Growth promoters are used in poultry farming to improve growth and development. There are two main types - antimicrobial growth promoters which are low doses of antibiotics, and natural growth promoters (NGPs) including enzymes, probiotics, and acidifiers. NGPs offer advantages like developing gut microflora, improving digestion and feed efficiency, and reducing disease. Common antimicrobial growth promoters for poultry are types of penicillin, tetracycline, and macrolides. NGPs support nutrient absorption and the immune system through mechanisms like degrading anti-nutrients, establishing beneficial bacteria, and maintaining low gut pH.

Poultry

3. Topic Under Discussion
• Defination
• Advantages
• Antimicrobial growth promoters
• Enzymes as growth promoters
• Probiotics as growth promoters
• Acidifiers as growth promoters
• Conclusion

4. GROWTH PROMOTER
• The term "antibiotic growth promoter" is used to describe any medicine that destroys or
inhibits bacteria and is administered at a low, sub therapeutic dose. The use of
antibiotics for growth promotion has arisen with the intensification of livestock farming.
• NGPS(Natural Growth Promoter) include predominantly organic acids, probiotics,
prebiotics, synbiotics, phytogenics, tannins, feed enzymes and immune stimulants.

5. ADVANTAGES
• Rapid development of a healthy gut microflora
• Stabilization of digestion
• Increased growth performance
• Stimulation and rapid maturation of the immune system
• Reduced incidence of diarrhea
• Improved feed efficiency
• Lower mortality rates

6. ANTIMICROBIAL GROWTH PROMOTERS
(POULTRY)
• PENICILLIN
• TETRACYCLINE
• NEOMYCIN
• GLYCOPEPTIDES
• STREPTOTHRICINS
• MACROLIDES

7. NGPS(Natural Growth Promoter)
• Carbohydrases,
• Phytases
• Proteases
FEED ENZYMES
• IMPROVE THE UTILIZATION OF ENERGY
AND NUTRIENTS.
• DEGRADE SEVERAL UNDESIRED
COMPONENTS
• SUPPORT THE ENDOGENOUS ENZYME
SECRETIONS

8. NGPS(Natural Growth Promoter)
• LACTOBACILLUS
• BIFIDOBACTERIUM
• ENTEROCOCCUS
PROBIOTICS
