Responses of broiler chickens in growth performance, nutrient utilization, and gut microbiome to dietary fiber and dried fermentation product

The objective of this experiment was to investigate the effects of dietary fiber and dried fermentation product on growth performance, nutrient utilization, short chain fatty acid production, and gut microbiome of broiler chickens. Fresh ileal and cecal digesta samples were collected from 21-day-old broiler chickens to analyze the gut microbiome.

本试验旨在探究膳食纤维与干燥发酵产物对肉鸡生长性能、养分利用率、短链脂肪酸（short chain fatty acid）生成以及肠道微生物组的影响。研究采集21日龄肉鸡的新鲜回肠与盲肠食糜样本，以分析其肠道微生物组。
