Dietary chlorogenic acid modulates jejunal microbiota, short-chain fatty acids, and hypothalamic gene expression in broilers under high stocking density

High stocking density can impair broiler growth and is associated with alterations in intestinal microbial ecology and neuroendocrine regulation of feeding. Chlorogenic acid (CGA) has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and microbiota-modulating properties. This study evaluated dietary CGA in a 2 × 2 experimental arrange...

Dietary Chlorogenic Acid Attenuates Liver Injury, Lipid Metabolic Disturbance, and Inflammatory Responses in Broilers Under High Stocking Density

Simple Summary High stocking density can impair broiler health as live-weight load per unit area increases during growth. This study examined whether 0.1% dietary chlorogenic acid (CGA), supplied from 7 to 42 d of age, could support liver health in broilers housed at 14 or 22 birds/m2. At 42 d, the recorded live-weight...
