Effects of supplementing diets with an
acidifier on performance parameters and visceral organ weights of broilers.
However, there has been no comparative study regarding the effect of Azolla and multivitamin or
acidifier on growth performance, profitability and lipid profiles of broiler chickens.
Better eggshell quality with a gut
acidifier. Poult.
The influence of an
Acidifier feed additive on biochemical parameters and immune response of broilers.
Liquid DL-MHA can be applied in diet as an
acidifier since it inhibited E.
Consistent to our findings, some researchers have shown positive effects with single or blends of dietary
acidifiers. For instance, supplementation of single
acidifier such as formic acid or sorbic acid improved growth rate and feed efficiency as reported by Partenen and Mroz (1999); Overland et al.

Experimental diets included: NC (negative control), basal diet without additive supplementation; PC (positive control), basal diet supplemented with 0.002% apramycin; T1, basal diet with 0.5% citric acid (citric acid 100%); and T2, basal diet with 0.4%
acidifier blend (17.2% formic acid, 4.1% propionic acid, 10.2% lactic acid, 9.5% phosphoric acid, Si[O.sub.2] 34.0%).
Four dietary treatments consisted of a negative control (basal diet, designated as "control"), positive control (Zn-bacitracin, designated as "Antibiotic"), mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) (Bio-Mos[R], Alltech Inc., USA), and MOS + (Acid-Pak 4-way, Alltech Inc., USA, designated as "
acidifier").
(2004), it was stated that early exposure to dietary
acidifier might cause an adaptation to
acidifier in birds and reduce the subsequent therapeutic activity of
acidifier.
