Effect of yeast-supplemented feed on Salmonella and Campylobacter populations in broilers

Open access

Abstract

The effect of the yeast, Saccharomyces boulardii, on experimental cecal colonization of broilers with Salmonella typhimurium and Campylobacter jejuni was investigated. Duplicate pens of broiler chicks were given ad libitum access to a standard feed supplemented with no yeast (control), or 1 g (1x), or 100 g (100x) dried S. boulardii/kg feed. All chicks except negative controls were challenged on Day 4 with 3.2 x 10(8) cfu S. typhimurium and 6.5 x 10(8) cfu C. jejuni by oral gavage. After 3 wk, the broilers were euthanatized and ceca were aseptically removed and analyzed for Salmonella and Campylobacter. Frequency of Salmonella colonization was significantly (P < 0.05) reduced due to yeast treatment. Of the positive control birds, 70% were colonized with Salmonella; whereas only 20 and 5% of the 1x and 100x yeast-treated birds were colonized. Mean number of Salmonella per gram of ceca and contents were log 1.64, 0.35, and 0.15, respectively, for the control, 1x, and 100x yeast-treated birds. Campylobacter colonization was not significantly affected by yeast treatment. Similar results were obtained from a second trial conducted in larger isolation floor pens.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In broiler chickens, there was a decreased frequency of Salmonella colonization in animals fed a yeast-supplanted diet, while the frequency of Campylobacter colonization in all animals was unaffected.

    “It was observed that there was a decreased frequency of Salmonella colonization in the animals that had been fed the yeast-supplanted diet while the frequency of colonization of Campylobacter in all animals was unaffected.”

    From Brewer’s Spent Yeast (BSY), an Underutilized Brewing By-Product (2020) · cites this paper as Line et al. (1998)

  • There was no observed statistically significant change in animal weight in the study by Line et al. (1998).

    “There was also no observed statistically significant change in animal weight [51].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
