“…The results indicated that GalliPro ® nutrients did not affect carcass characteristics (Table 6). These results are in agreement with Pelicano et al (2003Pelicano et al ( , 2005 who reported that, carcass and meat quality did not show alteration when the control group was compared to birds fed probiotics, except for leg yield improvement in the latter. Also, study of Toghyani et al (2011) indicated that carcass yield and relative organ weights were not influenced by dietary probiotic and prebiotic.…”

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the nutrients equivalency value of Bacillus subtilis spore (GalliPro ® ) for broiler chickens and its potential for decreasing feed nutrients concentration and cost. A total of 720 day old Ross 308 broiler chicks was allocated in 6 treatments (2 sexes×3 diets) with 6 replication for 7 weeks. Dietary treatments: main treatment (MT) was routine broiler diet added 0.2 g/kg GalliPro ® (Bacillus subtilis 4×10 9 CFU/g DSM 17299) and using nutrients equivalency of GalliPro ® for feed formulation; negative control (NC) was the same as main treatment without GalliPro ® (subtracted the nutrients equivalent value of GalliPro ® ); positive control (PC) was the same as MT diet in nutrients content but without GalliPro ® . Effect of dietary treatments on body weight (BW) was not significant. However, the average BW of male and female chicks receiving negative control diet was 2.0% (68 g) lower than PC and MT groups (P>0.05). Dietary treatments had no significant effect on average daily feed intake. Feed conversion ratio of chicks receiving PC and MT diets were 2.7% better than NC chicks (P<0.01). Male chicks were superior to female in all measured traits (P<0.01). Effect of treatments on carcass characteristics was not significant. There was no interaction between factors on measured parameters. Performance of chicks receiving diet with GalliPro ® compared with PC showed that GalliPro ® liberated 0.4 crude protein from MT diet and consequently decreased the broiler feeding cost.

“…This is evidenced from the weights of the organs like the gizzard, liver, heart, lungs, crop and proventriculus in the E 2 and E 3 groups, respectively. On the contrary, Pelicano et al [44] reported lower pre-slaughter weights of animals treated with Bacillus subtilis in comparison with chickens fed multi-strain probiotic (Lactobacillus streptococcus, Bifidobacterium, Aspergillus) feed. Abdominal fat represents the main fat deposition in broiler chickens, and it seems to be directly related to total carcass fat (Santoso et al [53], Gaya et al [17]).…”

ABSTRACT. In poultry, the benefits of probiotic supplementation on broiler performance and health have been reported. The present study examined the effect of supplemental yeast probiotic preparations on body weight, thyroid hormone metabolism and serum lipid profile in broilers. The experiment was carried out on hybrid Marshall broiler chickens (n=200). Two hundred 1-day-old chicks were randomly selected and distributed into 4 groups of 50 1-day-old chicks each (control, C; E 1 0.5%, E 2 1.5% and E 3 2.0%, experimental groups). The birds were housed in an environmentally controlled poultry house with the floor covered with wood shavings. Chicks were fed commercial broiler starter diet for the first 28 days of age, followed by pelleted finisher diet from 29-42 days. Feed and water were provided ad libitum. Chickens fed 2.0% probiotic had a significantly (P<0.05) higher body weight when compared with the control group. The blood glucose concentration was significantly (P<0.05) different in the E 3 1.5% probiotic supplemented group when compared with the control. There was highly significant (P<0.05) difference in T 4 level in the E 3 2.0% probiotic group when compared with the control. However, there was a significant difference in cholesterol concentrations observed in the experimental group supplemented with E 1 0.5% probiotic. The concentration of triglycerides was not affected by the probiotic supplementation. Significant differences (P<0.01) were observed in HDL concentrations in all experimental groups supplemented with the probiotic when compared with the control group. In conclusion, supplementing broiler feeds with a yeast probiotic increased body weight, enhanced thyroid hormone metabolism, and decreased cholesterol and lipoproteins in broiler chickens.

“…Other authors found no significant differences in cooking loss or shear force of broiler meat between birds that were fed probiotics and control birds (Pelicano et al, 2003;Pelicia et al, 2004;Pelicano et al 2005). …”

Probiotics are widely accepted as an alternative to in-feed antibiotics in poultry production. The objective of investigation was to research the effect of probiotic preparation YEASTURE-W for growth performance, meat and carcass quality of broiler chicks. The experiment was performed with 120 Hybro-PN broiler chickens 1−56-day-old, divided into 2 groups of 60 birds each. The both groups were fed crumbled feed mixtures ad libitum. The feed mixture of the experimental group was supplemented with probiotic preparation YEASTURE-W (2 kg/t feed). The birds were maintained on deep litter and watered from stationary watering containers. The results of experiments indicated, that probiotic preparation YEASTURE-W during all experiment period increased the weight of broiler chickens by 10% (P<0.001) and decreased feed conversion ratio by 9% (P<0.005) comparing with control group. A probiotic showed a tendency to improve the carcass yield and improve the yield of edible parts of broiler chickens. The culinary and chemical properties of poultry became better.
