Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Broiler, Animal science, Feed conversion ratio, Meal and Food science. His Broiler course of study focuses on Hemoglobin and Triglyceride. His work on Stocking as part of general Animal science research is often related to Light intensity, thus linking different fields of science.

As a member of one scientific family, Scott L. Branton mostly works in the field of Stocking, focusing on Relative yield and, on occasion, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. His work deals with themes such as Abdominal fat, Amino acid and Biotechnology, which intersect with Feed conversion ratio. Weight gain is closely connected to Soybean meal in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Meal.

His most cited work include:

  • A Review of Lighting Programs for Broiler Production (203 citations)
  • Atmospheric Ammonia is Detrimental to the Performance of Modern Commercial Broilers (156 citations)
  • Stocking density effects on growth performance and processing yields of heavy broilers (147 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Animal science, Mycoplasma gallisepticum, Broiler, Inoculation and Vaccination. His Animal science research includes themes of Feed conversion ratio and Endocrinology, Hematocrit, Internal medicine. His research in Mycoplasma gallisepticum intersects with topics in Eggshell, Veterinary medicine and Virology.

In Broiler, he works on issues like Venous blood, which are connected to Bicarbonate. His work carried out in the field of Inoculation brings together such families of science as Significant difference, Oviduct, Egg laying and Yolk. His work focuses on many connections between Vaccination and other disciplines, such as Poultry farming, that overlap with his field of interest in Biotechnology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (55.30%)
  • Mycoplasma gallisepticum (37.88%)
  • Broiler (34.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Animal science (55.30%)
  • Broiler (34.09%)
  • Bursa of Fabricius (3.03%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Scott L. Branton mainly investigates Animal science, Broiler, Bursa of Fabricius, photoperiodism and Intensity. His work in Animal science tackles topics such as Feed conversion ratio which are related to areas like Starter. His Broiler study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Randomized block design and Whole blood.

His Bursa of Fabricius study also includes

  • Embryonic stem cell which is related to area like Cell, Molecular biology and Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor,
  • Cell biology which intersects with area such as Transcription factor, Transcriptome and Gene expression,
  • Veterinary medicine that intertwine with fields like Vaccination. His work investigates the relationship between Vaccination and topics such as Yolk that intersect with problems in Mycoplasma gallisepticum. His photoperiodism research incorporates themes from Respiratory acidosis, Blood ph, Homeostasis and Acid–base homeostasis.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of light sources and intensity on broilers grown to heavy weights. Part 1: Growth performance, carcass characteristics, and welfare indices (25 citations)
  • Effects of color temperatures (kelvin) of LED bulbs on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and ocular development indices of broilers grown to heavy weights (19 citations)
  • Influence of light sources and photoperiod on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and health indices of broilers grown to heavy weights. (10 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Scott L. Branton spends much of his time researching Animal science, Live weight, Broiler, Feed conversion ratio and Intensity. Scott L. Branton performs multidisciplinary study in Animal science and Light source in his work. His study on Broiler is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Poultry farming.

A majority of his Intensity research is a blend of other scientific areas, such as Light intensity, Welfare and Animal husbandry. His work deals with themes such as Surgery, Anatomy and Venous blood, which intersect with Randomized block design. He integrates several fields in his works, including Starter and Production efficiency.
