“…In 17 studies in chickens for fattening, dietary chlortetracycline supplementation at concentrations ranging from 10 to 930 mg/kg feed improved growth performance of chickens for fattening ( € Ur € us ßan and B € ol € ukbas ßı (2017), 10 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Chen et al (2018), 40 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Qu et al (2018), Hong et al (2019), Li et al (2019aLi et al ( , 2020, 50 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Begin (1971), 50, 100 and 200 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Stutz and Lawton (1984), 55 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Han et al (2012), Hosseini and Meimandipour (2018) and Li et al (2007), 80 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed from day 1 to day 21 of age and then 50 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed from day 22 to day 42 of age; Alvares et al (1964), 100 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Dong et al (2011), Aguirre et al (2015) and Liao et al (2015), 150 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Bagal et al (2016), 335 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed; Bostami et al (2016), 1,000 mg chlortetracycline hydrochloride/kg feed, corresponding to 930 mg chlortetracycline/kg feed). Moreover, two studies out of 17 presented some limitations: in the study of Alvares et al (1964), the positive effect of dietary chlortetracycline supplementation was observed in feed containing sucrose but not in feed containing starch or dextrose; in the study of Liao et al (2015), the positive effect of dietary chlortetracycline supplementation was observed only on weight gain from 22 to 42 days of age.…”
