“…The combined use of prebiotics and probiotics in animal feeds is advantageous to potentiate the animal response and constitutes a new concept in additives usage. This combination is a plausible alternative to improve herd health through synergistic effects, consequently, promoting animal performance and nutritional status [ 11 ].…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with live yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), mannan-oligosaccharides and the combination of these additives on the inflammatory response, ruminal parameters and rumen morphology of sheep fed a high grain-based diet. Thirty-Two Dorper x Santa Ines crossbred lambs with an average weight of 24±2 kg were distributed in a completely randomized design. The animals were housed in individual stalls and fed ad libitum. Diet treatments were: Control (without additive); LY (2 g/kg DM of live yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae), MOS (2 g/kg DM of mannan-oligosaccharides) and LY+MOS (2 g/kg DM of LY + 2 g/kg DM of MOS). The experiment lasted 42 days. The supplementation with MOS alone and the additives combination resulted in increased ruminal pH (P<0.01), while the total concentrations of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) in the rumen were higher (P<0.05) only in the diets with LY and MOS. Ammonia (NH3) concentration in the rumen decreased (P<0.04) with the additives usage. Diets with LY, MOS and with additives combination reduced (P<0.01) the levels of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in the plasma with values of 0.46; 0.44 and 0.04 EU/mL, respectively when compared to the control (0.93 EU/mL). MOS and LY+MOS treatments had reduced stratum corneum thickness (P<0.01) in comparison to the control treatment. The total thickness of ruminal epithelium was lower with the addition of MOS in the diet (P<0.03) than with LY additive. The incidence and severity of hepatic abscesses in animals whose diet was supplemented with LY and LY+MOS was lower (P<0.05) than in animals fed the control diet. The use of LY, MOS and LY+MOS in the high-concentrate diets for sheep reduced NH3 concentrations and LPS translocation into the bloodstream. Diets containing MOS and LY+MOS enhanced the health of the ruminal epithelium by reducing the thickness of the stratum corneum, and diets containing LY and LY+MOS decreased the incidence and severity of hepatic abscesses.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of diet supplementation with live yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) on ruminal parameters, nutrient digestibility, and the inflammatory response in cattle fed grain-based diets. Three Holstein steers (body weight of 497±3 kg) with ruminal and duodenal cannulas were assigned to a 3 × 3 Latin square design. The animals were kept in individual pens and fed a diet containing 5% sugarcane bagasse and 95% concentrate (906.5 g/kg ground corn). Diet treatments were Control (without additive), Yeast (1.5 g/kg DM live yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, NCYC 996) and MOS (1.5 g/kg DM MOS, β-glucans and mannan). Dry matter intake, ruminal, intestinal, and total digestibility of nutrients were not affected by the treatments. The ruminal concentration of isobutyric acid increased in animals fed on diets supplemented with Yeast and MOS, whereas isovaleric acid increased with Yeast and decreased with MOS supplementation. Dietary supplementation with Yeast and MOS increased pH and decreased ammonia concentration in the rumen. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) concentrations in the rumen and duodenal fluid were not influenced by the additives. However, both Yeast and MOS decreased the plasma levels of LPS and serum amyloid A (SAA). In conclusion, when high-concentrate diets fed to beef cattle are supplemented with either Yeast or MOS, ruminal pH is increased, LPS translocation into the blood stream is decreased, and blood SAA concentration is decreased. These factors reduce the inflammation caused by consumption of grain-based diets, and either supplement could be used to improve the rumen environment in beef cattle susceptible to ruminal subacute acidosis.

“…Bio-Mos ® , a feed element generated from yeast cell walls ( Saccharomyces cerevisiae ), is mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) where the primary constituents of yeast cell walls are mannans, glucans as well as chitin ( Hady et al , 2012 ). It improves digestion and gut health in animals by lessening local colonization of pathogenic microorganisms in the alimentary tract.…”

Background: Mannanoligosaccharides (MOS) usage in fish production has drawn more attention because of its positive benefits on disease resistance and fish performance. Aim: The ongoing research was executed to assess the potential advantages of Bio-Mos® dietary supplementation regarding the growth outcomes, physiological response, oxidative biomarkers and immunity linked gene expression in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings exposed to bacterial infection with Aeromonas hydrophila. Methods: Four experimental diets were developed using 30% protein baseline diet, with Bio-Mos® added at variable levels; 0.0, 0.5, 1 and 2 g/kg, respectively. 240 healthy Nile tilapia fingerlings were split into four groups at random and assigned into 12 glass aquarium (three replicates of 20 fish/ treatment). Diets were admitted at 3% rate of fish biomass/aquarium for 8 weeks. Following the feeding trial, fish from every treatment were intraperitoneally injected with pathogenic Aeromonas hydrophila, and then observed for 15 days to record the survival rate post challenge. Results: Results revealed significant improvement in growth performance, physiological response, immunological parameters (Phagocytic index, Phagocytic activity, lysozyme) and antioxidant parameters (catalase, malondialdehyde, glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase) among Bio-Mos® treated groups. Moreover, Bio-Mos® increased the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β, genes linked to the liver immune system. growth related genes (GHr), antioxidant related genes (SOD and GSH-Px). In fish subjected to pathogens, dietary MOS supplementation could significantly lower oxidative stress, showing promise as a preventative supplement for Nile tilapia in place of antibiotics. On the other hand, Bio-Mos®considerably improved each of the three intestinal morphological measures (villus width, villus length and crypt depth), showing the best overall intestinal structure-improving impact. The challenge with A. hydrophila caused marked degenerative alterations in the intestine, hepatopancreas, spleen and posterior kidney of Nile tilapia, in the control group. However, lesion severity was greatly decreased and showed marked amelioration with increased concentration of Bio-Mos®. The A. hydrophila challenged groups revealed 100% survival rate mainly among the Bio-Mos®supplemented groups. Conclusion: It is recommended to enrich the Nile tilapia fingerlings diets with 2 g.kg−1 of MOS for better results on growth rate, physiological response, immunological response and intestinal absorptive capacity.
