The current study was conducted to evaluate the anti-mycotoxigenic effects of previously isolated Bacillus spp. in Japanese quails. A total of 240-day-old Japanese quails were assigned in to six treatments and four replicates. Dietary treatments included the following: negative control (basal diet), positive control (basal diet + 2.5 ppm afltatoxin B1), probiotic treatments (basal diet […]
In total, 240 one-day–old Japanese quails (Coturnix Coturnix Japonica) allocated at random to 6 treatments with 4 replicates and 10 birds in each. Treatments used were: 1) Negative control (without any additives or AFB1); 2) Positive control (basal diet + 2.5 ppm AFB1; 2); 3) TA008 (positive control + 108 cfu/ml Bacillus. megaterium TA008); 4) […]
The probiotic potential of bacterial species isolated from local honey samples were analyzed by microbiological, biochemical and molecular methods. A total of 17 Gram positive bacterial isolates were recovered from local honey samples and tested for their hemolysin, coagulase, DNase, Lipase, Lecithinase and Gelatinase producing abilities, respectively. The isolates (5) lacking the tested virulence phenotypes […]
