Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar os benefícios e o melhor nível de inclusão de parede celular de Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PCSC) na dieta sobre a morfologia intestinal de codornas japonesas (Coturnix coturnix japonica) durante a fase de produção. 400 codornas japonesas (42 a 154 dias de idade) foram distribuídas em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com cinco tratamentos e 10 repetições com oito aves cada. Foram utilizadas cinco dietas com diferentes níveis de parede celular de S. cerevisiae (0, 0,5, 1,0; 1,5; 2,0kg t-1). A dieta foi fornecida ad libitum durante todo o período experimental. As variáveis analisadas foram: altura e largura das vilosidades, relação altura/largura das vilosidades e profundidade da cripta intestinal. Altura, largura e proporção altura/largura das vilosidades intestinais foram influenciados pela inclusão de PCSc na dieta, enquanto que a profundidade das criptas não foi influenciada pela adição de PCSc. A inclusão de parede celular de S. cerevisiae na dieta até 1,7kg t-1 trouxe alterações positivas na morfologia do epitélio intestinal de codornas japonesas (C. c. japonica) na fase de produção.

A total of three hundred (300) Japanese quail eggs were used to study the effect of oviposition time and egg weight on hatchability and post-hatch performance. The eggs were grouped into two (2) of 150 eggs based on the oviposition time of Morning and Afternoon. The eggs in each group (150) were further sub-grouped based on the egg weights of 8 to10 grams designated as small sized and 10.1 to 12 grams designated as big size in a 2 x 2 factorial design trial of 4 treatments. Each treatment had seventy five (75) eggs each with three replicates. The four treatments groups were; Big Morning, Small Morning, Big Afternoon, Small Afternoon. Each treatment group was replicated three times with each replicates consisting of twenty-five (25) eggs. Hatchability parameters were determined during incubation period of 18 days. The quail chicks were fed ad-libitum and the post- hatch performance was studied for eight (8) weeks. The data generated were subjected to a one-way analysis of variance. Oviposition time and size of the egg significantly (p<0.05) affected the average hatch weight. The effect of interaction of oviposition time and egg size on post-hatch performance did not have any significant (p>0.05) influence. Oviposition time had a positive correlation (p<0.05) with egg weight, egg weight loss, percent egg weight loss and fertility percentage but negatively correlated with average hatch weight and hatchability percentage. Meanwhile egg size had a positive significant (p<0.01) correlation with average hatch weight. It was concluded that eggs ranging between 10.1 to 12 grams will produce higher hatch weight. However, setting of Japanese quail eggs ranging between 8 to 12 grams irrespective of oviposition time could not affect post-hatch performance of the chicks.

The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of feed restriction on growth hormone profiles and ovarian morphology during the growth period. Three hundred 14-day-old quails were used. The quails were maintained on two feeding restriction programs: two dietary regimes based on metabolizable energy (ME), R1 = 2900 kcal/kg and R2 = 2800 kcal/kg, and 3 quantitative feed restriction diets, P0 = 100% ad libitum; P1= 90% ad libitum and P2 = 80%ad libitum (n=300). Each group (n=50) was processed with five replications, 10 birds in each replicate. The change in growth hormone was determined at 28, 35, 42, and 49 days of age, while ovarian morphology was determined at sexual maturity. The results indicated that feed restriction induced a significant increase in growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1 after re-feeding. There was no significant effect caused by the rationing of metabolizable energy. The number of large yellow follicles was not different between quails fed with 100% ad libitum and 90% ad libitum. However, feed restriction significantly increased the number of small yellow follicles. In conclusion, the feed could be restricted to 90% ad libitum with a 2900 kcal/kg ration of ME and fed during the starter period (14 to 42 days of age) without influencing ovarian morphology in quails.

The study aims to determine the impact of dietary crude protein levels on the hematological parameters of Japanese quail from growth to ovipositor. To this end, five feeds with different crude protein levels (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26%) were supplied to 700 quails of three weeks of age. These were subdivided into six batches, including three batches of females and three batches of males for each feed group. After subjecting the quails to diets containing the different protein levels, four samples were taken at the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh week of age. The samples taken were analyzed using an SYSMEX XN 350 automated hematological analyzer. The results of this investigation indicated that non-significant differences (P > 0.05) were observed in hematological parameters in both female and male quails. This study showed that dietary crude protein levels had no impact on the health status of Japanese quails. Keywords: Japanese quails, Crude protein, Hematological parameters.

Livestock-associated MRSA (LA-MRSA) is a zoonotic pathogen that has been reported in several animals, and it is often associated with clonal complex (CC) 398. We aimed to isolate MRSA from quails and to characterize their antimicrobial resistance and genetic lineages. One hundred swab samples were recovered from quails at the slaughterhouse. The swabs were inoculated onto CHROMagar™ MRSA agar plates for MRSA isolation. The presence of antimicrobial-resistant genes and virulence factors was investigated by PCR. All strains were typed by MLST, SCCmec-, spa- and agr-typing. From the 100 samples, 29 MRSA were isolated. All strains were resistant to penicillin, cefoxitin, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin and clindamycin and carried the blaZ, mecA, ermB and ermC genes. All strains, except one, showed resistance to tetracycline and harbored the tetM, tetK and tetL genes in different combinations. Twenty strains belonged to ST398 and SCCmec type V, and nine strains belonged to the new ST6831. Twenty-eight out of twenty-nine strains were ascribed to t011 and one to t108. As far as we know, this is the first report of MRSA from quails slaughtered for human consumption. Most strains belonged to ST398-t011, which is the most common LA-MRSA clone found in livestock in Europe.
