"Improving gut health in poultry is as good for the novice as it is
for the experienced nutritionist...this book is a must for every
poultry nutritionist."Dr Ioannis Mavromichalis, Ariston Nutrition
Consulting International This collection summarises current
research on the composition and function of the gastrointestinal
tract in poultry, the factors that affect its function, and
nutritional strategies to optimise poultry nutrition, health and
environmental impact. Part 1 begins by summarising advances in
sequencing and omics technologies to understand gut function. It
then reviews our current understanding of the gut microbiota, the
development of the gut microbiome over the life of the bird, and
gut function in nutrient processing and immune response. The second
part of the book reviews what we know about factors affecting gut
function and health. Chapters cover gastrointestinal diseases, the
interaction between pathogens and the gut as well the impact of
antibiotics. The final group of chapters discuss current research
on the effectiveness of feed additives in optimising gut health,
including probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, antimicrobials,
essential oils and other botanicals as well as cereal grains. With
its distinguished editor and team of expert chapter authors, this
will be a standard reference for poultry scientists, poultry feed
manufacturers and the poultry farming community.
