Neopterin and biopterin as biomarkers of immune system activity associated with crating in broiler chickens
Original language description
This study focused on an investigation of the effect of crating on plasma concentrations of neopterin and biopterin in broilers. The effects of two crating periods (2 h and 4 h) were monitored in Hubbard broilers (n = 90) aged 42 days. Immediately aftercrating, neopterin in both 2 h and 4 h broilers did not differ from the control, but 24 h later a decrease (P = 0.011) in plasma neopterin was found in 4 h broilers compared with the control. Plasma biopterin was higher (P { 0.001) in 4 h broilers than in the control immediately after the crating. The correlations were found for widely used indicators of acute and chronic stress in birds, i.e. plasma corticosterone concentrations (biopterin) and the heterophil to lymphocyte ratio (neopterin), respectively.
