Abstract:Probiotics are suggested to improve pig health, nutrient utilisation, performance, and may reduce nitrogen (N) pollution. However, the effectivity of a single-strain might be different from a multi-strain. The study was conducted to investigate the effect of a novel Bacillus multi-strain on nutrient digestibility, energy utilisation, and N retention in weaned piglets. The experiment consisted of a control diet (CD) and a supplemented diet (SD). The probiotic used for SD consisted of B. amyloliquefaciens - 516 … Show more
