• Effects of probiotic and phytogenic products on performance, gut morphology and cecal microflora of broiler chickens (2010, methodology): “It was reported that the intestine can change its surface by growing to length, and/or by increasing or decreasing the height of its villi (IJI et al. 2001, UŠĆEBRKA et al. 2005, ŽIKIĆ et al. 2008).”
• Effect of dietary components on the gut microbiota of aquatic animals. A never‐ending story? (2016, background): “MOS can improve gut function and health, by increasing the villi height, uniformity and integrity (Castillo et al. 2008; Hooge 2004; Iji et al. 2001).”
• A review of 733 published trials on Bio-Mos®, a mannan oligosaccharide, and Actigen®, a second generation mannose rich fraction, on farm and companion animals. (2015, background): “, 2010), pigs (Iji et al., 2001) and calves (Milk Products, 2007).”
• Effects of non-antibiotic feed additives on performance, immunity and intestinal morphology of broilers fed different levels of protein (2012, unknown): “Similarly, Iji et al. (2001) and Awad”
• Effects of Different Dietary Levels of Mannanoligosaccharide on Growth Performance and Gut Development of Broiler Chickens (2007, background): “On the other hand, an improvement in the villus height of small intestine was observed in medium or high MOS treatment, which agrees with the reports by Spring (1996) and Iji et al. (2001).”
• Mannan Oligosaccharides (MOS) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae in Broilers: Effects on Performance and Blood Biochemistry* (2008, background): “(3) reported that feeding broilers diets with 5 g/kg of Bio-Mos led to minor improvements in BW, but no improvement in FCR.”
• Dietary modulation of gut microflora in broiler chickens: a review of the role of six kinds of alternatives to in-feed antibiotics (2009, background): “Mannanoligosaccharides, specifically Bio-MOS, were shown to alter mucosal architecture and longer villi were noticed in birds fed MOS-supplemented diets (Iji et al., 2001; Loddi et al., 2002; Yang et al., 2007b).”
