Effect of in feed administration of different butyrate formulations on Salmonella Enteritidis colonization and cecal microbiota in broilers

Table 1 **Number of cloacal swabs positive forSalmonellaEnteritidis strain 147 in the first trial**

Number of positive swabs on total per dietary treatment are given at 1 and 3 days post-infection (dpi) with 10⁵ CFU Salmonella. Broilers were fed a diet either or not supplemented with a butyrate containing feed additive in a concentration of 3 g/kg of sodium butyrate.
* Significant difference in positive samples between control and dietary treatment with butyrate derivative (p-value < 0.05).
