Type: article
Abstract: As the increasing safety concerns about the risk of spreading antibiotic resistance in humans and environment and the detection of chemical residues in animal derived products, using organic acids (OAs) to replace antibiotic in the diet of farm animals and poultry industry has been increased considerably in recent years. Through their potential to modify the pH of the gastrointestinal tract and subsequently the genetic profile of microbiome, organic acids have shown promise in improving production performance. Since poultry and swine industry are the major part of today’s livestock sector, improving their growth and performance undoubtedly raise the overall economic gain from livestock enterprise.
