“…Some commonly used additives that improve growth rate or improve utilization of broiler feeds include bacitracin, in the form of either zinc bacitracin or bacitracin methylene disalicylate (Bird, 1968;Coates and Harrision, 1969;Creek and Schumaier, I960;Damron et al, 1975;Fernandez et al, 1973;Heuser and Norris, 1952;Matterson and Singsen, 1951;Stutz et al, 1983), and 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenylarsonic acid [roxarsone (Abbott et al, 1954;Bird et al, 1949;Carlson et al, 1954;Frost, 1953;Libby et al, 1955;Milligan et al, 1955;Morehouse, 1949;Morehouse and Mayfield, 1946;Waldroup et al, 1984;West, 1956;Wharton and Fritz, 1953)]. Damron et al (1975) reported that there was no interaction between zinc bacitracin and roxarsone in regard to body weight gains or feed utilization by broilers.…”

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the response of broiler chickens to addition of bacitracin methylene disalicylate (BMD) to diets containing salinomycin. In each experiment, five tests were conducted at different locations. In Experiment 1, all diets contained 66 mg salinomycin/kg of diet for the first 42 days and either 0 or 33 mg BMD/kg of diet for the entire 49-day feeding period. In Experiment 2, all diets contained 66 mg salinomycin and 50 mg roxarsone/kg of diet for the first 42 days and either 0, 11, 33, or 55 mg BMD/kg of diet for the entire 49-day feeding period. In Experiment 1, addition of 33 mg BMD/kg of diet significantly (P less than .05) improved body weights and feed utilization. Results were similar in all five tests. In Experiment 2, addition of 11, 33, or 55 mg BMD/kg of diet significantly (P less than .05) increased body weights. In one location the addition of 55 mg BMD/kg of diet resulted in no significant difference in body weight compared with those fed the unsupplemented diet, but in all other locations the response was similar. Addition of 33 or 55 mg BMD/kg of diet resulted in improved (P less than .05) feed utilization when all tests were combined. Feed utilization was not improved in all locations by the addition of BMD.

“…Studies with 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenylarsonic acid and p-aminophenylarsonic acid have shown that the inclusion of 50-100 p.p.m. in the diet of growing chicks or turkeys will frequently produce a significant increase in rate of growth and may be associated with improved feed conversion efficiency and carcass quality (Abbott, Bird & Cravens, 1954;Milligan, Wilcke, Marr & Bethke, 1955;Pepper & Slinger, 1955;West, 1956). Levels as high as 500 p.p.m.…”

“…Levels as high as 500 p.p.m. have been used without depressing rate of growth (Abbott et al 1954). Administration to laying birds has, on some occasions, resulted in improved egg production and feed conversion efficiency (Price, Stelzner, Reid & Couch, 1956;Thornton & Moreng, 1958).…”

“…Because of its low toxicity p-arsanilic acid has been widely incorporated as a feed additive since 1950. Several reports are available regarding the effect of concentrations of these drugs on pigmentation, growth, seleniumpoisoning symptoms in pigs (Whalstrom and Olson, 1959), symptoms of thiamine deficiency (Abbott et al, 1954), egg production, and hatchability (Moore and coworkers, 1954). Also, it has been reported that p-arsanilic acid and its metabolites are retained to some extent in certain edible parts of meat (Calesnick et al, 1966;; .…”
