A new peer-review article on the interest of
Selected saponins
Nor-Feed, as a leading specialist of botanicals for animal nutrition, is glad to share a new peer-review article on the interest of selected saponins for coccidiosis, published in the journal Frontiers in Veterinary science. In the plant kingdom, there are more than 10 000 saponins with a huge diversity, and a few selected are efficient solutions for coccidial risk management.
Effects of supplementing broiler chickens with
Selected saponins
This study assessed the effects of supplementing broiler chickens with a commercial blend of specific saponins-rich plants under an experimental Eimeria challenge and compared their effects to monensin supplementation. Experimental infestation reduced in a significant way the final body weight in infested broilers compared to noninfested broilers. This loss was numerically compensated by specific saponins-rich plants and Monensin.
