growth performance intestinal microflora plasma fatty acid profile in broiler chickens fed herbal plant euphorbia hirta and mix of Acidifiers
Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2012Co-Authors: S R Hashemi, I Zulkifli, Homa Davoodi, Z Zunita, Mahdi EbrahimiAbstract:Abstracts The aim of the current study was to evaluate two feed additives containing Euphorbia hirta and Acidifiers on broiler chickens performance, gut microflora and blood fatty acid profiles. A total of 240 one-day-old male broiler chicks were randomly assigned in groups of 15–16 floor pens. On day one, the chicks were assigned to one of 4 dietary treatments; (1) basal diet (control), (2) basal diet + 7.5 g/kg E. hirta (EH7.5), (3) basal diet + 1.5 g/kg Acidifier (OA) and (4) basal diet + 7.5 g/kg E. hirta + 1.5 g/kg Acidifier (EHOA). Body weight and feed intake were measured weekly and feed conversion ratio (FCR) was calculated. On days 21 and 42, eight birds from each dietary treatment were chosen at random for ileum viable bacterial counts. On day 42, thiobarbituric acid reactive species as an indicator of lipid peroxidation level were measured. The EH7.5, EHOA and OA supplementation improved overall FCR (P=0.0275). The serum of chickens fed with EH7.5, OA and EHOA showed the lower malondialdehyde value than that of chickens fed the control diet (P=0.0068). On day 42, the lowest total bacteria count and Escherichia coli was observed in EH7.5, OA and EHOA fed birds (P E. hirta in combination with Acidifier have a positive impact on FCR and their combination displays antioxidant and antibacterial characteristics in broiler chickens.

intestinal histomorphology changes and serum biochemistry responses of broiler chickens fed herbal plant euphorbia hirta and mix of Acidifier
Iranian Journal of Applied Animal Science, 2014Co-Authors: S R Hashemi, I Zulkifli, Homa Davoodi, Hair M Bejo, Teck Chwen LohAbstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary Euphorbia hirta and an Acidifier mixture supplementation on gut morphology and some blood parameters of broiler chickens.A total of 240 day old male broiler chicks were randomly assigned to one ofthe four dietary treatment groups including: (1) basal diet (control), (2) basal diet + 7.5 g/kg E. hirta (Eh7.5), (3) basal diet + 1.5 g/kg Acidifier (OA) and (4) basal diet + 7.5 g/kg E. hirta and1.5 g/kg Acidifier (EhOA). The Eh 7.5, OA and EhOA supplementation significantly improved overall feed conversion ratio compared to the control group. The addition ofEh 7.5, OA and their combination increased the villus height compare to the control birds. Crypt depth was markedly decreased by OA treatment. The highest ratio of villi to crypt was observed in OA fed broilers. Blood serum biochemical parameters did not influenced by the dietary treatments. In conclusion, the results indicated thataddition of Eh 7.5 and OA to the broiler diet enhanced maintenance and function of the small intestine and broiler performance.

efficacy of acidified sodium chlorite treatments in reducing escherichia coli o157 h7 on chinese cabbage
Journal of Food Protection, 2005Co-Authors: Yasuhiro Inatsu, Latiful Bari, Susumu Kawasaki, Kenji Isshiki, Shinichi KawamotoAbstract:Efficacy of acidified sodium chlorite for reducing the population of Escherichia coli O157:H7 pathogens on Chinese cabbage leaves was evaluated. Washing leaves with distilled water could reduce the population of E. coli O157:H7 by approximately 1.0 log CFU/g, whereas treating with acidified chlorite solution could reduce the population by 3.0 log CFU/g without changing the leaf color. A similar level of reduction was achieved by washing with sodium chlorite solution containing various organic acids. However, acidified sodium chlorite in combination with a mild heat treatment reduced the population by approximately 4.0 log CFU/g without affecting the color, but it softened the leaves. Moreover, the efficacy of the washing treatment was similar at low (4 degrees C) and room (25 degrees C) temperatures, indicating that acidified sodium chloride solution could be useful as a sanitizer for surface washing of fresh produce.
