Zagro's Gut Bio is a synbiotic supplement composing of stable probiotics and prebiotics, used for the prevention and treatment of enteric diseases and promotes the gut health.
2. ✓ Gut pathogenic microrganisms are
ultimately the cause of gastrointestinal
infections in animals which reduce
intestinal health and contribute to
reduced animal performance.
✓ Even in the absence of disease, both
opportunistic and overtly pathogenic
microrganisms can be isolated from the
gastrointestinal tract .
GUT Pathogens
3. Enteric diseases are major economic concern
in the poultry/animal industry.
➢ Affecte the productivity
➢ Affecte gut health
➢ Increase the mortality
➢ Bacterial contamination of animal meat
Impacts
4. Major Bacterial Diseases
Caused by Diseases
E.Coli Colibacillosis
Salmonella
spp. including
pullorum and
gallinarum
Salmonellosis, Enteritis
Clostridium sps
Necrotic Enteritis (NE),
Botulism
5. ➢ The use of antibiotic growth promoters (AGP) to enhance the
efficiency of agricultural animals has been practiced for over 50
years
➢ The types of antibiotics used as growth promoters include
tetracyclines, penicillins, sulfonamides, and aminoglycosides
➢ The action of AGP’s takes place in the gut of animal where they alter
the micro flora environment.
➢ When antibiotics are added to animal feed for prolonged periods of
time, populations of pathogenic bacterial flora develop resistance to
that antibiotic and can become dominant in the gut
Antibiotic Growth Promoters (AGPs)
6. ➢ Antibiotic-resistant bacteria
➢ Affect the gut normal flora
➢ Residues problem related to human health
Disadvantages of Antibiotics Usage
7. Increased gut health = Reduced pathogenic load
Micro flora balance in Chicken GIT
8. ➢ Common terms for Probiotics are friendly,
beneficial or healthy bacteria.
➢ Probiotics are live, nonpathogenic bacteria
that contribute to the health and balance
of the intestinal tract.
➢ Given orally to animal for help to prevent
the intestinal disease
Probiotics
9. 1. Competition with pathogenic bacteria for space,
intestinal attachment sites and nutrients
2. Change of environmental conditions in the
intestine (Lowering of pH through increased
production of volatile fatty acids (VFA) and lactic
acid)
3. Production of antimicrobial substances
(lactoferrin, lysozyme, bacteriocins... "Natural
antibiotics“)
4. Modulation of intestinal immune response
Probiotics
10. ➢ Acid resistant
➢ Antimicrobial activity
➢ Beneficial effect and not cause any harmful
effects to animals
➢ Bile salt tolerant
➢ GI tract colonization properties
➢ To produce metabolites and enzyme
➢ Good viable strain
Characteristics of Good Probiotics
11. 1. Should be a strain which is capable of
exerting a beneficial effect on the host
animal, e.g. increase the growth
2. Should be non-pathogenic and non-
toxic
3. Should be present as viable cells,
preferably in large numbers
4. Should be capable of surviving and
metabolizing in the gut environment, e.g.
resistant to low pH and organic acids
5. Should be stable and capable of
remaining viable for long periods under
storage and field conditions
Good Probiotics
12. ✓ Probiotics, competitive exclusion and direct
fed microbial feed /water supplements can
be used as a strategic tool for managing
beneficial microbial populations.
✓ Applied to farm animal nutrition to improve
feed conversion and increase the Weight
gains
✓ Functional digestive system development
in young animals.
✓ Inhibition effect against pathogens, their
optimizing influence on digestive
processes, their stimulating effect on the
immune system
Probiotics in Animals
13. ✓ Non-digestible food ingredients
✓ Beneficially affect the host by selectively
stimulating the growth and activity of one
or a limited number of bacteria in the colon.
✓ Nutrients to beneficial microbes
✓ Tricking pathogenic bacteria into attaching
to the oligosaccharide rather than to the
intestinal mucosa.
✓ Reduced the intestinal pathogenic bacteria
colonization thereby decreasing the
incidence of infection in the birds.
Prebiotics
14. Antibiotics vs Probiotics vs Prebiotics
Antibiotics Probiotics Prebiotics
Antibiotics are agents
produced by
microorganisms (bacteria,
virus, fungi or destroy
them)
Probiotics are live microbial
feed supplements that
beneficially affect the host
animal by improving its
microbial balance.
Prebiotics are non-digestible
food ingredients that
beneficially affect the host by
selectively stimulating the
growth/or activity of a limited
number of bacteria in the
colon / intestine and thus
improve host health.
Pure chemical compound
synthetic in origin or
produced from bacteria or
fungi.
Living microorganisms which
are singly or combination of
friendly bacteria /yeast.
Non-digestible feeding
ingredients, i.e., chemical
compounds like
oligosaccharides.
Absorbed in GI tract. Not absorbed in GT tract. Not absorbed in GT tract
15. Antibiotics Probiotics Prebiotics
Tissue residues remain in animal
product which may be harmful
to consumers.
No tissue residues No tissue residues
May cause mutation of other
microorganisms and thus
leading to resistant strains
Cause no mutation of
microorganisms
Cause no mutation of microorganisms.
Blocks living cells
(microorganisms) DNA, RNA or
protein synthesis.
Produce acid, reduce pH
and discourage growth of
pathogenic
microorganisms
It leads to production of butyrate and
other SCFA which are quickly absorbed and
can serve as an energy surce for host.
Broad spectrum of activity. Possess localized
antimicrobial activity.
Control lower gut environment,
metabolism and disease prevention.
Use in feed in sub-therapeutic
level and shows growth
promotion of action.
Proliferate in the digestive
tract and compete with
the pathogenic bacteria.
Act as anticarcinogenic, antimicrobial,
hypolipidemic and glucose modulatory
activities improve mineral absorption and
balance and antisteoprotic activity.
Antibiotics vs Probiotics vs Prebiotics
16. ❑ Potentially reduce enteric diseases in
animals and also enhance their
productivity.
❑ These substances have been proposed to
assist in the prevention of carcass
contamination and improve the immune
response.
Probiotics + Prebiotics (synbiotic)
18. ❑ Zagro Gut bio is symbiotic combination
of multi species of beneficial microbes
with two Prebiotics compounds such as
FOS and MOS for prevent and treatment
of enteric diseases and promotes the gut
health
❑ Maintain a healthy gut flora.
❑ Good alternatives of antibiotics
Gut Bio WSP
