Influence of a probiotic preparation based on spot-forming bacteria on the piglets' organism

The aim of the research is to study the effect of a probiotic preparation based on spore-forming bacteriums on the organism of piglets. The objectives of the research are to study the effects of probiotic “Vetom 1.1” on the blood composition and intestinal microfl of young pigs. The object of the study was suckling pigs of a large white breed of the live-stock complex of the “Enterprise RubiKOM” of Pavlodar Region (Republic of Kazakhstan) in the period of their preparation for weaning. Three groups of pigs with 10 heads in each group are formed for the experiment. The feeding and keeping regime of the fi group of pigs did not differ from those generally accepted in the farm. In order to prevent colibacterosis the second group of piglets on 2-3 and 12-14 days after birth was injected biomycin - 60 g, furazolidone - 40 g at the rate of 100 kg of feed. The third group of piglets was given probiotic preparation "Vetom 1.1" orally at a dose of 50 mg/kg of body weight once a day for 10 days with food. Thus, the conducted research testifi to the effectiveness of the use of the probiotic "Vetom 1.1" in pig breeding. According to the results obtained, in piglets taking the probiotic, there is a signifi increase in the content of lysozyme in the blood serum - by 14.5 μg/ml. The content of E. coli in the feces of piglets by the end of the experimental period signifi decreases - 0.003 %. When using the probiotic preparation in piglets, there is a signifi decrease in Staphylococcus spp. Similar changes occurred in the populations of Proteus spp. and Candida spp., moreover, the latter were not detected with pigs taking the probiotic Vetom 1.1.The activation of benefi microfl in the body is explained by a signifi increase in the number of enterococci in the third group of piglets, which took “Vetom 1.1”.
