Multi-strain bacterin vaccine demonstrates broad protection against spotty liver disease

Recently, Campylobacter hepaticus was identified as the causative agent for chicken spotty liver disease (SLD), an illness which manifests as acute infectious hepatitis and causes a significant drop in egg production and high mortality in layer chickens. Researchers from Iowa State University, led by Orhan Sahin, DVM, PhD, are studying Campylobacter bacterins in the control of SLD.

Researchers exploring sale of uncontaminated table eggs from HPAI-positive farms

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on October 9, 2023

A University of Minnesota research team is exploring options for moving uninfected eggs from farms where highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has been diagnosed and making them available to consumers. 

Vaccination of US poultry flocks explored as HPAI becomes more widespread, infectious

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on October 6, 2023

Highly pathogenic avian influenza vaccination

Reality is sinking in. HPAI in the US is likely here to stay, and vaccination may be an option for long-term control, reported David Suarez, DVM, PhD, US National Poultry Research Center. 

Researchers evaluate effects of variable-light intensity programs on broiler welfare

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on October 3, 2023

Light intensity has been shown to affect the activity of birds, but most studies have focused on constant light intensities to determine their effect on welfare.

UGA researcher assesses use of metals on resistance, virulence of APEC

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC)

Colibacillosis resulting from E. coli is arguably one of the major causes of morbidity, mortality and carcass loss to the poultry production industry worldwide, putting at risk one of the cheapest and most valuable sources of protein.

Environmental factors have more sway in broilers’ microbiome than antibiotics

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on October 2, 2023

Poultry microbiome

Environmental factors appear to have a bigger impact on the microbiome found in the digestive system of commercial broiler chickens than the use of antibiotic feed additives, according to a Canadian study.

Fowl cholera vaccination

Developing a thorough vaccination strategy for fowl cholera — one that includes selecting the right vaccine strain for the field challenge that the birds are facing and proper vaccine administration — is critical when managing this bacterial disease.

Study suggests copper link to regional rise in broiler gizzard lesions

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on September 27, 2023

Levels of copper in broiler diets may be contributing to an increased incidence of gizzard lesions in the southeastern US.

NC State researcher evaluates competitive inhibition of pathogenic Enterococcus cecorum in broilers

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on September 22, 2023

Pathogenic Enterococcus cecorum continues to plague the broiler industry, causing mortality from pericarditis and sepsis early in the growing period and lameness and paralysis late in the growing period.

Selecting for water efficiency offers promise in broilers

sspiegel0120@gmail.com on September 19, 2023

Selecting broilers for water-conversion ratio has no effect on other economically important traits, potentially paving the way for a route to greater sustainability in production.

Feeder management: A vital part of broiler welfare

Feed is a vital part of the poultry industry, representing around 60-70% of the total costs. However, even the best feed formulation cannot deliver results if the birds cannot access it readily. Anusha Gautam and Bethany Baker-Cook, PhD, Auburn University, discuss the right type of feeders to select for each of the production phases, appropriate feeder spacing, proper feeder height, and the overall feeder arrangement.
