“…Our results also corroborate with those of Endo and Nakano (1999), who reported that the addition of probiotics increased the linolenic acid content and the PUFA/SFA ratio of broiler meat due to a positive effect on the intestinal flora. Indeed, dietary supplementation with Yucca schidigera extract of broiler chickens improves antioxidant capacity (Sun et al, 2018). In laying hens, Alagawany, El-Hack, and El-Kholy (2016) reported that Yucca schidigera supplementation improved the antioxidant status of serum, while egg yolk fatty acids were modified by the addition of karaya saponins to the diet (Afrose, Hossain, Salma, Miah, & Tsujii, 2010).…”

“…Moreover, several studies on the plant extract, named Yucca schidigera, which is an important source of steroidal saponins and polyphenols, have shown that the use of this plant as feed supplement in poultry improves performance and litter quality (Sahoo, Kaur, Sethi, Sharma, & Chandra, 2015;Sun, Shi, Tong, & Yan, 2018), reduce production costs (Sariozkan et al, 2015), and control coccidian risk in broiler chickens (Djezzar, Benamirouche, Baazize-Ammi, Mohamed-Said, & Guetarni, 2014). However, to the best of our knowledge, little data are currently available on the effect of Yucca schidigera as feed supplement on broiler meat quality.…”

“…In addition to this, certain saponins and extracts from Y. schidigera have been proposed to improve the health conditions of aquatic organisms [93,94] as well as the immune response of broilers [95]. Moreover, when Y. schidigera extract is administered to ruminants, or horses, there is a reduction in the growth of protozoa and Gram-positive bacteria which are associated in some cases to colitis, and other processes leading to inflammatory diseases [96].…”

“…The glycocomponents can directly bind ammonia, while steroidal saponins have surface active properties, improve digestion, reduce emissions, and have an antiprotozoal effect. In relation to that, it has also been shown that Yucca schidigera in poultry improves feed conversion and production performance, lowers ammonia emissions and in-house and litter odors, and has antioxidant and immunomodulatory properties [15][16][17][18][19].…”
