Influence of fermented feeds on the microbiome of the gastrointestinal tract and efficiency in animal nutrition

The gut microbiome of animals varies by species, age, sex, and nutrition. content nutrients in the diet as well feed additives (synbiotics, eubiotics, phytobiotics) determine quantity quality intestinal flora. ban on use antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) has led to search for various effective alternatives that affect microbiome, animal health production results. It been shown fermented feeds, beneficially modifying composition flora, can be a significant alternative AGP breeding monogastric animals. feeds wet nutrition or dry mixtures contributes improvement nutritional value increasing protein exogenous amino acids polyunsaturated fatty acids, reducing anti-nutritional substances (glucosinolates, phytates, β-glycinates) (rapeseed, soybean, lupins, horse bean) concentration beneficial microorganisms (Bacillus Lactobacillus) their products (bacteriocins, organic acids).
