In vivo characterization of Lactobacillus johnsonii FI9785 for use as a defined competitive exclusion agent against bacterial pathogens in poultry
Aims: To test the efficacy of Lactobacillus johnsonii FI9785 in reducing the colonization and shedding of Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis, Escherichia coli O78:K80 and Clostridium perfringens in poultry. Methods and Results: Specific pathogen-free chicks (1 day old) were dosed with a single oral inoculum of 1 x 10(9) CFU. Lactobacillus johnsonii FI9785 and 24 h later were challenged in separate experiments with S. Enteritidis (S1400, nal(r)) and E. coli O78:K80 (EC34195, nal(r)). There were no significant effects against S. Enteritidis whereas colonization of the small intestine by E. coli O78:K80 was reduced significantly. Both S. Enteritidis and E. coli colonized the caeca and colon to levels equivalent to control birds and there was no reduction in shedding as assessed by a semi-quantitative cloacal swabbing technique. Specific pathogen-free chicks (20 day old) were dosed with a single oral inoculum of 1 x 10(9) CFU L. johnsonii FI9785 and 24 h later were challenged with C. perfringens. A single oral dose of L. johnsonii FI9785 was sufficient to suppress all aspects of colonization and persistence of C. perfringens. Conclusions: Lactobacillus johnsonii FI9785 may be given to poultry for use as a competitive exclusion agent to control C. perfringens. Significance and Impact of the Study: Lactobacillus johnsonii FI9785 may be a valuable tool to control the endemic disease of necrotic enteritis, thereby reducing economic losses associated with reduced use of antimicrobials in the poultry industry
Uso de microbiota cecal congelada com crioprotetores em pintos infectados experimentalmente com Salmonella enterica sorovar Enteritidis Use of frozen cecal microbiota with cryoprotectors in chicks experimentally infected with Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis
Pintos de corte com um dia de idade foram tratados com microbiota cecal cultivada em condição de aerobiose, nos tempos de congelamento de 90, 200, 290 e 360 dias, e associada aos crioprotetores sacarose, trealose, dimetilsulfóxido (DMSO) e glicerol. Posteriormente as aves foram desafiadas com Salmonella Enteritidis, visando determinar a eficácia dos tratamentos em relação à quantidade de bactérias viáveis da microbiota que foi maior aos 90 dias (10,58 Log10 UFC/ml), quando as aves foram tratadas com sacarose, e menor aos 290 dias, quando tratadas com glicerol (7,73 Log10 UFC/ml). No tempo zero, todas as aves apresentaram Salmonella (100%) quando tratadas com DMSO e glicerol, com colonização cecal de 4,9 e 5,2 Log10 UFC/g do conteúdo cecal, respectivamente; aos 360 dias nenhuma ave foi infectada, independente do tratamento. A microbiota cecal, independente de tratamento, sempre determinou menor quantidade de S. Enteritidis em qualquer um dos parâmetros pesquisados, quando comparada com a das aves não tratadas. O congelamento em nitrogênio líquido foi eficaz na manutenção da viabilidade da microbiota cecal até 360 dias.<br>One-day-old broiler chicks were treated with cecal microbiota cultivated under aerobiose conditions, frozen during 90, 200, 290 and 360 days and associated with different cryoprotectors such as sucrose, trehalose, DMSO and glycerol. Subsequently, the birds were challenged with Salmonella Enteritidis in order to determine the efficacy of the different treatments in relation to the quantity of viable bacteria, which was higher at 90 days when treated with sucrose (10.58 log10 CFU/ml) and lower at 290 days when treated with glycerol (7.73 log10 CFU/ml). The quantity of infected birds was 100% in 0 time, when the cecal colonization by S. Enteritidis was 4.9 and 5.2 log10 CFU/g of cecal content, respectively treated with DMSO and glycerol. No bird was infected at 360 days, irrespectively of the treatment. In all treatments, the cecal microbiota always determined a lesser quantity of S. Enteritidis for all the studied parameters compared to non-treated birds. Frozen in liquid nitrogen was effective in maintaining the viability of cecal microbiota during the experimental period of 360 days
