Tryptophan Alleviates Acute Heat Stress-Induced Impairment of Antioxidant Status and Mitochondrial Function in Broilers

Tryptophan Alleviates Acute Heat Stress-Induced Impairment of Antioxidant Status and Mitochondrial Function in Broilers

Heat stress has been considered as a critical risk factor for decreasing performance and causing oxidative stress in broilers. The tryptophan (TRP) derivative 5-hydroxytryptophan has been reported to protect membrane fluidity in broilers suffering from oxidative stress. Therefore, this experiment wa...
