The current study evaluated the impact of lysophospholipid emulsifiers' (LPLs) dietary incorporation on ameliorating the negative impacts of oxidative stress in broilers. A total of 270 2-week-old male Avian 48 chicks were randomly divided into six experimental groups. The first group fed a basal diet (BD) only, while the second group (+DEX) received BD containing 2 mg/kg dexamethasone. The third and fourth groups consisted of birds fed a BD containing 0.5 and 1 g of LPLSs/kg, respectively. The fifth and sixth groups, received BD containing 1 mg/kg dexamethasone and were supplemented with 0.5 and 1 g of LPLs, respectively. Separate supplementation of LPLs significantly improved the broilers' growth as confirmed by increasing final weight, body gain, and FI with improved feed conversion ratio (FCR) ( Dietary supplementation of LPLs at 0.5g level could effectively mitigate the adverse effects of oxidative stress in broilers, improving the growth performance, immune response, intestinal health, and meat quality of broiler chickens under normal and stressful conditions.
