“…Another important aspect of the intestinal system that impacts broiler health and performance is its microbial population. Intestinal colonization with beneficial populations, like lactic acid, prevents the colonization with pathogens, such as E. coli (Shen et al, 2006).…”

The effect of egg powder inclusion in the pre-starter diet (1-7 days of age) on the performance, and intestinal morphology and microbiology of male broiler chickens was evaluated in a completely randomized design. Starter diets with equal metabolizable energy and crude protein levels were formulated to contain 0, 20, 40, or 60 g egg powder/kg diet. Results showed that body weight, feed intake, feed conversion ratio, and European efficiency index were positively affected (p≤0.05) by egg powder inclusion in the starter diet. Inclusion of 40 g egg powder/kg diet in the starter diet promoted the best performance results. Jejunal villus height and villus to crypt ratio increased (p≤0.05) and intestinal length decreased (p≤0.05) as a result of egg powder inclusion in the starter diet. Egg powder inclusion in the starter diet reduced (p≤0.05E. coli counts, but increased (p≤0.05) lactic acid bacteria counts in the small intestine. The results obtained in the present study indicate that the inclusion of 40 60 g egg powder/kg of starter diet g improved the performance and intestinal health of broilers.

“…On the other hand, Fiocco et al (2008) recently validated a viable housekeeping gene, Dlactate dehydrogenase (ldhD), which could be applied to real-time reverse transcription PCR (real-time RT-PCR) as a reference gene to study heat, cold and ethanol stress responses in L. plantarum. L. plantarum LP-Onlly (CGMCC NO.1258) is a probiotic strain isolated from the gastrointestinal tract of healthy adults by Shanghai Jiao Da Onlly that is known to be able to improve the intestinal microbial balance in rats and humans (Qin et al 2006;Shen et al 2005;Chinese Patent NO. ZL 200410093213.X).…”

The influence of pH on the heat stress response of a human-derived probiotic strain of Lactobacillus plantarum, LP-Onlly, was investigated. The heat resistance of mid-log-and stationary-phase cells that were heatadapted (45°C) in cultures that were or were not pH adjusted (pH 4.3-7.0) was evaluated at a lethal temperature of 55°C. The results demonstrated that the heat resistance of heat-adapted stationary-phase cells increased sharply as the pH for heat adaptation in cultures was adjusted from pH 4.3 (non-adjusted pH) to pH 7.0 step by step (pH 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, and 7.0); however, the mid-log-phase cells did not show the similar pH-related trend. The optimal adjusted pH for heat adaptation in cultures was found to be 6.5, with stationary-phase cells that were heat-adapted at pH 6.5 exhibiting a 3.4-log-cycle increase in heat resistance and 6-fold greater storage stability than controls. Real-time reverse transcription PCR analysis of five major heat shock protein genes (dnak, dnaJ, grpE, groES, and groEL) revealed that the heat-inductive expression of these genes after heat adaptation was up-regulated in stationary-phase cells when the pH in cultures for heat adaptation was adjusted from 4.3 (non-adjusted pH) to 6.5. Nevertheless, the transcription levels of these genes after heat adaptation was down-regulated in mid-log-phase cells when the pH in cultures for heat adaptation was shifted from 6.0 (nonadjusted pH) to 6.5.

“…The effect of probiotics on the cytoskeleton of tight junctions came to light when intact epithelial cell junctions were investigated using electron microscopy (Shen et al, 2006). Tight junction permeability is influenced by the hormone zonulin, which is involved in the movement of molecules from intestine into the blood stream and vice versa (Shen et al, 2006).…”

“…Tight junction permeability is influenced by the hormone zonulin, which is involved in the movement of molecules from intestine into the blood stream and vice versa (Shen et al, 2006). The protective action of zonulin was reported in response to the administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs when the animals were dosed with Lactobacillus (Buts et al, 2002).…”

The increase in the productivity of the poultry industry has been accompanied by various impacts, including the emergence of a large variety of pathogens and bacterial resistance to antibiotics. These impacts are in part due to the haphazard use of chemotherapeutic agents as a result of management practices during the rearing period. Probiotic bacteria are defined as live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host. This paper provides a review of the use of probiotics for the prevention of enteric disease in poultry, probiotic selection, isolation, colonisation and attachment within gastrointestinal tract, and the potential role of probiotics in nutrient metabolism. Understanding how probiotic bacteria exert their beneficial effect is crucial for the establishment of definitive selection criteria.

Influences of enteral nutrition combined with probiotics on gut microflora and barrier function of rats with abdominal infection

Abstract: Application of EN combined with probiotics could improve the expression of transmembrane binding proteins (occludin) and IgA, correct the intestinal flora disturbance, maintain gut barrier functions and tight junctions, and reduce the occurrence of gut bacterial translocation.
