After the urea was catalyzed by the urease on the enzymatic bacteria in the capillary, different electrodes were compared to measure the impedance of the catalysate and the screen-printed electrode with higher sensitivity and better stability was the most suitable.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/CP-690550.html  This impedance biosensor-based bacterial detection strategy was able to detect Salmonella as low as 102 CFU/mL in 2 h without complex operations. Compared to the gold standard culture method for practical screening of Salmonella in poultry supply chains, this proposed strategy had an accuracy of approximately 90% for 75 real poultry samples. The purpose of this study was to screen out the appropriate concentration of grape seed extract solution and study the effects of grape seed extract combined with modified atmosphere packaging on the physical and chemical properties of roasted chicken during storage at 4°C. Samples were stored in 3 different packages A (air packaging), M (modified atmosphere packaging, CO2/N2 = 40%/60%), and P (0.5% grape seed extract solution treatment combined with modified atmosphere packaging, CO2/N2 = 40%/60%). Microbiological analysis, pH, headspace composition, color, and lipid oxidation of roasted chicken were measured. The results showed that 0.5% is the suitable concentration of grape seed extract preservative for the storage of modified atmosphere packaged roast chicken. Compared with normal packaging (A) and single modified atmosphere packaging (M), 0.5% grape seed extract solution combined with modified atmosphere packaging (P) could effectively reduce the growth rate of total aerobic bacteria, Pseudomonas spp., mold, and yeast in roast chicken during low-temperature storage, reduce the lipid oxidation rate in roast chicken, and maintain the color stability of the product. This result could help the roast poultry processing industry to find more efficient ways to store and sell products. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an important threat to public health worldwide. Furthermore, different studies have demonstrated a close association between antibiotic use in animal production and AMR in humans. It is well known that it is necessary to reduce antibiotic administration in farms by finding effective alternative treatments, using more resistant breeds and improving animal welfare. However, to be able to assess the alternatives proposed, it is essential to study the epidemiology of AMR under production conditions. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate the AMR dynamic in 2 genetic poultry breeds during the growing period. The study was performed in 2 experimental poultry houses to simulate real production conditions, and no antibiotics were administered during the growing period. In addition, 2 poultry breeds were used, fast-growing and slow-growing. To evaluate AMR evolution, Escherichia coli was selected as indicator bacterium. To this end, animals from each experimental group were sring the growing period, measures should be taken at all levels of the production chain. The spatial network structure of Dergall is based on substances nontoxic to humans and the environment which, when applied on solid surfaces, creates a coating that reduces bacterial cell adhesion. The bacteriostatic properties of siloxanes are based on a purely physical action mechanism which excludes development of drug-resistant microorganisms. The aims of the present study were to 1) evaluate a Dergall layer formed on the eggshell surface regarding the potential harmful effects on the chick embryo; 2) evaluate antimicrobial activity and estimate the prolongation time of Dergall's potential antimicrobial activity. Dergall at a concentration of 0.6% formed a layer on the eggshell surface. In vitro testing of the potential harmful effects of Dergall by means of a hen embryo test of the chorioallantoic membrane showed no irritation reaction at a concentration of 3% and lower. The hatchability of the groups sprayed with a Dergall water solution with a concentration of 0 to 5% was 89.1 to 93.8% for fertilized eggs (P > 0.05) but decreased to 63.7% (P  less then  0.05) in the group sprayed with a 6% concentration of the solution. This phenomenon was caused by embryo mortality in the first week of incubation. At the concentration of 0.6%, Dergall exhibited strong antibacterial properties against bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Shigella dysenteriae, Shigella flexneri, and Salmonella typhimurium. For Streptococcus pyogenes, the highest antibacterial activity of Dergall was reported in the concentrations of 100 and 50%. For Pseudomonas aeruginosa, no antibacterial activity of Dergall was generally observed, but in vivo testing showed a strong decrease of all gram-negative bacteria growth. Moreover, a prolonged antimicrobial effect lasting until 3 D after disinfection was observed, which makes Dergall a safe and efficient disinfectant. An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary riboflavin levels on reproductive performance, riboflavin status, and antioxidant status of laying duck breeders, to estimate the requirement of this vitamin for duck breeders. Different levels crystalline riboflavin (0, 2.5, 5, 10, and 15 mg/kg) were supplemented to a corn-soybean-corn gluten meal basal diet to produce 5 dietary treatments with different analyzed total riboflavin levels (1.48, 3.20, 6.30, 11.71, and 16.83 mg/kg). A total of 80 White Pekin duck breeders aged 40 wk were allotted to 5 dietary treatments of 16 birds each (8 replicates per treatment and 2 breeders per replicate), and all birds were raised individually for 9 wk. At the end of the experiment, reproductive performance, tissue riboflavin concentrations, and antioxidant status of White Pekin duck breeders were measured. The results showed that body weight, egg weight, egg production, and egg fertility were not affected by dietary riboflavin levels. However, among all of 7.44, 6.45, and 8.84 mg/kg, respectively. Reducing dietary CP can reduce N pollution. Much research has been reported in corn-based diets; however, the amino acid (AA) profiles of wheat-based diets differ. Poor performance as a result of reduced protein (RP) has been overcome in corn-based diets with essential AA and glycine (Gly) supplementation. The current study examined RP levels and Gly in wheat-based diets. An industry standard protein (SP) diet plus 3 RP diets with and without Gly supplementation, to match the SP treatment at 0.713 and 0.648% digestible Gly for the grower and finisher periods respectively, were fed to male broilers from day 10 of age. Grower CP included 22.5, 20.6, 18.3, and 17.7% (days 10-21) and finisher CP included 19.7, 17.8, 16.2, and 15.5% (days 21-35). Performance, meat yield, N efficiency, water intake, and apparent ileal digestibility of N and AA were measured. No difference in body weight gain (BWG), feed intake, or feed conversion ratio (FCR) were observed at 20% CP compared to the SP treatment. However, further reducing protein reduced BWG (P  less then  0.
