Résumé
The aim of this study was to explore the effects of probiotics (Ecobiol®) and threonine supplements on broiler internal organs and intestinal health under Clostridium perfringens challenge. A total of 1600 male Ross 308 broiler chicks were randomly assigned to eight treatments with eight replicates each of 25 birds. Dietary treatments consisted of two levels of supplemented threonine (without and with threonine supplementation), two levels of probiotics (Ecobiol®) supplement (0 and 0. 1% of diet), and two levels of challenge (without and with 1 ml of the C. perfringens inoculum (∼10
