The Effect of Carbohydrate Administration on Experimental-infection With Salmonella Serotypes in Chickens

Year: 1995

Type: article

Abstract: Carbohydrates and cultures of faecal microflora were administered to newly hatched chicks to prevent infection with Salmonella typhimurium Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella agona and Salmonella infantis. Birds were killed 72 hours after challenge and the number of viable Salmonella organisms in their caecal contents estimated. Carbohydrates did not promote efficient control of infection with the Salmonella serotypes tested whereas cultures of faecal microflora completely prevented infection with all serotypes.
