Abstract:Background
Colibacillosis is one of the broilers’ most dominant bacterial diseases, either as a primary or a secondary infection. As E. coli antimicrobial drug resistance is rising; there is a need to develop new approaches to its control. In light of this, a comparative study of the in-vitro antibacterial activity of Arabic gum stabilized zinc and copper nanoparticles (AG-ZnNPs and AG-CuNPs) against PCR-identified field avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) strains and virulence genes (ibeA, hlyA, i… Show more
“…ALT activity of birds of group fed with plant extract alone was at par with control group showing no adverse effect of ANE on liver suggesting the hepatoprotective and cardioprotective potential of ANE against bacterial infection. The higher values of serum creatinine levels in birds of plain infection group are in agreement with the studies conducted by Ibrahim et al (2022) [ 37 ] and El-Shenawy et al (2023) [ 38 ].…”
