Poultry Nutrition Blackbelt - #12 - The intersection of poultry nutrition and immunology
Sep 06, 2023
In this episode of The Poultry Nutrition Blackbelt we interview Dr. Victoria Anthony, a postdoctoral research associate from Iowa State University specialized in poultry nutrition and immunology. We dive into the core elements of the subject and shed light on some groundbreaking discoveries coming up in the field, driven by scientific progress and innovative research. One of Victoria's cutting-edge works revolves around L-Citrulline, a nonessential amino acid known for its role in arginine recycling in poultry. She aimed her research at unraveling the potential of L-Citrulline when used directly, and her studies uncovered its efficacy in heat stress mitigation, antioxidative properties, and promoting growth performance in broiler chickens.
