Probiotic: " A live microbial feed supplement which
beneficially affects the host animal by improving its intestinal
balance".
This emphasizes the importance of live cells as an essential
component of an effective probiotic.The inclusion of probiotics
in the animal feed regulates or enhances the microbial environment,
allows the establishment of healthy gastro-intestinal microflora,
reduces digestive upsets, improves feed conversion ratio and thus
increases animal perfomance, in final analysis. Further, Lactobacillus
sporogenes has a high degree of aflatoxin degradation potential.
Hence, supplementation of feed with L.Sporogenes improves weight
gain and feed efficiency by reducing NH3 concentration and aflatoxins
content and by preventing diseases caused by pathogenic microbial
flora. Increasd weight increments in aquaculture are realised
as Lactobacullus enchances cleavage of high molecular weight proteins
and improves biologial availability of feeds. In addition to this,
it possesses antibiotic activity against Staphylococci and coliform
bacteria. It is therefore ideally used as a growth promoter.
- Limits the activity of harmful pathogenic bactria ( E.coli,
Salmonella, Campylobacter etc.)
- Maintains a healthy, balanced gut microflora
- Improves performance
- Reduces digestive upsets
- Improves FCR (feed conversion ratio)
- Improves resistance to stress and disease
- Lowers mortality-improves profitability
