Immune modulation by Bacillus subtilis-based direct-fed microbials in commercial broiler chickens

2015-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Direct-fed microbials (DFMs), also known as probiotics, have been successfully used to improve the balance of gut microbiota. Spores of Bacillus subtilis, have been used as DFMs for food animals and humans and our previous studies showed that dietary supplementation of broiler chickens with a B. subtilis DFM from hatch enhanced innate immunity and improved protection against avian coccidiosis. In two experiments,...
