg/l, 59.84mg/l, and 47.29mg/l respectively for PHT1G, PHT2G, and PHT3G groups. Levels of the uric acid were lower than the level recorded in the control group (84.36mg/l). The use of the phytogenic feed additives we formulated may have a positive effect both on weight gain and hematobiochemical parameters in broiler chicken, especially the levels of different types of white blood cells, and the uric acid rate.
