Development and Evaluation of a Commercial Direct-Fed Microbial (Zymospore<sup>®</sup>) on the Fecal Microbiome and Growth Performance of Broiler Chickens under Experimental Challenge Conditions

Development and Evaluation of a Commercial Direct-Fed Microbial (Zymospore<sup>®</sup>) on the Fecal Microbiome and Growth Performance of Broiler Chickens under Experimental Challenge Conditions

Direct-fed microbials (DFM) are added to broiler chicken diets in order to promote the proliferation of beneficial intestinal bacterial populations, which may lead to gains in performance efficiency and, potentially, reduce the level of enteric pathogens in the broiler chickens. The selection and la...
