Protection of lysozyme with chitosan using radiant energy vacuum dehydration for control of clostridial necrotic enteritis in broiler chickens

The aim of this study was to develop a heat-stable and slow-release lysozyme-based product using radiant energy under vacuum (REV) technology by formulating lysozyme in a chitosan matrix so that the product could be used as a feed additive for more effective control of clostridial necrotic enteritis...
