Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Dietary Supplementation with Pumpkin oil (Cucurbita pepo) on Performance and Blood Fat of Broiler Chickens during Finisher PeriodHosna Hajati, Ahmad Hasanabadi, Park W. WaldroupProblem statement: Using most of antibiotic growth promoters as feed additives has been banned by the European Union due to cross-resistance against pathogens and residues in tissues; and scientists search for alternatives to antibiotics, two days. In this view, medicinal plants and essential oils extracted are becoming more important due to their antimicrobial and stimulating effects on animal digestive systems. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 9,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLeptospirosis in the Tropics: When Prevention Doesn't Easily Sell as a Ton of CureRoger Lee MendozaProblem statement: Human leptospirosis -- the most widespread zoonotic disease -- thrives in tropical and subtropical climates. It is seldom addressed ex ante or prior to an outbreak or expected outbreak by governments of high-risk countries. Whether common, post-exposure treatment with antimicrobial drugs is more cost-efficient than reducing animal reservoir populations was the overarching question that guided this study.
