“…This study evaluated the effects of seven Lactobacillus strains as probiotics on the growth performance of broiler chickens: L. bifermentans W204.5, L. sanfranciscensis W205.6, L. sanfranciscensis W208.6, L. reuteri W218.2, L. reuteri W223.5, L. reuteri W227.3, and L. fermentum W227.5. Several other studies showed that multi-strain Lactobacillus supplements could be used as probiotics in commercial poultry production as they promote growth [58][59][60]. In a study by Ipek et al [61], 720 one-day-old Cobb 500 broiler chicks were assigned into four treatment groups that were administered diets consisting of control and three groups of different measures of probiotics and prebiotics (PPS), which included live Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain.…”

Probiotics are live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer health benefits to the host. The use of probiotics in poultry has increased steadily over the years due to higher demand for antibiotic-free poultry. The objective of this systematic review is to present and evaluate the effects of probiotics on the nutrient utilization, growth and laying performance, gut histomorphology, immunity, and gut microbiota of poultry. An electronic search was conducted using relevant keywords to include papers pertinent to the topic. Seventeen commonly used probiotic species were critically assessed for their roles in the performance and gut health of poultry under existing commercial production conditions. The results showed that probiotic supplementation could have the following effects: (1) modification of the intestinal microbiota, (2) stimulation of the immune system, (3) reduction in inflammatory reactions, (4) prevention of pathogen colonization, (5) enhancement of growth performance, (6) alteration of the ileal digestibility and total tract apparent digestibility coefficient, and (7) decrease in ammonia and urea excretion. Thus, probiotics can serve as a potential alternative to antibiotic growth promoters in poultry production. However, factors such as the intestinal health condition of birds, the probiotic inclusion level; and the incubation conditions, feedstuff, and water quality offered to birds may affect the outcome. This systematic review provides a summary of the use of probiotics in poultry production, as well as the potential role of probiotics in the nutrient utilization, growth and laying performance, and gut health of poultry.

“…Probiotics supplementation, either as single or mixed strains, in commercial poultry production, has indicated positive responses on productive performance (Olnood et al, 2015;de Souza et al, 2018;Deng et al, 2020;Lokapirnasari et al, 2020), nutrient absorption and digestibility (Li et al, 2008;Awad et al, 2010), immunity (Awad et al, 2009;Fathi et al, 2017), gut microflora and inhibition of pathogens (Giannenas et al, 2012;Giannenas et al, 2014;Ciurescu et al, 2020;Deng et al, 2020;Gheorghe et al, 2020). It was demonstrated that multiple-strain and multi-species probiotics could have a synergistic effect by acting on different sites and providing various modes of action (Timmerman et al, 2004;Kazemi et al, 2019).…”

The study evaluated the effects of a Lactobacillus strains probiotic mix on performance, carcass traits, organs size, and intestinal microflora in broilers. A total of 200 one-day-old unsexed broilers were allotted into 2 groups with 5 replicates (20 broilers/replicate). During the feeding trial (35 d) the broilers were fed with a control (basal diet) or probiotic (basal diet plus 3% probiotic mix L. acidophilus and L. plantarum, 1:1 ratio). The probiotic supplementation did not significantly influence the performance, carcass traits and organs size of broilers at slaughter age. No effect of probiotic supplementation on visceral weight or length was observed, except a higher of jejunum (P=0.007) and ileum (P=0.013) weights, and a tendency to higher the caecum length (P=0.070). The probiotic mix had no significant effect on the intestinal pH, but it improved the microflora by decreasing the Enterobacteria and E. coli counts and increasing the Lactobacilli counts and Lactobacilli: E. coli ratio in the ileum and caecum (P<0.05). In conclusion, the probiotic mix (L. acidophilus and L. plantarum mix, 1:1 ratio) did not significantly affect the productive performance but had a positive effect on broilers’ gut microflora.

“…The BWG results from this study are in agreement with the previous studies from Lan et al [ 33 ] Aluwong et al [ 34 ] Shahir et al [ 35 ], which demonstrated in chickens, both probiotics and prebiotics help to increase weight gain and reduce feed conversion ratio. Enhancement in growth performance and feed efficiency of broiler chickens which fed probiotics [ 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ] is a culmination of probiotic action like maintaining of beneficial microbial population [ 45 ], improving feed intake, digestion, [ 46 , 47 , 48 ] and altering bacterial metabolism [ 49 , 50 , 51 ]. Previous research also indicate that longer villi were observed in the ileum of chicks and turkeys treated with Lactobacillus reuteri [ 52 ] and the concentrations of amylase in broiler intestine were improved after supplementation of diet with Lactobacillus acidophilus or a mixture of Lactobacillus strains [ 44 , 53 , 54 ].…”

Effects of Lactobacillus reuteri and Streptomyces coelicolor on Growth Performance of Broiler Chickens

et al. 2021

There are well documented complications associated with the continuous use of antibiotics in the poultry industry. Over the past few decades, probiotics have emerged as viable alternatives to antibiotics; however, most of these candidate probiotic microorganisms have not been fully evaluated for their effectiveness as potential probiotics for poultry. Recent evaluation of a metagenome of broiler chickens in our laboratory revealed a prevalence of Lactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri) and Actinobacteria class of bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract. In this study Lactobacillus reuteri and Streptomyces coelicolor (S. coelicolor) were selected as probiotic bacteria, encapsulated, and added into broiler feed at a concentration of 100 mg/kg of feed. In an 8-week study, 240 one day-old chicks were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments. Three dietary treatments contained two probiotic bacteria in three different proportions (L. reuteri and S. coelicolor individually at 100 ppm, and mixture of L. reuteri and S. coelicolor at 50 ppm each). The fourth treatment had no probiotic bacteria and it functioned as the control diet. L. reuteri and S. coelicolor were added to the feed by using wheat middlings as a carrier at a concentration of 100 ppm (100 mg/kg). Chickens fed diets containing L. reuteri and S. coelicolor mixture showed 2% improvement in body weight gain, 7% decrease in feed consumption, and 6–7% decrease in feed conversion ratios. This research suggests that L. reuteri and S. coelicolor have the potential to constitute probiotics in chickens combined or separately, depending on the desired selection of performance index.
