“…The physiological value of normal biocenosis is characterized by a high titer of bifidobacteria and E. coli , which have high antagonistic properties that prevent the development of pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms [ 68 , 74 , 76 , 77 ]. The main groups of microorganisms’ comparative characteristics in the intestinal contents showed that spore bacteria’s probiotic effect did not affect lacto- and bifidobacteria in lambs.…”

Objectives: Probiotics are well documented for their health benefits by developing a balanced intestinal microbiota and boosting immunity. The present study was conducted to determine the effects of a probiotic preparation Enzimsporin TM (consisting of spore-forming bacteria Bacillus subtilis B-2998D, B-3057D, and Bacillus licheniformis B-2999D) on the biochemical, hematological, immunological parameters, intestinal microbiota, and growth dynamics of sheep and lambs. Materials and Methods: Enzimsporin was fed to lambs and sheep at different doses to determine the bacteria’s probiotic effects. Sheep were divided into three groups (six each), which received 0, 1, and 3 gm of Enzimsporin/per head/day, respectively, and two groups of lambs (10 each), who received 0 gm and 1 gm of Enzimsporin/per head/day for 30 days in addition to their regular ration. On day 30, blood samples were collected, followed by the determination of biochemical, hematological, and natural resistance indicators. Fecal samples were examined to determine the intestinal microflora, and animals were weighed daily to determine their growth dynamics. Results: Supplementation of probiotics (Enzimsporin TM ) improved the lambs’ body weight gain by 18.8%. Analysis of the clinical parameters showed improvements in the levels of total protein, globulins, and urea by 5.3%, 10.8%, and 6.2%, respectively, in the blood of probiotic-supplemented lambs. Similarly, an increment in the total protein, albumins, and globulins was observed in the sheep with Enzimsporin TM supplementation. The decrease in bilirubin and cholesterol levels in the blood and increased bactericidal and phagocytic index in the sheep and lambs with probiotic supplementation indicated a positive influence of Enzimsporin TM on the liver function and natural resistance. Furthermore, an increase in Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium and a decrease in the Escherichia coli , Enterococcus , and Yeast in the fecal contents of experimental sheep and lambs indicated the potentiality of Enzimsporin TM on maintaining good gut health. Conclusion: Spore-forming bacteria B. subtilis B-2998D, B-3057D, and B. licheniformis B-2999D can be used in feeding sheep and lambs of 2 months of age to increase body weight gain, improve intestinal microbiota, strengthen the immune system, and maintain normal metabolic processes.

“…Ipek et al (2008) reported that lower levels of humic acid did not have an influence on total antioxidant capacity, but high levels reduced total antioxidant capacity in Japanese quails. Tunç & Yörük (2017) found that humate additives had a positive effect on the suckling period of calves, which can lead to oxidative stress. Therefore, because of effects of SH and FWBPs on antioxidant enzymes and other parameters investigated in the present study at 21 d and 42 d, the inclusion level and administration period of the two additives should be investigated when they are used in broilers.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of two biomacromolecules, fermented wheat bran polysaccharides (FWBPs) and sodium humate (SH), on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, digestive enzyme activity, antioxidant status, and immunity of broilers. A total of 144 male, one-day-old Arbor Acres broilers were randomly divided into three dietary groups: control (CON), 0.4% FWBPs, and 0.1% SH, with six replicates of eight birds. The FWBPs and SH groups had a greater body weight (BW) at 21 and 42 d, average daily weight gain (ADG) in the starter period, average daily feed intake (ADFI) in the overall period, and feed-to-gain ratio (F:G) in the grower period. However, the ADFI was decreased by FWBPs supplementation and increased by SH supplementation in the grower period. The dry matter (DM) and organic matter (OM) digestibility were higher in the SH group at 21 d. At 21 d, the FWBPs group had an increased duodenal trypsin and serum glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity and immunoglobulin M (IgM) concentration, and a decreased liver malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration. The SH group had increased duodenal lipase activity, serum IgM, and interleukin-2 concentrations but decreased liver MDA concentrations. At 42 d, FWBPs and SH supplementation decreased duodenal trypsin and chymotrypsin and serum superoxide dismutase activity. Jejunum chymotrypsin activity and liver MDA content were decreased in the SH group. In conclusion, dietary FWBPs or SH supplementation during the starter period can improve growth performance and nutrient digestibility and enhance antioxidant capacity and immunity of broilers.

“…It is expected to become one of the new feed additives to replace antibiotics. Studies have shown that FuA could improve growth performance and meat quality in growing-finishing pigs and juvenile loaches ( Bai et al, 2013 ; Chang et al, 2013 ; Gao et al, 2017 ), stimulate the immune response of rats and Litopenaeus vannamei ( Vucskits et al, 2010 ; Gutiérrez-Dagnino et al, 2015 ), increase the shear force and intramuscular fat level of calf meat and decrease the pH of the meat ( Leeuw et al, 2017 ; Mokotedi et al, 2018 ), and reduce the number of harmful pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli in the intestinal tract of calves ( Tunc and Yoruk, 2017 ). FuA could also increase milk yield and reduce cholesterol levels in whole blood and serum in dairy goats ( Degirmencioglu and Ozbilgin, 2013 ; Degirmencioglu, 2014 ), decrease the rate of carbohydrate degradation ( Majewska et al, 2017 ) and also increase the number of rumen protozoa ( Kara and Buda, 2016 ) in sheep.…”
