Revealing the physical restrictions of caecal influx in broilers through the use of solid and soluble markers

Revealing the physical restrictions of caecal influx in broilers through the use of solid and soluble markers

A promising strategy to support broiler health and performance in a sustainable way is the enhancement of microbial fibre fermentation in broilers. This fermentation mainly occurs in the caeca, but the actual particle size range that allows caecal influx has not yet been described. This study aimed...
