“…Pesquisas recentes com "produtos naturais" desenvolvidos para higienização de tetos apresentaram resultados compatíveis com os aqui obtidos ao se comparar o uso de bacteriocinas (Klostermann, et al, 2010), probióticos (Yu, et al, 2017;Alawneh, et al, 2020), do extrato hidroalcoólico de T. minuta (Schiavon, et al, 2011), e de água ozonizada (Cavalcante, et al, 2013), quando comparado com uso de água, produto contendo iodo e produto contendo clorexidine, respectivamente.…”

O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a eficácia de um novo produto elaborado a base de óleo essencial de alecrim pimenta sob a redução da contagem de microrganismos presentes na pele de tetos de vacas leiteiras. Para o teste in vivo, avaliou-se a eficácia do novo produto sob a antissepsia de negativos para mastite clínica (192 tetos), em comparação ao tratamento que continha produtos comerciais (192 tetos), durante um período de 42 dias. Os tetos foram diariamente acompanhados clinicamente, havendo semanalmente avaliação da microbiota presente na pele dos mesmos quanto à redução na contagem de Staphylococcus aureus, Estafilococos coagulase negativo (ECN), Echerichia coli e aeróbios mesófilos. Os dois produtos mantiveram a integridade dos tetos, sendo observado ausência de mastite clínica durante o período experimental. Não observou-se diferença significativa na ocorrência de mastite subclínica e de microrganismos nos tetos dos dois grupos em estudo pelo teste de Fisher em nível de significância de 5%. Ao comparar a redução Log da contagem em UFC.mL-1 dos microrganismos para o grupo tratado com produto convencional e com produto experimental para aeróbios mesófilos, E. coli, S. aureus e Estafilococos coagulase negativa, obtidos com o processo de higienização dos tetos foi observada diferença estatística(p>0,05), na contagem de microrganismos, evidenciando que ambos apresentaram efeito semelhante ao controle de microrganismos presentes na pele dos tetos. Sendo assim, o novo produto contendo óleo essencial de alecrim pimenta apresentou eficácia semelhante ao produto convencional clorexidine e iodo para antissepsia dos tetos de vacas leiteiras sem promover reações locais na pele, podendo este vir a ser utilizado como produto alternativo no manejo de ordenha.

There are many reports of the positive effects of probiotics on gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microorganisms and the immunological systems of their hosts. Probiotics have prophylactic and metaphylactic properties. The two main mechanisms of action of probiotics seem to be the release of compounds with beneficial effects and direct interaction with the cells of the host. The aim of this review was to evaluate the benefits of probiotic use in farm animals and to identify how they influence farm animal performance. The published data suggest that dietary supplementation of probiotics can improve the growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and immune response of farm animals, including cows, sheep, goats, pigs, aquacultures, and poultry. In ruminants, studies have shown that probiotics can significantly enhance the immune response, milk yield, food digestibility, and weight gain, particularly in ruminants exposed to stressful conditions. This is also the case in aquaculture as probiotics have been shown to enhance growth and reproduction traits, provide protection against pathogens, have positive effects on immunity, optimize digestion, and increase water quality. In horses, there is still controversy about the advantages of probiotic supplementation. In addition, some studies showed valuable effects of using probiotics on treatments of GIT diseases, and some studies showed adverse effects of supplementation of probiotics in horses. In poultry, balancing the intestinal microflora is not achievable but controlling the population of microflora is possible and studies showed that supplementation of probiotics could influence some aspects such as improving performance and health parameters. So, probiotics are used by almost all farmers who are trying to reduce antibiotic resistance. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of probiotics to farm animals has many notable influences on their performance, immune system, and diet digestion.

“…Studies also showed that by stimulating GH/IGF-1 hormone, both Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can upgrade intestinal maturation and growth competency [39]. Improved mammary gland condition along with the improved functions of the teat sphincter were observed by the effect of Lactobacillus base teat spray [40]. Chen et al [41,42] showed improved microbial fermentation and high rumen microbial growth performance by the addition of Rhodopseudomonas palustris.…”

Biotechnological advances in animal health and nutrition continue to play a significant role in the improvement of animal health, growth, and production performance. These biotechnological advancements, especially the use of direct-fed microbials, also termed probiotics, those genetically modified and otherwise, have minimized many challenges facing livestock production around the world. Such advancements result in healthy animals and animal products, such as meat, for a growing population worldwide. Increasing demand for productivity, healthy animals, and consumer food safety concerns, especially those emanating from excessive use of antibiotics or growth promoters, are a driving force for investing in safer alternatives, such as probiotics. The advent of vastly diverse pathogens and bacterial organisms, some of which have acquired antimicrobial resistance due to therapeutic use of these antibiotics, has had a negative impact on the animal and food industries. Probiotics have been chosen as substitutes to counter this excessive use of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance. Over the last decade, probiotics have gained recognition, increased in importance, and stimulated growing interest in the animal health and nutrition industry. Probiotics are considered to be favorable live microorganisms by the host organism by maintaining microbial homeostasis and healthy gut, and can be a viable alternative to antibiotics in addition to providing other growth-promoting properties. Even though various studies describe the modes of action of probiotics, more research is needed to illuminate the exact mechanism of action of probiotics and how they benefit the host. This review describes the importance of probiotics in animal health, nutrition, and in growth and production performance. It also provides a thorough review of recent advances in probiotics research and application in animal health and nutrition and future directions on probiotic research to enhance animal performance.
