In order to evaluate the ethnoveterinary effect of Macleaya cordata extract on bacteria colony forming units (CFU) in different organs of gastrointestinal tract and productive parameters of broilers challenged with Salmonella typhimurium, eighty one day old Cobb broilers were randomly assigned either to a diet without additive or with additive at 50 g/ton during 21 days. The count of CFU of Salmonella typhimurium in crop, gizzard, and duodenum, at 21 days, showed broilers that received the Macleaya cordata extract had a reduction. The broilers also had higher final body weight, total gain, average daily gain and better feed conversion value as compared with those that had not received it. Feed intake was not affected. Results concluded that Macleaya cordata extract is an ethnoveterinary alternative efficient for control of Salmonella typhimurium and a growth promoter in broilers.
