The effect of dietary caprylic acid on bacterial shedding in chickens experimentally infected with Salmonella Enteritidis
Original language description
The effect of caprylic acid against salmonellas was investigated in broiler chickens. Caprylic acid added to the feed of broiler chickens at 2.5 g/kg, experimentally contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis, significantly decreased counts of salmonellasin crop and caecum. The effect of caprylic acid in the crop contents was more pronounced than in the caecum. It can be concluded that caprylic acid is able to reduce numbers of salmonellas in the gastrointestinal tract of chickens and has a potential toimprove health status of infected animals.
