NEWS FEED & A DDITIVE MAGAZINE April 2021 13 Avivagen announces new research publication for OxC-beta TM Avivagen Inc., a life sciences corporation fo- cused on developing and commercializing prod- ucts for livestock, companion animal and human applications that enhance feed intake and safely support immune function, thereby supporting general health and performance, has announced that a manuscript reporting the benefits of OxC- beta TM Livestock (“OxC-beta”) for broiler poul- try has been approved for publication by Poultry Science, a leading peer-reviewed journal. The paper, entitled “Effect of Oxidized β -Caro- tene (OxBC) on the Growth and Feed Efficiency of Broilers” reports on the positive results of two dietary supplementation trials in which OxC-beta was used with broiler poultry. In both trials, birds in the OxC-beta groups achieved significantly im- proved growth performance measures, including average daily weight gain and feed utilization effi- ciency, when compared to birds in control groups. These findings demonstrate that dietary supplemen- tation with OxC-beta helps broiler poultry achieve their full growth potential under real world com- mercial conditions without the use of antibiotics. Avivagen has announced upcoming research publication highlighting the benefits of OxC-beta TM livestock for broiler poultry. The study will be published soon in leading peer- reviewed journal Poultry Science.
