^{1, 2} Means not sharing the same superscripts are significantly different (P < 0.05).

³Data represent the mean of 6 replicate pens of 10 broiler chickens per pen.

⁴XG = xylanase and β-glucanase (100 g/t; Natugrain, BASF, Germany).

⁵P = phytase (100 g/t; Phyzyme XP 5000, Danisco Animal Nutrition, UK).

⁶A = acidifier (3,000 g/t; BioAcid Ultra, Biochem, Germany).

⁷SEM = standard error of the mean.
