Probiotics
“Living microorganisms, which upon
ingestion in certain numbers, exert
health effects beyond inherent basic
nutrition” (Guarner, 1998)
First reported by Elie Matchnikoff (1907)
Term coined in 1965 (Lilly and Stillwell, 1965)
Lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacilli,
Bifidobacteria and Enterococci)
Yeasts
Safe as opposed to antibiotics (Reid 2000)
Desirable properties
Survivability in acidic pH of stomach (Dunne et al. 2001)
Resistance to digestion by bile
Ability to adhere to intestinal epithelium
Antimicrobial substances (Kailaspathy et al. 2000)
Inactivation of procarcinogen (Perdigon et al. 2001)
Self GRAS (Weese and Anderson, 2002)
Mode of action
Antimicrobial substance
Competitive exclusion
Anticholesterolemic and antilipidemic factors
(Kim and Lee 2005)
Modulation of the immune system
Antitumor activity
Decrease toxic amines and ammonia
Sparing effect
Increase GI tone and motility (Dunne et al. 2001)
Effect of probiotics on animal
performance
Mixed response reported
Type of strain
Single or multiple?

encountered through the enteric route”
(Strobel and Mowet, 1998)

Choosing probiotics
Type of immune cells stimulated (Inflammatory or
specific immune response)
Most active strain
Dose required for maximum effect?
When to be administered?
Is it safe to use probiotics in immunosuppressed
host?
Storage quality
Future prospects
Species identification and their use needed to
be quantified
Identification of direct cause and effect
needed
Reduced inflammation either at local or
systemic level?
Can they be used as adjuvants for oral
immunisation?
Modulation of MALT or a systemic immune
response?
Conclusions
No clear cut evidence observed on the effect
of probiotics on production aspect of animals
Competitive exclusion is beneficial in early
phase of life to prevent diarrheal occurrences
Probiotics modulate immunity of host through
enhanced mucosal immunity (non specific as
well as specific)
Can be used as prophylactic measures to
enhance health status of the animals
