  • In situ rumen degradability and in vitro intestinal digestibility of rumen-protected methyl donors and lysine

    Rumen degradation and intestinal digestibility of rumen-protected (RP) methyl donor and lysine products vary. Our objectives were to evaluate the in situ rumen degradability and in vitro intestinal digestibility of 4 RP products containing choline chloride, dl-methionine, betaine, and/or l-lysine in a triglyceride matrix.
  • Effects of supplementing rumen protected methionine on performance of primiparous dairy cows during Presynch-Ovsynch protocol

    The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of supplementing three levels of rumen-protected methionine (RPM) at two levels of protein (14 vs. 16% CP) on reproductive and productive performance in primiparous lactating dairy cows during timed artificial insemination (TAI) protocol.
  • Effect of supplemental rumen-protected methionine on reproduction and production of Awassi ewes

    Feeding a rumen-protected methionine (RPM) supplement improved milk production in lactating dairy cows, lactating goats, or ewes. In this study, we hypothesize that feeding RPM would enhance reproduction and production in Awassi ewes.
  • How to improve colostrum quality

    Ruminants placenta avoids immunoglobulins transfer from the mother to the fetus (passive immunity). Calves are not protected against infections until they develop their own active immunity, except for antibodies received through colostrum.
  • A blend of microencapsulated organic acids and botanicals reduces necrotic enteritis via specific signaling pathways in broilers

    The objective was to evaluate the efficacy of AviPlus®P (a microencapsulated blend of 25 % citric and 16.7% sorbic, 1.7% thymol, and 1% vanillin ) to reduce clinical NE and determine the signaling pathways associated with any changes.
  • Effects of microencapsulated methionine on milk production and manure nitrogen excretions of lactating dairy cows

    The study objective was to determine the effects of rumen-protected methionine (Met) by microencapsulation (RPM) on amino acid (AA) supply to the udder, milk production, and manure nitrogen (N) losses of dairy cows.
  • From acidifiers to intestinal health enhancers: how organic acids can improve growth efficiency of pigs

    Organic acids have been used for a long time to support pig growth particularly at weaning, and more recently have become the number one alternative to growth promoters to improve the production efficiency of pigs.
  • Evaluation of microencapsulated organic acids and botanicals on growth performance of nursery and growing-finishing pigs

    Providing microencapsulated organic acids and botanicals during the nursery phase increased G:F in the early and overall nursery phase, but there was no effect on overall wean-to-finish performance.
  • An effective replacement herd is based on the optimal colostrum management

    In general, 25-30% f the herd must be replaced every year. A restocking plan aims to rear healthy heifers to replace, two years later, the culled cows, with improved production and genetic value of the herd. High-quality heifers at the best cost possible are essential to put in place this plan and maximize income.
  • Single components of botanicals and nature-identical compounds as a non-antibiotic strategy to ameliorate health status and improve performance in poultry and pigs

    The use of NIC allows us to properly combine pure compounds, according to the target to achieve. Thus, they represent a promising non-antibiotic tool to allow better intestinal health and general health status, thereby leading to improved growth performance.
  • Isolation, culture, and characterization of chicken intestinal epithelial cells

    Enterocytes exert an absorptive and protective function in the intestine, and they encounter many different challenging factors such as feed, bacteria, and parasites. An intestinal epithelial in vitro model can help to understand how enterocytes are affected by these factors and contribute to the development of strategies against pathogens.
  • The biological effects of microencapsulated organic acids and botanicals induce tissue-specific and dose-dependent changes to the Gallus gallus microbiota

    Microencapsulated organic acids and botanicals have the potential to develop into important tools for the poultry industry. A blend of organic acids and botanicals (AviPlus®P) has previously shown to reduce Salmonella and Campylobacter in chickens; however, changes to the microbiota of the jejunum and ileum have not been evaluated.
