Effects of commercial oligosaccharides on growth of selected beneficial and non-beneficial gut bacteria of broilers
Prebiotics, which are digestive-resistant low molecular weight oligosaccharides, have been known to able to selectively promote the growth of beneficial bacteria. It is one of the substances that is currently being studied as feed supplement to improve the growth performance of chickens. Several com...
