Development of the composition of feed additives based on the developed algorithm, including the studied probiotic strains

Abstract

The aim of the study was to develop an algorithm for compounding feed mixtures with the inclusion of probiotic strains. The authors have developed the basic principles underlying the modeling of feed additive formulations. However, the introduction of viable cells of beneficial microorganisms (probiotics) into the feed significantly increases the requirements for the level of design of feed products. Thus, the article describes the basic principles of the algorithm for designing feed products for poultry. A technological scheme for combining the components of the supplement and probiotic drugs has been developed. In accordance with the developed algorithm, the effect of such an active component of the feed additive as bentonite on the growth and survival of the target probiotic strains was tested. Feed mixtures with the inclusion of the probiotic strains under study were tested in the experiment on broiler chickens. The result of the study was positive results of the productivity of the raised poultry in the experimental groups.
