“…Antibiotic supplementation of chicken diets increased yolk biotin and folic acid (Waibel et al, 1952), improved lysine absorption and protein utilization Draper, 1958), improved the absorption of fatty acids (Young et al, 1963), and increased the utilization of calcium and phosphorus (Mikolajcik and Hamdam, 1975;Lindblad et al, 1952).…”

Oral inoculation with Lactobacillus acidophilus and dietary supplementation with antibiotics were compared in broiler chicks fed various levels of biotin to determine their effect on the biotin status of the chicks. Lactobacillus acidophilus inoculation of broiler chickens fed a diet marginally deficient in biotin (56 micrograms/kg) caused a significant decrease (P less than .01) in their liver biotin content from 1596 to 931 ng/g. The decrease biotin status was confirmed by significant increases (P less than .01) in 16:1 and 18:1 plasma fatty acids and significant decreases (P less than .01) in 18:0 and 20:4 omega 6 plasma fatty acids. These alterations in fatty acids were only observed when the samples were taken from chickens in the fed condition. Supplementation with Lactobacillus caused an increased incidence of foot dermatitis and decreased growth of chickens, presumably by competing with the chicken for dietary biotin. No significant changes were noted with antibiotic feeding.

“…Gabuten and Shaffner (1954) found that penicillin increased blood calcium levels in adult fowl. Lindblad et al (1952) reported that dietary aureomycin increased the efficiency of utilization of calcium and phosphorus in young chicks. The present research indicates that the trace mineral, arsenic, can be added to the major minerals in their increased availability in the presence of antibiotics.…”

“…To the best of our knowledge there is no published data on the microbial population of various parts of the intestinal tract of poultry. For example, Lindblad et al (1952) found that increasing calcium and phosphorus levels, from deficient to adequate, caused an increase in aerobic, anaerobic, aciduric, proteolytic, lactobacilli and coliform counts. In view of the findings that the greatest effect of the antibiotics in promoting growth occurs at an early age, (McGinnis, 1950;MacGregor et al, 1952;Heuser and Norris, 1952;and others) and that the response gradually at West Virginia University, Health Science Libraryy on June 25, 2015 http://ps.oxfordjournals.org/ Downloaded from disappears with age, it seems probable that changes in microbial populations as a result of antibiotic administration are not constant but change with time and /or age.…”

“…(1950) reported that penicillin feeding resulted in significant elevation of liver vitamin A and total serum carotenoids. Lindblad et al (1952) concluded that aureomycin improved the utilization of calcium and phosphorus. On the other hand, Coates et al (1952 b) found that penicillin only raised the liver stores of vitamin A when it accelerated growth.…”
