“…To optimize the growth potential of modern broilers in the commercial farms, supplementing the commercial broiler feeds with growth promoters [ 2 ], probiotics [ 3 ], minerals and vitamins [ 4 - 6 ], green foliage/leaf meals [ 7 ], exogenous enzymes [ 8 ], or essential amino acids [ 9 ] has been conducted. With regard to probiotics, vitamins, and minerals, these components have been known to exert an immune-enhancing effect on poultry [ 10 , 11 ]. Hence, supplementation of commercial broiler feeds with probiotics in combination with vitamins and minerals seemed to be beneficial not only for better growth but also for health of broiler chicks on the commercial farms.…”

Aim:The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of supplementation of multistrain probiotic preparation in combination with vitamins and minerals to the broiler chicken diets on their growth performance, hematological parameters, and carcass traits.Materials and Methods:Two hundred and eighty-eight Lohmann 1-day-old broiler chicks were randomly allocated to four groups, i.e., control (without additional supplementation) and three experimental treatments where basal diet was enriched by 0.1%, 0.5%, or 1% of multistrain probiotic preparation in combination with vitamins and minerals, respectively. Blood sampling was conducted on day 28, while the selected organs and eviscerated carcasses were collected on day 42.Results:Dietary supplementation did not affect (p>0.05) the final body weight, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio of broilers. Supplementation by 0.1% and 0.5% of multistrain probiotic preparation in combination with vitamins and minerals reduced (p≤0.05) heart relative weight of broilers. Dietary supplementation tended (p=0.07) to increase the relative weight of ileum and pancreas of broilers. Supplemented birds had lower (p≤0.05) numbers of leukocytes and eosinophils compared to unsupplemented birds. There were tendencies that supplementation of multistrain probiotics in combination with vitamins and minerals resulted in lower (p=0.07) counts of lymphocytes and heterophils when compared with no supplementation. Supplementation by 0.5% of multistrain probiotics in combination with vitamins and minerals resulted in lower (p≤0.05) serum concentration of uric acid when compared with control. There was no significant effect of dietary supplementation on carcass traits, pH, and drip loss of broiler breast muscles.Conclusion:Dietary supplementation of commercial broiler feeds with 0.5% of multistrain probiotic preparation in combination with vitamins and minerals was potential to improve digestive functions and physiological status of broiler chickens.

“…The combination of vitamins (A, D3, E, B-group water-soluble vitamins), minerals (selenium) and amino acids have a great role in immune modulation and stimulating humoral and cellular immunity and also most effective mechanism to tackle vaccine [18,39].…”

“…it is better to vaccinate the birds prior to the incidence of the disease so that the birds develop the required amount of antibody titration. For instance, vaccination against infectious bronchitis and avian influenza should be given before winter period since the outbreak of diseases are commonly occurs in birds during winter [18,21]. Besides, biosecurity is the most important and crucial component of any poultry outbreak prevention and control strategy and should be maintained at a high level to complement vaccine use.…”

Vaccines and Vaccination programs may be considered as insurance against different infectious diseases. A successful vaccination program is dependent on many factors including vaccine handling, quality, and nature of the vaccine, use of local antigens, and immunogenic response inside the body of the bird and following the Manufacturer's instructions. The potential threat of disease outbreaks even in vaccinated flocks cannot be avoided completely, due to vaccine failures. Vaccine failure could be because of host factors such as stress, interference with maternally derived antibodies, lack of booster doses, and vaccination for immunosuppressed flocks, use of inappropriate dosage and route and untimely vaccination schedule. Moreover, it could also be due to antigen factors such as improper storage, use of expired vaccine and improper vaccine formulation. However, these factors can be avoided by proper vaccine storage, use of an adjuvant, none use of expired vaccines, use of stabilizers, practicing proper vaccination schedule, preparing flocks for vaccination, supplementation of vitamins and minerals and following vaccine manufacturer's guideline. Therefore, chicken farmers should follow stick biosecurity to prevent the outbreaks and vaccine manufacturers guidelines for storage, timing, and due dates, consult veterinarians before any vaccine administration and monitor the health status of chickens before vaccine administration.

Salmonella is one of the most hazardous diseases in poultry farms. Markedly, the application of active immunostimulants is illustrated as potential protective agents against infection in poultry farms. Thus, this work aimed to explore inter-and intra-breed variation in response to acute and subchronic Salmonella enteritidis infection in two-layer breeds (one commercial [Hy-line strain] and another native [Fayoumi breed]). Besides exploring the possible protective effect of a commercial immune modulator (STIMU-LAN) on the two breeds during the acute infection. The ELISA antibody titer in subchronic infections and the expression analysis of some selected genes (IL-1β, LITAF, TGF-β, HSP90 and HSP70) are used as the clinical signs for acute infections to assess the possible protective role of a commercial immunomodulator (STIMULAN). Five groups were used during the acute experiment: G1-control; G2a-susceptible; G2bresistant birds, G3-which received STIMULAN and G4-which received the infection + STIMULAN. The groups with sub-chronic infections include G1 (control), G2 (high antibody titer) and G3 (low antibody titer). The gene expressions among the susceptible birds during acute infection of both breeds are nearly similar. They only differ in the expression of HSP90 in the Fayoumi breed. However, the resistant birds vary in their gene expression profile. The effect of STIMULAN as a feed additive in noninfected birds was an up-regulation of LITAF, TGF-β, HSP90 in Fayoumi. Moreover, a powerful stimulatory role was observed when both breeds were infected. Both breeds were asymptomatic during the sub-chronic infection. Although, the increased expression of inflammatory-related genes in the Hy-line was considered as an indication of infection persistence. Fayoumi is capable of immune clearance for this infection. Thus, the Fayoumi breed is more resistant to acute Salmonella infection. HSP90 plays a vital role in its resistance. We recommend the use of STIMULAN as an immunomodulator during Salmonella infection.
