Uterine balloon volume shifts using a free-flow uterine balloon in the management of refractory postpartum haemorrhage. Open
Background. Uterine balloon tamponade (UBT) is used as part of the post partum haemorrhage (PPH) algorithm for the treatment of PPH. Objectives. The free-flow Ellavi uterine balloon controls the pressure in the uterine balloon by adjusting…

Characterization of growth patterns and carcass characteristics of male and female broilers from four commercial strains fed high or low density diets Open
Over the last few decades, the poultry industry has seen the emergence of various market segments that are beneficial for rearing various flock sizes. Two concurrent experiments consisting of 1,200 broilers each were conducted to evaluate …

Evaluation of a threonine fermentation product as a digestible threonine source in broilers Open
In the present experiment, a Thr fermentation product (FP) (75% minimum digestible Thr) was evaluated as a replacement for crystalline L-Thr (98.5% minimum digestible Thr) as a source of digestible Thr and other nutrients to support broile…

Failure of excess leucine to impact live performance and carcass traits in male and female Cobb MV × 500 broilers during a 15- to 32-day grower period Open
Modern broiler diets may contain excess levels of leucine due to the increased level of this amino acid in cereal grains. Excessive levels of leucine have previously been shown to negatively influence broiler performance due to branched-ch…

Performance and preference of broilers provided dual light warmth Open
SUMMARY: The present studies evaluated the use of 2 common poultry specific Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) of differing light warmth (2,700 K and 5,000 K). Additionally, the studies evaluated the effects of providing a choice between LED bul…

Cobb 700 response to increasing lysine by growth phase Open
Summary: The Cobb MV × Cobb 700 male broiler was evaluated for BW and feed conversion ratio (FCR) when fed diets of increasing levels of digestible lysine (Lys) and ME within each growing phase (0–12 D, 12–26 D, 26–35 D, and 35–55 D). Male…

Impact of Hydrogen Peroxide Treatment on Environmental <i>Escherichia coli</i> Strains Open
The impact of three hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentrations (250, 300 and 350 mg.L-1) at 30, 60, 90 and 120 min time intervals was determined on environmental and ATCC reference E. coli strains (n=11). Variation between strains was evident…
