Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Juan D. Latorre's research focuses on optimizing gut health and immune function in poultry through nutritional and microbial interventions. His work investigates the impact of probiotics, prebiotics, and phytogenic substances on poultry health, with a specific emphasis on broiler chickens. Latorre has studied the role of various bacterial species, including *Bacillus* and lactic acid bacteria, as direct-fed microbial candidates, evaluating their enzyme production, antimicrobial activity, and biofilm synthesis capabilities.
His research also explores the physiological responses of poultry to dietary challenges and immune stimulators. This includes examining intestinal permeability, white blood cell counts, and immune organ responses following the administration of substances like dexamethasone in feed. Latorre has developed and refined methods for measuring biomarkers related to gut permeability and inflammation, such as the fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran (FITC-D) assay, to better understand disease models like necrotic enteritis. His collaborations include extensive work with Billy M. Hargis, Danielle Graham, Inkar Castellanos-Huerta, and Aaron J. Forga at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
With an h-index of 36 and over 130 publications, Latorre is recognized as a highly cited researcher. His scholarship encompasses studies on the gastrointestinal microbiome, host-pathogen interactions, and the utilization of feed ingredients to enhance animal health and performance.
