Impact of stocking density and dietary nano-zinc supplementation on stress indicators, immunity, and DNA damage in broiler chickens

Effects of stocking density (SD) and nano zinc on oxidative status, immune function, and DNA damage in broilers were examined in the current study. Totally 480 one-day-old male broilers (Ross 308) were randomly divided into 4 treatments each contained 8 replicates.  A 2 ´ 2 factorial arrangement wit...

Zusammenfassung:Effects of stocking density (SD) and nano zinc on oxidative status, immune function, and DNA damage in broilers were examined in the current study. Totally 480 one-day-old male broilers (Ross 308) were randomly divided into 4 treatments each contained 8 replicates.  A 2 ´ 2 factorial arrangement with two groups for dietary zinc (Zn) form (inorganic or nano) and two groups for SD (low = 12 birds/m2 and high = 18 birds/m2) was conducted. Basal diets based on the corn-soybean meal were formulated. Relative liver weight was lower (P
