RISDoes ascites affect the weight of internal organs in broilers
A study was conducted to evaluate
Changes of Biochemical Parameters and Enzymes Activities in Broiler Chickens with Cold Induced Ascites
A study was conducted to evaluate
The comparative analysis of phenotypic and whole transcriptome gene expression data of ascites susceptible versus ascites resistant chickens
Ascites syndrome (AS) is a metabolic disorder that mainly occurs at later ages of meat-type chickens. Despite many research, there is no consensus about the origin of this syndrome. Our main purpose were to investigate the syndrome using both...
A quantitative trait locus for ascites on chromosome 9 in broiler chicken lines
Changes of Blood Gases, Internal Organ Weights and performance of Broiler Chickens with Cold Induced Ascites
An experiment with 250 day-old Ross male broilers was conducted to investigate the differences of blood gas parameters, internal organ weights and perfosrmance of cold induced ascitic and healthy broilers in a 6 week period. These chickens were...
A Bivariate Mixture Model Analysis of Body Weight and Ascites Traits in Broilers
The objective of the present study was to use bivariate mixture models to study the relationships between body weight (BW) and ascites indicator traits. Existing data were used from an experiment in which birds were housed in 2 groups under...
Mitochondrial biogenesis and PGC-1α gene expression in male broilers from ascites-susceptible and -resistant lines
Ascites is a cardiovascular metabolic disease characterized by accumulation of fluid around the heart and in the abdominal cavity that eventually leads to death. This syndrome is the end-point result of a series of metabolic incidents...
Characteristics of carcass condemnations in a Poultry abattoir in Quchan, Khorasan Razavi, Iran
.1% and 16.36% were due to cachexia, septicemia and ascites respectively. Very low proportion (1.2%) of condemnation was due to slaughter-related causes.
Total condemnation had a significant seasonal pattern. Total condemnation in spring...
Influence of ascites syndrome on growth pattern of chickens reared at normal or cold ambient temperature
Ascites syndrome (AS) is a metabolic disorder usually seen in highly improved meat-type broiler
strains. This syndrome causes major financial losses to the poultry industry. Previously it was
believed that AS incidence was a side...
