ProBiotein® Multi-Prebiotic and Postbiotic

1 of 2 products in this brand
ProBiotein® Multi-Prebiotic and Postbiotic yeast, made from organic wheat, organic oats, organic flax, organic barley malt, organic flax meal and nutritional yeast. These grains are fermented to remove the starches (zero net carbs), concentrate the proteins, provide nutritional yeast (saccharomyces cerevisiae – non active) and prebiotic plant fibers. ProBiotein’s prebiotic fibers are AXOS (arabino-xylo oligosaccharide), XOS (xylo oligosaccharide), MOS (mannan oligosaccharide), FOS (fructo oligosaccharide) and Beta-glucan. ProBiotein gives baked bread a great taste while providing prebiotic fibers that the body’s resident probiotic bacteria use to thrive for supported immunity and health.

Describing the Ileal Microbiota Development in Broilers When Fed Varying Levels of a Yeast Fermentate Product

Introduction

As the poultry industry continues to remove anitbiotic growth promoters from ever being introduced during rearing, alternatives continue to be explored that can improve performance and promote the health of the bird, including through gastrointestinal modulation. Previously, yeast-derived fermentation products have previously been shown to potentially modulate the gastrointestinal microbiota composition, which has implications on bird health and development.

Objective

The objective of the current research was to determine the effects on the ileal microbiota development in broilers fed increasing levels of a yeast-derived fermentation product, ProBiotein®.

Hypothesis

We hypothesized that supplementating ProBiotein® would beneficially alter the ileal microbial ecology.

Methods

  • 400 male Ross 308 chicks were placed into batteries, where 10 birds each were placed into a total of 40 pen between two batteries. On d 14, birds were moved to 8 floor pens, where all chicks receiving the same treatment from each battery (4 pens) were combined into a single floor pen such that the same blocking design was followed. Birds were fed an industrystandard least cost diet supplemented with the following treatments: 0.00% PB + 0.75% sand; 0.20% PB + 0.55% sand; 0.50% PB + 0.25% sand; 0.75% PB.
  • On d 14 and 42, 10 birds per treatment were euthanized and their ileal contents were expressed. The genomic DNA were extracted and samples were sequenced on an Ilumina MiSeq platform. Data were analyzed in QIIME2 for the main effects of treatment and day, and the interaction between. Alpha diversity was analyzed through ANOVA with pairwise differences separated through Kruskal-Wallis. Beta diversity was analyzed through ADONIS, with pariwise differences separated through ANOSIM.

Conclusion

Day was a driving factor in the development of the ileal microbiota composition, but these differences were altered and magnified due to treatment supplementation level. Taxonomical compositions varied due to treatment, with differing relative abundances of previously reported beneficial fermentative taxa, such as Lactobacillus, Peptostreptococcus, Butyriciccocus, and Weisella. Though the overall relationships between ileal microbiota and the host have not been fully elucidated, but have been suggested to promote the immune system's development and alter growth performance, The current results suggest ProBiotein® modulates the microbiota composition and development and may be a beneficial feed amendment for inclusion in poultry diets.

 

Impact of a Yeast Fermentate on Salmonella Typhimurium Control in an In Vitro Broiler Intestinal Model

Introduction

  • 9 million Americans suffer from foodborne illness per year1
    • 40% attributed to land animals
  • Salmonella enterica are among the most isolated foodborne pathogens from livestock1,2,3
  • Modulation of the broiler gastrointestinal (GIT) microbiota through the use of in-feed supplements has been an effective measure to reduce foodborne pathogens4

  • Time impacted pH more than treatment
  • Numerically, 1.25% had lowest pH at 24 h (5.35 pH)
  • Treatment 1.25% (-3.604 Log CFU/mL) had greater change in Salmonella than 0.25% (-1.748)
