“…Some studies show significantly effect of phytoadditives on digestion, and in this way positive effect on nutrients utilization and lower feed costs (Fors, 2009). The effect of a blend of origanum, anise, and citrus fruit oils (dried form in 1 g per 1 kg of concentrated feed) were analyzed by Gálik et al (2013). The experiment lasted 90 days, and during the last week of the experiment apparent digestibility trial were performed.…”

“…Probably, these results were affecting by origanum, which might help in digestion by increasing bile flow (Steiner, 2009). This mixture can improve macroelements utilization in horse's nutrition also (Gálik et al, 2011). Authors analysed the commercial phytogenic additive on macroelements faecal digestibility in sport horses.…”

The aim of the paper was to analyse the origanum, anise and citrus oils blend as a potential phytogenic feed additive in horse's nutrition. Several studies in the World analyze the effect of plant origin aromatic additives on blood serum indicators and nutrients digestibility in horses. Origanum and anise contains many chemical compounds as carvacrol, thymol and anethol, which can be beneficially in metabolism and nutrients digestion. Some studies shows, that these additives have insignificant (P >0.05) effect on blood serum indicators, but there are some studies, which reported positive significant (P <0.05) effect on serum cholesterol and triglycerides contents. The main positive effect of origanum and anise is in nutrients digestibility improving. These herbs can improve the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, nitrogen free extract, crude fibre, ADF and NDF (P <0.05), as well as Mg and K from feed rations (P <0.05). Some antagonistic results published in this area can be affecting in dosage of active compounds, which have often antinutritive effects. Keywords

Probiotic bacteria or their antimicrobial proteinaceous substances called bacteriocins (enterocins) hold promising prophylactic potential for animal breeding. This study present the results achieved after application of Enterocin M in horses. Enterocin M has never been applied to horses before. Clinically healthy horses (10) were involved in this pilot experiment. They were placed in the stables of the University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy, Košice, Slovakia, with the approval of the University Ethics Committee. The animals were fed twice a day with hay and oats, or alternatively grazed with access to water ad libitum. The experiment lasted 6 weeks. Sampling was performed at the start of the experiment, at day 0-1, at day 21 (3 weeks of Enterocin M application), and at day 42 (3 weeks of cessation). Feces were sampled directly from the rectum and blood from the vena jugularis; the samples were immediately treated and/or stored for analyses. Each horse itself represented a control animal (compared to its status at the start of the experiment, day 0-1). After initial sampling, the horses were administered 100 μl of Ent M (precipitate, 12,800 AU/ml) in a small feed bolus to ensure it was consumed; Ent M was applied for 3 weeks (21 days). Fecal samples were treated using the standard microbial dilution method; phagocytic activity was assessed with standard and flow cytometry; biochemistry and metabolic profiles were tested using commercial kits and standard methods. Administration of Ent M led to mathematical reduction of coliforms, campylobacters (P < 0.05), and significant reduction of Clostridium spp. (P < 0.001, P< 0.001); increase of PA values was noted (P < 0.05, P < 0.0001); no negative influence on hydrolytic enzyme profile or biochemical blood parameters was noted.
