Popis: | Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of different competitive exclusion (CE) cultures on the concentration of cecal propionic acid in 3-day-old broiler chicks, and the correlation between cecal propionic acid concentration and protection againstSalmonellacolonization. CE cultures that significantly (P 0.05) increase cecal propionic acid concentrations in 3-day-old chicks failed to protect (P > 0.05) against cecalSalmonellacolonization in 10-day-old chicks compared with untreated controls. A significant (P |
