Adding Amprolium to Chicken Feed |
Popularity:  Hit: 421 | Visit: 9 |
|
Outlines research into whether including this antibiotic in their food affects weight gain in broiler chicks. Adding medication to livestock feed is a controversial subject. Some people involved in the livestock and poultry industry claim these additives prevent diseases and produce faster and more consistent animal growth. Others claim that these additives can cause disease in those of us who consume the meat and that the reward of reduced production costs is not worth the risk of problems with the meat produced. In the poultry industry, common drug additives to chicken feed are the antibiotics amprolium, penicillin, and chlortetracycline. Scientists have recently discovered strains of bacteria in the meat, which are resistant to antibiotics used in animal feed. The seriousness of this finding has been underscored by a case report of a man becoming paralyzed from an infection acquired by eating contaminated chicken. The bacteria that caused the illness are known to develop resistance to antibiotics.
