The Sorption of Roxarsone, an Organoarsenical Animal Feed Additive
The organoarsenical roxarsone is added to poultry feed to increase weight gain. Studies have shown that roxarsone does not accumulate in poultry tissue but is excreted, resulting in elevated arsenic concentrations (~40 mg/kg) in poultry litter. However, there is little understanding of the fate of …

Methoprene as a poultry feed additive for house fly control
… in commercial caged-layer houses as a poultry feed additive at 7.5 ppm (AI in feed) in the 1974 fly season and at 10 ppm (AI in feed) in the 1975 fly season. In both seasons, the methoprene treatment caused an inhibition of house fly emergence. However, the average percentage of inhibition did …
