Effects of an Isoquinoline Alkaloids Blend on the Expression of Genes Relevant for Antioxidant Capacity, Barrier Integrity and Inflammation Along the Broiler Gut
1 Introduction In animals, gut health is essential for their general health status and their productivity. Gut health is defined as the absence and prevention of disease along the intestine so that the animal will have the ability to perform its physiological functions and to deal effectively with exogenous and endogenous stressors (Kogut and Arsenault 2016).
Phytobiotics: Sit Back & Relax - Isoquinoline Alkaloids Have A Positive Impact On Stress
Phytobiotics: Sit Back & Relax - Isoquinoline Alkaloids Have A Positive Impact On Stress Plant-derived isoquinoline alkaloids have been shown to have a positive impact on gut integrity due to ‑‑ their anti-inflammatory properties. Pigs are exposed to several stressors, ranging from farrowing to weaning and transportation. As stress, animal welfare and food safety are linked, nutritional interventions targeting these issues make a powerful tool.
El efecto de los alcaloides isoquinolínicos sobre el estrés térmico en pollos
Las razas avícolas modernas, altamente productivas, son susceptibles al estrés térmico. Esto, combinado con el aumento de las temperaturas en todo el mundo, representa un reto para el sector avícola. Las soluciones nutricionales de origen vegetal ofrecen la oportunidad de estabilizar a los pollos de engorde durante los periodos de estrés térmico.
Enteritis necrótica en aves
¿Cuál es el problema? Se estima que la enteritis necrótica (NE) inducida por Clostridium perfringens le cuesta a la industria avícola entre 5 y 6 mil millones de dólares a nivel mundial. Aunque los casos clínicos de EN no se ven con demasiada frecuencia, los rebaños afectados mostraron una mortalidad de hasta el 30%. Sin embargo, los principales costos resultan de la forma subclínica de EN. Skinner et al.

This is a quick guide to some of the terms used in the industry and how to interpret them. The trend towards a reduction of antibiotics use in food producing animals is obvious and this trend started, in most countries, some years ago already.
