“…in dairy cows, resulting in enhanced performance and economic benefits. For example, NE costs the poultry industry close to $2 billion/year worldwide, and antibiotic-resistant strains of C. perfringens from animal origin have been on the continuous rise. , The increasing AMR in animals and its potential threat to human health led to the ban of using antibiotics as growth promoters in livestock production by the European Union in 2006 and to the restriction of antibiotic use in animals in both Canada and the United States of America.…”

Antimicrobial resistance is among the most urgent global challenges facing sustainable animal production systems. The use of antibiotics as growth promoters and for infectious disease prevention in intensive animal-farming practices has translated into the selection and spread of antimicrobial resistance genes in an unprecedented fashion. Several multiresistant bacterial strains have been isolated from food-producing animals, thus constituting an alarming food-safety issue. Many industrial byproducts with potential antimicrobial properties are currently being investigated to identify empirical and affordable solutions/alternatives that can potentially be used in feed for animals. Grape pomace is among such byproducts that gained the attention as a result of its low cost, abundance, and, most importantly, its bioactive and antibacterial properties. This review discusses the recently reported studies with regard to exploring the use of grape pomace (and its extracts) in animal production to control pathogens, along with the promotion of beneficial bacterial species in the gut to ultimately alleviate antibacterial resistance. The review further summarizes realistic expectations connected with grape pomace usage and lists the still-to-beaddressed concerns about its application in animal agriculture.

“…Clostridium perfringens infection has been suspected as the cause of the disease but other factors have also been discussed 8,[10][11][12] . In Brazil, a study of 100 condemned chicken livers, reported a high incidence (21%) of multifocal heterophilic cholangiohepatitis 10 .…”

Cholangiohepatitis in chickens causes economic losses by liver condemnations at the slaughterhouse, as well as, poor productive performance in commercial farms. The purpose of this study was to describe the histopathologic changes due to cholangiohepatitis in slaughtered broiler chickens from 39 to 45 days of age, referred by the veterinary inspector from a commercial abattoir of southern Uruguay. In all the studied livers, the epithelium of the intrahepatic duct showed degeneration and necrosis with various inflammatory cells and fibrosis. The bacterial culture of Clostridium perfringens from fresh samples of these livers was negative and Gram-positive bacteria and PAS-positive fungi were not detected in the affected bile ducts.

C lostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is the pathogenic bacterium caused necrotic enteritis (NE) which is the most threatening problem in poultry sector. This work aimed to study the occurrence of Clostridium perfringens, find out its in-vitro antibiotic sensitivity pattern to various antimicrobial drugs and the experimentally efficacy of antibiotic (amoxicillin) alone or including a probiotic against necrotic enteritis NE. The occurrence rate of C. perfringens in examined 150 tissue samples was 38.6%. Antibiogram analysis revealed that the organisms are very susceptible to amoxicillin (74.1%) followed by bacitracin (70.6%). Almost of isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR). Toxinotyping of C. perfringens isolates by PCR showed that all tested isolates belonged to C.perfringens type A. In the experiment, one day-old Cobb broiler (N=120) were divided into six equal-sized groups. Group (A) was provided with balanced ration without treatment (control negative), group (B) was fed on balanced ration and infected with C. perfringens (control positive), group (C) was infected with C. perfringens and treated with selected antibiotic (amoxicillin) in drinking water for 3 consecutive days by dose of 1gm/ L 24 hours post infection, group (D) was received probiotic in the drinking water from one day-old and then infected with C. perfringens, group (E) was received probiotic in the drinking water from one day-old and then infected with C. perfringens then treated with selected antibiotic (amoxicillin) by the same dose 24 hours post infection and group (F) was infected with C. perfringens and treated with selected antibiotic (amoxicillin) and probiotic by the same dose 24 hours post infection. The results showed that birds received probiotic displayed
