This means that, during the animal’s growth in intensive production systems, the liver is potentially exposed to sustaining the damage caused by a wide variety of harmful substances, deriving from both the different metabolic processes (e.g. reactive oxygen species), and other external ones external to the organism itself (xenobiotic).2,3 As a result, under these conditions, the liver activity can be a limiting productivity factor.

Liquid liver protectors are added to drinking water and are generally used for healing purposes, as the poultry affected by liver problems normally significantly reduce their feed intake, while that is not the case with liquids.

The chickens were weighed individually on days 20, 31 and 42, and their mortality was recorded daily. The feed intake and feed conversion ratio were measured on days 31 and 42. Blood tests and autopsies were also conducted (liver weight) on day 42 (Table 1). At the end of the study, blood samples were taken in order to evaluate differences between treatments regarding two serum markers of liver inflammation; Aspartate transaminase (AST) and Alkaline phosphatase (ALP). For the statistical study, an alpha risk of 5% was chosen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>As shown in the results collected in Table 1, the addition of oxidised soya oil and high levels of ferrous sulphate in feed slightly, though not significantly, lowered growth yield. Supplementing with 250 g of multi-herb blend per tonne of feed significantly improved feed conversion and body weight during the intoxication stage (days 20 to 31), which could indicate that this multi-herb blend allowed the liver to use the oxidised soya oil as a source of energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Conclusion\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Optimisation in the use of feedstuffs and the increase in productivity are two of the most important aspects in the poultry industry. Due to the liver’s importance in digestion, absorption and metabolising of nutrients, the use of liver protectors that stimulate its ability to eliminate harmful substances, such as mycotoxins, heavy metals, pesticides, etc., and which allow the transportation and suitable use of nutrients to ensure an adequate valuation of the diet, will entail an improvement in the feed conversion ratio, in the efficiency of the development and in the production performance, while contributing toward maximising return on investment in the feed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>References\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>1.

Causes of intoxication by anticoccidial compounds\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Improper use or incorrect dosing of these compounds can lead to animal intoxication, affecting their development and performance (Novilla, 1992; Frigg et al., 1983). Causes include the inappropriate selection of medication for the production phase or undesirable interactions with other medications.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>2. Use of ionophores and nicarbazin\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Ionophore anticoccidials are widely used but require caution, as improper dosing can result in toxicity. (Novilla, 1992). Nicarbazin is widely used and often included in rotation programs with other products to reduce adverse effects (Ryley & Betts, 1973; Mathis & McDougald, 1982).\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>3. Development of resistance by coccidia\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Resistance occurs when a medication is used repeatedly without rotation with other products. (Vertommen & Peek, 1994). This is a common issue in the industry, and the rotation of anticoccidials is recommended to reduce the risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>4. Loss of sensitivity to the medication\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Resistance develops when continuous administration or prolonged exposure to the same anticoccidial makes coccidia less sensitive to the medication (Ruff, 1993). This highlights the importance of the conscious and diversified use of these products.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>5. Farm conditions and risks for broilers\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Sanitary and management conditions on farms directly affect bird health and the effectiveness of medications (Graat et al., 1996; Henken, 1994). In farms with hygiene issues, the risk of subclinical coccidiosis is high, silently affecting bird performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch3>\u003Cstrong>Conclusion\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh3>\u003Cp>In this context, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of \u003Cstrong>anticoccidial products\u003C\u002Fstrong>, their molecules, mechanisms of action, levels of toxicity, the different species of \u003Cstrong>\u003Cem>Eimeria\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fstrong>, and the correct way to use them, ensuring results without compromising animal performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>To support this analysis in practice, you can rely on Nuproxa technical support.
