The Effects of Some Alternative Feed Additives for Antibiotic Growth Promoters on the Performance and Gut Microflora of Broiler Chicks
(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2003) Ceylan, N; Çiftçi, I; Ilhan, Z
In this research, the effects of some alternative feed additives for antibiotic growth promoters on performance and gut microflora were examined using 500, one-day-old Ross 508 broiler chicks. Commercial corn-soy-based broiler starter and finisher diets were formulated as basal diets for control treatment. Basal diets were supplemented with an antibiotic growth promoter, a probiotic, a prebiotic (mannan oligosaccharide) and a humic-acid-based mixture, respectively. It total, five dietary treatments were employed in the experiment. Live weight, weight gain and feed consumption values were not affected significantly by dietary treatments throughout the experiment (P > 0,05). However, chicks which received diets supplemented with growth promoter, prebiotic, probiotic and humic-acid-based mixture had better feed conversion than the control group in both the 4-6 and 0-6 week periods (P < 0.05). Mortality rate, hot carcass yield, and feed cost for kg live weight gain did not show any significant differences among the groups (P > 0.05). Cut microorganism growth was determined in the 2(nd) and 6(th) weeks of age by counting the number of aerobic bacteria, total yeast, coliform, E. coli and Entereccoccus. For both periods, no significant differences among the groups were obtained for those microorganisms. Salmonella and Campylobacter were not isolated in any of the samples. In conclusion, prebiotic (mannan oligosccaride), humic-acid-based mixture and probiotic have the potential to be an alternative to antibiotic growth promoters in broiler diets.
Report of Eight Infants With Acute Infantile Hemorrhagic Edema and Review of the Literature
(Japanese dermatolgical Assoc, 2002) Çaksen, H; Odabas, D; Kösem, M; Arslan, S; Öner, AF; Atas, B; Ceylan, N
Acute infantile hemorrhagic edema (AIHE) is a cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis, clinically characterized by the symptom triad of fever, large purpuric skin lesions, and edema. The clinical picture has a violent onset, a short benign course, and spontaneous complete recovery. In this article, we present eight patients who were admitted with rashes on the skin and edema on the eyelids and extremities, and were diagnosed with AIHE according to their clinical and histopathological features (immunohistological study was also performed in three of them). Our purpose was to emphasize that, aside from Henoch-Schonlein purpura, meningococcemia, septicemia, and purpura fulminans, AIHE benign disorder should also he considered in the differential diagnosis to determine the clinical course and treatment protocol in patients with purpuric rashes.
