Effects of dietary short- and medium-chain fatty acids on performance, carcass traits, jejunum morphology, and serum parameters of broiler chickens

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs; C4 powder) and medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs; Bergaprime) on performance, carcass characteristics, and some serum parameters of broiler chickens. A total of 200 one-day-old male broiler chicks (Ross 308) wer...
