author keywords: broiler; direct fed microbials; energy metabolism; gene expression; probiotics; systemic immune function
MeSH headings : Animal Feed; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Chickens / immunology; Chickens / metabolism; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Supplements; Energy Metabolism / immunology; Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay; Erythrocytes / immunology; Gene Expression Regulation / immunology; Gram-Positive Bacteria / physiology; Immunoglobulin A / blood; Immunoglobulin G / blood; Male; Oxygen Consumption; Sheep; Time Factors
TL;DR: Data indicate that supplementation with the direct fed microbial used in this study resulted in energy re-partitioning to the immune system and an increase in antibody production independent of changes in whole body metabolism or growth performance. (via Semantic Scholar)

Microarchitecture and spatial relationship between bacteria and ileal, cecal, and colonic epithelium in chicks fed a direct-fed microbial, PrimaLac, and salinomycin

POULTRY SCIENCE, 86(6), 1121–1132.

By: M. Chichlowski  n, W. Croom n, F. Edens n, B. McBride *, R. Qiu n, C. Chiang *, L. Daniel n, G. Havenstein n, M. Koci n 

author keywords: broiler chicken; direct-fed microbial; scanning electron microscopy; histology
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Chickens / metabolism; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Supplements; Gastrointestinal Tract / drug effects; Gastrointestinal Tract / microbiology; Gastrointestinal Tract / ultrastructure; Intestinal Mucosa / drug effects; Intestinal Mucosa / microbiology; Lactobacillus / metabolism; Pyrans / pharmacology
TL;DR: Spatial relationships, in this study, demonstrate the functionality of DFM and probiotics in preventing disease and supports previous observations that the feeding of salinomycin may alter intestinal function. (via Semantic Scholar)
