This study aimed to investigate the effects of broiler strains (Ross 308 and Cobb) and hatching altitude (Rasht 0 m and Tabriz 1400 m) effects on the incidence of ascites syndrome and related traits. Two hundred forty hatching eggs of the same weight (64±1 gram) were used. The eggs hatched in both locations simultaneously. The studied parameters were incidence of ascites syndrome at 14, 21, and 42 days, lung and heart volume at 14 and 42 days, carcass performance, antioxidant status, hematological measurements, thyroid hormone levels, nitric oxide, lipid profile, uric acid, and liver enzyme level. Results showed that the strain on SOD, T3, and cholesterol, hatching altitude on lung and heart volume at 42 days, and T3, and the interaction of strain at hatching altitude on lung and heart volume at 42 days, spleen percentage, nitric oxide level, and RV-to-TV ratio were significant effect (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.05). The incidence of ascites and heart volume increases with age, but lung volume decreases. Even though there is no significant difference between the two strains and the hatching altitude in most of the traits, the comparison of the numerical values of the parameters indicates that the high-altitude hatching and the Cobb strain have higher values. These data suggest that selected broiler strains and hatching environments could have a higher sensitivity to alterations in pulmonary rheological parameters at an early age, triggering the ascites syndrome.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15240,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Poultry Research","volume":"34 2","pages":"Article 100515"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143137311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While reporting broiler WC in units of L/1,000 birds makes discussions in the field easier when trying to estimate the expected water needs of a farm, broiler genetics and husbandry practices continue to increase bird weights earlier in the flock. Including a WC:BW in terms of mL of WC to kg of BW can provide a more accurate comparison.

The OKP significantly reduced intra-assay variability to 5.4 % compared to 61 % (MP) and 33 % (KP). Feather CORT levels were reliably quantified using the OKP, showing linear recovery of spiked samples (R² = 0.97). No significant correlation was found between plasma and feather CORT concentrations, underscoring the potential of feather sampling for long-term, as opposed to acute, stress assessment in poultry. This optimized method provides a valuable tool for animal welfare studies, enabling accurate and consistent measurement of feather CORT levels across different poultry strains and conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15240,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Poultry Research","volume":"34 1","pages":"Article 100505"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142757560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
