The mammalian gut is inhabited by a massive and complicated microbial community, in which the host achieves a stable symbiotic environment through the interdependence, coordination, reciprocal constraints and participation in an immune response. The interaction between the host gut and the microbiot...

Background: Organic acid as a green feed additive is increasingly favoured by enterprises and scholars, but little emphasis has been placed on the effect of organic acids on broiler meat quality. Methods: A total of 192 male chicks (one-day-old, weighted 48.40 ± 0.64 g) were selected to investigate ...

Abstract BACKGROUND This experiment was to investigate the effect of dietary live yeast (LY, 1 × 10 10 CFU g −1 ) supplementation on serum metabolic parameters, meat quality as well as antioxidant enzyme activity of transported broilers. A total of 192 one‐day‐old broilers were randomly assigned to ...

Wearable sweat sensors have emerged as vital tools for precise health management. However, the widespread application of existing devices is often hindered by their reliance on multi-layered configurations that necessitate the integration of extrinsic microfluidic channels and discrete rigid sensing...
