ASSESSMENT OF QUALITY AND SAFETY OF COMMERCIAL PROBIOTICS FOR ANIMALS

Samples of commercial probiotics used in veterinary medicine for small animals, horses, cattle and general purpose were studied. All samples have shortcomings; none were found to fully comply with the quality and safety requirements. The labels contained inaccuracies in the type of bacteria and microbial activity. Significant differences between the composition and microbial activity declared by the manufacturer and the actual ones were established. Contamination of some probiotics with opportunistic and pathogenic microflora was detected.

Abstract

Samples of commercial probiotics used in veterinary medicine for small animals, horses, cattle and general purpose were studied. All samples have shortcomings; none were found to fully comply with the quality and safety requirements. The labels contained inaccuracies in the type of bacteria and microbial activity. Significant differences between the composition and microbial activity declared by the manufacturer and the actual ones were established. Contamination of some probiotics with opportunistic and pathogenic microflora was detected.
