IMMUNOMODULATOR AND NUTRITIONAL EFFECTS OF BIO-MOS
Keywords:
broilers chickens, probiotics, immunomodulator, nutritionalAbstract
The Bio-Mos product, foraged for 90 days to growing chicken vaccinated against
aviary infectious bursitis determined the stimulation of the immunological reactivity.
Significant values for antibodies titer growing were recorded for the secondary
immune response, thus demonstrating the tardily immunostimulator effect of BioMos. The product stimulates the chicken growing performance.
The 90 days chicken mean weight in the experimental group was 12.5% higher than
in the control group.
The Bio-Mos product reveals a protector effect on the intestinal mucosa, this aspect
being proved by the ascendant dynamic of the daily mean weight gain.
