Effects of dietary Fibrafid as phytogenic supplementation in standard and nutrient-reduced diets on breast meat quality, carcass traits, histopathology, and feed efficiency in heat-stressed broilers

This research tested a plant-based feed additive called Fibrafid in broiler chickens raised in hot conditions. When included at 0.25% in their diet, Fibrafid improved meat quality by increasing its ability to retain moisture and enhancing tenderness, while also supporting growth even when using lower-nutrition diets. The additive maintained healthy intestines and improved feed efficiency, offering a practical and sustainable solution for poultry farmers in hot climates.

Individual and Combined Effect of Zinc-L-Selenomethionine Complex with Mannan-Oligosaccharide on Growth Performance, Carcass Characteristics, Gut Development and Immune Response in Broilers

This study tested whether combining organic selenium and a prebiotic from yeast could improve broiler chicken health without using antibiotics. The researchers fed different groups of chickens either selenium alone, the prebiotic alone, or combinations of both at different levels over 35 days. They found that the combination of higher selenium levels with the prebiotic worked best for improving meat quality, immune system strength and gut health, making it a promising natural alternative to growth-promoting antibiotics in chicken farming.
