Summary

Introduction

C Online First Article Campylobacteriosis is a collective term used for the infection caused by the members of Campylobacter species. Reducing colonization of Campylobacter jejuni in the gut can be useful in decreasing the contamination of the poultry. Different organic acids display potential as a substitute of antibiotics. These improve poultry performance by modifying the pH of the gastro-intestinal tract of bird, and change the composition of its microbiome and protecting the chicken from pH-sensitive pathogens. Excluding the negative control group, all groups were tested with fresh culture of Campylobacter jejuni on 14, 21, 28 and 35 day of age. The results suggest synergistic actions of a mixture of organic acids are effective for decreasing Campylobacter jejuni colonization in vivo. Our study suggests that there is no direct impact of organic acids on weight gain and FCR of the birds statistically
