A 75 days feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the influence of dietary supplementation of multi-strain (Bacillus sp.) probiotic (22×109 CFU/g) on growth and hematological parameters of Barbonymus gonionotus. A total 270 uniformed size (length 2.40±0.16 cm and weight 4.25±0.01g) fishes were equally and randomly distributed in nine (three treatments each with three replication) glass aquaria ...

A probiotic containing Bacillus mesentericus, Clostridium butyricum, and Streptococcus faecalis [AVITEAM] was evaluated in damage control and synergism with vaccination against coccidial infection in broilers, using morphometric measurements and histopathological observations. It was mixed in feeds and vaccination was done by inoculating birds with an attenuated live vaccine containing Eimeria ...

Purpose. To investigate the heat resistance of probiotic preparations before and after granulation compound feed, to compare obtained results. Methods. General scientific: hypothesis, experiment, analysis synthesis. Specific: morphological, biochemical statistical. define bacterial preparations, colony-forming viability cells was determined with exposure maximum for one minute. The temperature ...

Kombucha is an acidic non-alcoholic fermented tea beverage that has surged in popularity over the past decade. A key driver of this perception kombucha contains microbes contribute to gut health, a reinforced by package claims such as “live” and “probiotic”. We surveyed retail-available (soft) alcoholic (hard) selected 39 products, which 74.4% included at least one these claims. Based upon Nucl...

The beneficial effects of probiotics have been attributed to their ability to promote the immunological and nonimmunological defense barrier in the gut, normalization of increased intestinal permeability and altered gut microflora. Twelve different intestinal bacterial colonies were isolated from Black Tiger Shrimp (Penaeus monodon). Among them strain PPP 13 was studied and characterized due to...

Introduction: Functional foods provide a buoyant growth sector. A particular dynamic area is the use of carotenoids, not only as colorants but also as food additives. One issue with these products is their instability both on the shelf and upon digestion. Specific bacteria from the Bacillus species were shown to produce carotenoids, which have been shown to exert superior stability throughout t...

Six antimicrobial-producing seaweed-derived Bacillus strains were evaluated in vitro as animal probiotics, in comparison to two Bacillus from an EU-authorized animal probiotic product. Antimicrobial activity was demonstrated on solid media against porcine Salmonella and E. coli. The marine isolates were most active against the latter, had better activity than the commercial probiotics and Bacil...

The integration of probiotics in aquaponics systems is a strategy for mitigating environmental impacts and promoting sustainable agriculture. In order to understand the role probiotics, we investigated effect commercial probiotic mixture Bacillus subtilis B. licheniformis on growth lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) under deep-water culture integrated with Mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus)....

Bacillus strains isolated from soil or channel catfish intestine were screened for their antagonism against Edwardsiella ictaluri and Aeromonas hydrophila, the causative agents of enteric septicemia of catfish (ESC) and motile aeromonad septicaemia (MAS), respectively. Twenty one strains were selected and their antagonistic activity against other aquatic pathogens was also tested. Each of the t...
