“…The capability of microbes to endure and flourish when exposed to antibiotics that they were initially vulnerable to is called antimicrobial resistance. Antibiotics are extensively misused and overused in humans, animals producing dairy and meat, aquaculture, and agriculture, and this unquestionably contributes to the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance [ 1 , 2 ]; resistance to antibiotics can be inherent or attained [ 3 – 5 ]. Inheritance of intrinsic resistance is a natural antimicrobial-resistant trait presented by some probiotic bacteria.…”

Background. Human life quality and expectancy have increased dramatically over the past 5 decades because of improvements in nutrition and antibiotic’s usage fighting against infectious diseases. Yet, it was soon revealed that the microbes adapted to develop resistance to any of the drugs that were used. Recently, there is great concern that commensal bacteria from food and the gastrointestinal tract of humans and animals could act as a reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes. Methodology. This study was intended for evaluating the phenotypic antibiotic resistance/sensitivity profiles of probiotic bacteria from human breast milk and evaluating the inhibitory effect of the probiotic bacteria against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Results. The results point out that some of the isolated bacteria were resistant to diverse antibiotics including gentamycin, imipenem, trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole, and nalidixic acid. Susceptibility profile to certain antibiotics like vancomycin, tetracycline, ofloxacin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, rifampicin, and bacitracin was also observed. The antimicrobial qualities of cell-free supernatants of some probiotic bacteria inhibited the growth of indicator bacteria. Also, antimicrobial properties of the probiotic bacteria from the present study attributed to the production of organic acid, bacterial adhesion to hydrocarbons (BATH), salt aggregation, coaggregation with pathogens, and bacteriocin production. Some isolated bacteria from human milk displayed higher hydrophobicity in addition to intrinsic probiotic properties like Gram-positive classification, catalase-negative activity, resistance to gastric juice (pH 2), and bile salt (0.3%) concentration. Conclusion. This study has added to the data of the antibiotic and antimicrobial activity of some probiotic bacteria from some samples of Pakistani women breast milk. Probiotic bacteria are usually considered to decrease gastrointestinal tract diseases by adhering to the gut epithelial and reducing population of pathogens and in the case of Streptococcus lactarius MB622 and Streptococcus salivarius MB620 in terms of hydrophobicity and exclusion of indicator pathogenic strains.

“…However, since of the bio-security pressures for population health, which come from mounting resistance of pathogens to antibiotics, there is a worldwide necessity for removal of antibiotics from poultry nutrition. The poultry industry's intensive broiler production sector is eager to maximize performance and reduce economic losses caused by the removal of antimicrobial growth promoters, as well as to guarantee the safety of broiler meat through the control or elimination of foodborne infections (Andleeb et al, 2020). In several scientific studies, the positive potential of different microorganisms and bioactive substances in improving animal performance and health has been emphasized (Misra et This paper aimed to determine the effects of medicinal plants and on the economic aspects of broilers.…”

Poultry meat production represents one of the most intensive production in poultry fattening. Broiler's production lasts on average 42 days, which enables quicker income of the employed resources. With the ban of dietary antibiotics usage in poultry meat production, new natural feed additives had to been engaged. This research aimed to investigate the effects of medicinal plants addition to broiler rations on the economic results of the production. Our results have reviled significantly (p<0.05) positive effects. Chickens on medicinal plants (T1) addition have recoded much higher total benefit at the end of production (698.1 €) than chickens on control (T2) treatment (335.6 €). Following the same tendency, the benefit per chicken was also higher in medicinal plant treatment (0.15:0.07 €) and profitability (8.01:3.59%). Upon the gained results, it can be assumed that usage of dietary, medicinal plants expresses a beneficial effect on the monitored economic parameters compared to broilers fed with commercial compound mixtures.

Antimicrobial Peptides Controlling Resistant Bacteria in Animal Production

In the last few decades, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been a worldwide concern. The excessive use of antibiotics affects animal and human health. In the last few years, livestock production has used antibiotics as food supplementation. This massive use can be considered a principal factor in the accelerated development of genetic modifications in bacteria. These modifications are responsible for AMR and can be widespread to pathogenic and commensal bacteria. In addition, these antibiotic residues can be dispersed by water and sewer water systems, the contamination of soil and, water and plants, in addition, can be stocked in tissues such as muscle, milk, eggs, fat, and others. These residues can be spread to humans by the consumption of water or contaminated food. In addition, studies have demonstrated that antimicrobial resistance may be developed by vertical and horizontal gene transfer, producing a risk to public health. Hence, the World Health Organization in 2000 forbid the use of antibiotics for feed supplementation in livestock. In this context, to obtain safe food production, one of the potential substitutes for traditional antibiotics is the use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). In general, AMPs present anti-infective activity, and in some cases immune response. A limited number of AMP-based drugs are now available for use in animals and humans. This use is still not widespread due to a few problems like in-vivo effectiveness, stability, and high cost of production. This review will elucidate the different AMPs applications in animal diets, in an effort to generate safe food and control AMR.
