Broiler chicks were spray treated on the day of hatch with titrated dosages (10(6), 10(7), or 10(8) anaerobic CFU) of a characterized competitive exclusion culture (CF3) and challenged orally on day 3 with 10(4) CFU of Salmonella typhimurium. On day 10, cecal contents from control and CF3-treated chicks were cultured for S. typhimurium to determine the minimal efficacious dosage of the CF3 culture. The experiment was repeated in three replicated trials. Resistance to Salmonella cecal colonization was dosage related and progressively enhanced at the 10(7)- and 10(8)-CFU dosages compared with the 10(6)-CFU dosage. The 10(7)-CFU dosage was selected as the minimal effective dosage and evaluated for efficacy during a 43-day broiler growout study. Six hundred broilers were spray treated on the day of hatch and compared with 600 controls. One-half of the control and CF3-treated birds were challenged orally on day 3 with 10(4) CFU of S. typhimurium and designated "seeders." The remaining unchallenged birds were designated "contacts." Compared with the controls, the recovery of Salmonella cells from the ceca of the CF3-treated broilers was significantly decreased (P < 0.01) in the challenged seeders on days 21 and 43 of growout. Salmonella contamination of floor pen litter was significantly reduced (P < 0.05) in pens of CF3-treated birds compared with controls. The transmission of Salmonella cells from seeder to contact birds in the same pens was decreased significantly (P < 0.01). The results indicated that treatment of broiler chicks on the day of hatch with the 10(7)-CFU dosage of CF3 culture effectively increased resistance to S. typhimurium challenge during growout to market age.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
