This study investigated the effects of brown seaweed extract nanoparticles on liver enzymes of broiler chickens. The drinking water of broiler chickens were treated with no additive (negative control), zinc bacitracin (0.25 g/L; positive control), brown seaweed extracts (2.50 or 5.00 g/L), or brown seaweed extracts nanoparticles (25 or 50 mL/L). The safety of water additives was observed through the serum concentration of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase:alanine aminotransferase ratio as the biochemical marker for hepatocellular injury. Results showed that aspartate aminotransferase was significantly elevated (P < 0.05) in the chicks treated with zinc bacitracin, when compared to the negative control. Meanwhile, both brown seaweed extracts and brown seaweed extracts nanoparticles did not alter aspartate aminotransferase compared to negative control. Water additives showed negligible effects on alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase:alanine aminotransferase ratio. It could be concluded that brown seaweed extract nanoparticles could be considered as a safe drinking water additive for broiler chickens.

“…Black cumin seed meal supplementation (BCSM) at levels of 40 and 60 g per kg diet significantly improve the body weight gain, FCR and survivability of commercial boilers compare with control and 20 g supplemented diet during a rearing period of 42 days [16]. In contrast, Cristo et al [17] reported that vegetable extract (carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde, and eugenol) from oregano, cinnamon, and cloves did not affect broiler chickens' productive performance or carcass yield. Finally, it is likely that the addition of diverse plant extracts, such as our test component AMN, may significantly boost bird's performance due to the bioactive compound present in a particular plant.…”

An experiment was conducted with 648-day-old Cobb 500 broiler chicks to evaluate the effects of Alquermold natural (AMN) on overall growth performance, carcass characteristics and inhibition of enteric bacterial growth of commercial broilers. The birds were randomly assigned to four different treatments: T0 (Control), T1 (0.5 g/kg AMN), T2 (1.0 g/kg AMN) and T3 (1.0 g/kg Mold Inhibitor (MI)), respectively. They were reared for up to 28 days. At the end of experiment, the birds’ growth performances in terms of body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), survival, and meat production characteristics were recorded and calculated. Weekly fecal sample collection and microbiological count were performed to determine the bacterial load, specifically Escherichia coli and anaerobic bacteria in the broiler feces. The results showed that birds receiving 1.0 g/kg AMN had significantly higher BW and BWG (p0.01) than the control, 0.5 g/kg AMN, and MI groups. The FI and FCR of broilers were comparable in all treatment groups. There were no significant (p > 0.05) changes in meat yield parameters such as dressing percentage, neck, shank, drumstick, breast meat, thigh meat, and wing meat. However, when compared to the other dietary treatments, the bacterial load (E. coli and anaerobic bacteria) was significantly lower in the birds fed 1.0 g/kg AMN. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that feeding AMN at a rate of 1.0 g/kg may be considered for improving growth performance, maximizing feed utilization, and inhibiting bacterial load in the intestine of commercial broiler chickens.

“…The purpose of these alternative additives is to decrease mortality rate, keep healthy and provide better animal yield while protecting the environment and consumer health. A lot of research has been done to look for natural products with beneficial effects similar to those of growth promoters (Cristo et al, 2022). Using phytogenic and natural products in ruminant rations can change rumen microbial fermentation and influence animal performance (Farghaly et al, 2021).…”

After the prohibition of antibiotic usage to improve performance, the breeders have guided to natural resources for this purpose. Essential oils have many beneficial effects and they are ideal to use as a growth promoter feed additive in livestock. In our study for this reason, we used oregano essential oil (Origanum onites L.) in the treatment groups. Thirty Merino lambs (aged of 2.5 month and weighted average 30±0.1 kg) were housed in 45-day to determine the effects of oregano oil on the growth and biochemical metabolites. The main ration includes consisting of concentrate and alfalfa hay. In the control group oregano essential oil was not added. The second group (ORG 250) was supplemented with 250 mg/d oregano essential oil, third group (ORG 500) also were supplemented with 500 mg/d. Bloods were taken from 8 animals for each group in the initial and end of the study. Samples were collected into anticoagulant tubes and plasma were allocated into microtubes and stored until the analysis day. There were statistically differences in growth hormone (GH), total protein, triglyceride, AST concentrations in ORG 500 group at 45th day (p
