Full TextAbstract
An attempt has been made to ascertain the effects of acid-binding capacity (ABC) and acidifiers in corn-soybean meal diet on gut microbiota, nutrient digestibility and productive variables of broilers. In a 3×2 factorial experiment, 3 levels of ABC (650, 800 and 950 mEq/kg) and 2 mixes of acidifiers (1: fumaric acid and sodium diacetate, 2: tartaric acid and calcium propionate) were assessed. Coliform population and digestibility of dry matter and organic matter did not change by experimental factors or their interactions. Combination of tartaric acid and sodium diacetate resulted in severe mortality in starter phase. The ABC3 (ABC at pH 3) at 800 mEq/kg of diet significantly increased the feed intake and body weight gain of broilers, but at the level of 650 mEq adversely affected on feed intake and .....
