Hulless barley and beta-glucanase levels in the diet affect the performance of coccidiosis-challenged broiler chickens in an age-dependent manner
Diet β-glucanase (BGase) depolymerizes viscous β-glucan into lower molecular weight carbohydrates, which might act as a prebiotic in chickens exposed to enteric disease. Coccidiosis-challenged broiler chickens were fed graded levels of hulless barley (HB) and BGase to determine their effects on grow...
