Pre and Probiotics for Poultry Gut Health

Starting with an overview of antibiotics as growth promoters and the challenges faced as the industry moves away from their use, this book then thoroughly considers the potential of pre- and probiotic additives in poultry gut health. The book: includes thorough definitions of additives in the pre- and probiotic space and examples of how they work; addresses how to test pre- and probiotics and other similar additives, and how they interact with other products, with learning from both poultry and allied sectors; and combines authors from both academic and industry backgrounds on all chapters, to ensure coverage is balanced, robust and commercially relevant.
