“…The literature on the effects of the OLP or oregano essential oil/extract on feed intake is contradictory. Consistent with the results of the present study, supplementing the diet with OLP or oregano essential oil/extract increased the feed intake in milk-fed calves (Tapki et al, 2020), broiler chickens (Ri et al, 2017), goats (Lei et al, 2018), and dairy cows (Bosco Stivanin et al, 2019). However, decreased feed intake or nonsignificant effects on intake were also reported (Bampidis et al, 2005;Chaves et al, 2008;Hristov et al, 2013;Kolling et al, 2016Kolling et al, , 2018Wu et al, 2021), indicating the need for further clarification of the conditions for the use of FSP or OLP in various animal species.…”

“…The beneficial effects of these plants have been ascribed to their bioactive components with appetite stimulant properties mediated by essential oils, mainly trans-anethole in fennel (Saeedi et al, 2017;Hajalizadeh et al, 2019;Kargar et al, 2021) and carvacrol in oregano (Lei et al, 2018;Bosco Stivanin et al, 2019;Tapki et al, 2020), immune enhancing activity (Hashemipour et al, 2013;Badgujar et al, 2014), hepato-protective effects, hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects, and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential (due to compounds such as essential oils, flavonoids, phenolic acids, and others), antimicrobial properties (due to oleic acid, linoleic acid, 1,3-benzenediol, undecanal, 2,4-undecadienal, and 5-hydroxy-furanocoumarin in fennel and carvacrol in oregano; Badgujar et al, 2014;Hashemipour et al, 2013;Ri et al, 2017), and modulation of the digestive processes (Hashemipour et al, 2013;Saeedi et al, 2017;Wu et al, 2021).…”

dence interval = 1.03-2.05), and diarrhea (odds ratio = 1.47 and confidence interval = 1.11-1.97 and odds ratio = 1.49 and confidence interval = 1.07-2.08) compared with those receiving FSP or OLP; with the chance of BRD being lower in FSP-(but not OLP-) supplemented versus CON animals (odds ratio = 1.59 and confidence interval = 1.13-2.23). As compared with OLP and CON groups, FSP treatment resulted in shorter days with elevated rectal temperature and general appearance. Supplementing FSP or OLP decreased the duration of diarrhea and BRD but not their frequency compared with CON. Duration of diarrhea was not different between FSP-or OLP-supplemented calves but calves supplemented with FSP had shorter days with BRD compared with OLP-supplemented calves. Of the blood constituents measured on d 30, concentration of aspartate transferase was higher in FSP-(but not CON) versus OLP-supplemented calves, indicating a transient liver tissue damage or dysfunction which was subsequently ameliorated. At weaning, blood concentration of triglycerides was higher in FSP and OLP groups compared with CON group. Supplementation of the liquid feed with FSP or OLP, especially FSP, had beneficial effects on calf growth performance and health. Further experiments are warranted for optimizing the dosage and duration of feeding FSP or OLP as feed additives for dairy calves.

“…With these data, the authors demonstrated that these plant extracts are interesting alternatives for the control of aflatoxins in food. Finally, recent applications of oregano involve veterinary research, where extracts/infusions of this herb were used as food supplement in the diet of cows in the transition period [422] and to fight avian infectious bronchitis virus with very promising results in vitro.

Lamiaceae is one of the largest families of flowering plants comprising about 250 genera and over 7,000 species. Most of the plants of this family are aromatic and therefore important source of essential oils. Lamiaceae are widely used as culinary herbs and reported as medicinal plants in several folk traditions. In the Mediterranean area oregano, sage, rosemary, thyme and lavender stand out for geographical diffusion and variety of uses. The aim of this review is to provide recent data dealing with the phytochemical and pharmacological studies, and the more recent applications of the essential oils and the non‐volatile phytocomplexes. This literature survey suggests how the deeper understanding of biomolecular processes in the health and food sectors as per as pest control bioremediation of cultural heritage, or interaction with human microbiome, fields, leads to the rediscovery and new potential applications of well‐known plants.

“…Treatments were control (CON) -without plant extracts in the diet; oregano extract (OR) -addition of 10 g per cow or 0.056% of commercial oregano added to the diet (dry matter basis); green tea (GT)addition of 5 g per cow or 0.028% of green tea extract added to the diet; and mixture (MIX) -addition of 10 g per cow or 0.056% g of oregano extract plus 5 g per cow or 0.028% of green tea extract added to the diet. The extracts and doses used in the present study are consistent with the levels recommended by feed additive suppliers; they were also the same used in a previous study, which was conducted with dairy cows in the transition period (Stivanin et al, 2019;Vizzotto et al, 2021).…”

“…In ruminants, the majority of in vitro and in vivo trials emphasizes the potential of essential oils and polyphenols in modifying rumen fermentation, decreasing methane emissions (Kolling et al, 2018). Based on previous reports, the addition of oregano and green tea extracts is expected to improve the redox state (Paraskevakis et al, 2015) without negatively affecting behavior, feed intake, and milk production (Kolling et al, 2018;Stivanin et al, 2019;Vizzotto et al, 2021).…”

We aimed to evaluate the effects of the addition of oregano (Origanum vulgare) or green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) extracts (separately and associated) on feed intake, milk production, and hematological and antioxidant profiles of dairy cows. For that purpose, 16 Holstein and 16 Holstein-Gyr cows with 526.3±10.2 kg and within the first third of lactation were distributed according to a complete block design with measurements repeated in time. Treatments were control (CON), addition of 0.056% of oregano extract (OR), addition of 0.028% of green tea extract (GT), addition of a mixture of OR and GT extract (0.056% each) in the diet (MIX). Hematological and antioxidant profiles were monitored. Data were subjected to ANOVA, with block, treatment, days, and their interactions considered as fixed effects and animal and the residue as random effects. In Holstein cows, GT increased feed intake and milk yield compared with CON; in Holstein-Gyr crossbred cows, OR showed increased intake and GT increased milk yield compared with CON. Compared with CON, GT and OR decreased eosinophils concentration; OR showed the highest neutrophils concentration and neutrophils to leukocyte ratio. Compared with CON, OR presented increased catalase (CAT) activity, while GT increased the reduced glutathione concentration. The MIX treatment reduced CAT activity compared with OR, presented the lowest concentration of oxidized dichlorofluorescein in the erythrocytes (DCFER) and plasma (DCFPLA), and increased eosinophils concentration compared with GT and OR. Extracts differently affected feed intake and milk yield depending on genetic group. Feeding green tea and oregano extracts separately or associated distinctly affects the antioxidant indicators of lactating dairy cows.
