Butyrate: a tool for a better gut health

Thu, 22 Aug 2019 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Prof Joshua GONG Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada

Presentation:
Butyrate has roles as nutrient and messenger. Protected it stimulates better gut health, through mucosa integrity, reduction of inflammation and better digestive capacities. It also enhances production of anti-inflammatory Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase (IAP), a biomarker of gut health.

Poultry Science Association Annual Meeting 2019

The bird and its ecosystem:
A global approach for an efficient production.
How to work with a complete and dynamic ecosystem is the challenge facing today’s nutritionist. Having a global and integrative view of how the intestinal microbiome and the animal’s body function together is the basis of sustainable nutrition.

Metabolic insight into the action of butyrate in the gut and beyond

Wed, 24 Apr 2019 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Prof Kolapo AJUWON, Purdue Univ, USA

Butyrate improves the gut integrity through strengthening the tight junctions as well as stimulating immune response and reducing inflammation induced by pathogen bacteria. Moreover, it is clearly shown that endogenous, from fiber-degrading intestinal bacteria or exogenous butyrate results in increased circulating level in plasma and brain.
Butyrate has indeed a strong influence on the gut-brain axis: stimulating PYY, serotonin production. Butyrate also appears to stimulate lipid metabolism at the cellular level through increasing insulin sensitivity, adipocyte differentiation and glucose uptake.

Methionine and selenium as levers to improve meat quality in swine

Tue, 27 Mar 2018 00:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Dr Mickaël Briens; Dr Dolores I. Batonon-Alavo, Adisseo, France

Sulfur amino acids and selenium are key levers of antioxidant mechanisms, through glutathione and glutathione peroxidase to limit meat oxidation and improve product quality.
