Benefits of probiotics and/or prebiotics for antibiotic-reduced poultry

Abstract: Antibiotics have been used for many years as growth promoters. They contribute to build the immunocompetence (i.e. ability of the body to produce a normal immune response following exposure to an antigen) of birds against infectious diseases and as growth promoters. Antibiotics have been widely used as growth promoters in the field of animal production since 1940s. There is a hypothesis that is effect is brought about by dynamic biological interaction with the micro-flora in the intestine. In 1951, the United … Show more

“…Inclusion of wheat bran in the diet and particularly polysaccharides has been reported to be antioxidants, immunomodulators, anti-inflammatory, antitussive, anticancerous, and antimutagenic (1,(66)(67)(68). In addition, wheat bran and arabinoxylans have been shown to improve phagocytosis of macrophages in animal models.…”

“…The cost of poultry feed ingredients represent about 60-70% of the total production cost, and hence, feed formulation is a critical approach in poultry industry. Feed utilization can be met with inclusion of enzymes, antimicrobials, probiotics, or prebiotic or natural products (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9).…”

“…Within the last 30 years, the development of strategies to improve livestock production, to lower production cost and to reduce the negative environmental impacts of livestock production was of utmost importance for nutritional scientists, microbiologists and biochemists. Supplementation of livestock feed with, for example antibiotics as well as a number of probiotics and/or probiotics have been exploited to achieve the aforementioned goals (Al‐Khalaifah ). However, in the past 14 years, application of antibiotics in animal production has faced decreasing social acceptance due to toxic effects in animals, the development of bacterial resistance, side effects on human health and a negative impact on the safety and quality of products derived from livestock and poultry such as meat, dairy and eggs.…”

“…There is a considerable amount of research on the effects of probiotics on microbiota composition, integrity of the mucosal barrier, and immunomodulation to control inflammation, aiming to improve feed efficiency and performance and to reduce pathogenic infections without the use of antibiotics in poultry [10,[18][19][20][21][22]. However, gaps in the knowledge make it difficult to study and select the most relevant modes of action of probiotics in the GIT.…”
