ABSTRACT This research aimed to evaluate the influence of a commercial prebiotic in different concentrations upon several parameters. To carry out the experiment, 640 male one-day-old broiler chicks were distributed in four treatments (0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 kg/ton of yeast cell wall) with eight replicates of 20 birds per experimental unit, in randomized blocks. Prebiotic effects were assessed on performance, carcass yield and prime cuts, in addition to the litter quality (its content of nitrogen and phosphorus). There were […]

This trial was conducted to study the use of mannanoligosaccharide (standard and concentrate) on chicks diets. One thousand and eigthy 1-d male chicks (Ross) averaging 42 g of initial BW were assigned to a completely randomized experiment with nine replications of 20 birds per experimental unit. The following treatments were analyzed: control, antibiotic (avilamicine), mannaoligosaccharide high concentration (MOS AT), mannaoligosaccharide standard (MOS ST), MOS AT + antibiotic, and MOS ST + antibiotic. The birds were reared in wood powder, reused […]
