Overview

Experiment demonstrates improved antioxidant status and gut health in broilers with gallic acid, suggesting a protective role against aflatoxin B1 effects.

Key Points

  • This research evaluates the impact of gallic acid on growth, gut health, and antioxidant status in broilers exposed to aflatoxin B1.
  • Randomized trial with 480 WOD178 broilers
  • Groups given diets with or without 250 mg/kg gallic acid and 500 µg/kg aflatoxin B1
  • Evaluated growth performance, intestinal morphology, and antioxidant enzyme activities.
  • Supplementation with gallic acid reduced malondialdehyde levels and improved liver antioxidant status
  • Gallic acid improved intestinal structure and function, enhancing Lactobacillus levels
  • α-diversity index was increased while β-diversity index was decreased by gallic acid.
