Ammonia exposure induced intestinal inflammation injury mediated by intestinal microbiota in broiler chickens via TLR4/TNF-α signaling pathway

Ying Zhou et al.

Summary: The study found that ammonia exposure can cause intestinal injury under environmental pollution, and dysbiosis of intestinal microbiota is involved in the development of intestinal injury by regulating the TLR4/TNF-alpha signaling pathway.

Review of litter turning during a grow-out as a litter management practice to achieve dry and friable litter in poultry production

Claire-Marie Pepper et al.

Summary: Maintaining dry litter is crucial for successful meat chicken production, and litter turning can help reduce moisture content. However, research on the impact of litter turning on chicken welfare is limited. Australian meat chicken growers have concerns about the impact of litter turning, but also see its potential benefits for their operations.

The alterations of tracheal microbiota and inflammation caused by different levels of ammonia exposure in broiler chickens

Ying Zhou et al.

Summary: The study found that even at lower levels of ammonia exposure, such as 15 ppm, significant changes in the tracheal microbiota of chickens and respiratory tract inflammatory injuries can occur, with an increase in IL-1b possibly being the cause of tracheal damage.
