2021-11-11

Clostridium butyricum, also known as Clostridium butyricum, is an endophytic anaerobic bacterium with spores and is Gram-positive. It is named after it can produce a large amount of butyric acid. It mainly colonizes and grows in the posterior part of the small intestine and colon mucosa, can produce spores, and can exist in a dormant manner in a bad environment. Therefore, Clostridium butyricum has better properties such as high temperature resistance, acid resistance and bile salt resistance. It has certain resistance to the high temperature and pressure in the process of feed processing and the environment of the digestive tract.

The first strain of Clostridium butyricum was isolated from the intestines of pigs by Prazmowski in 1880 and was identified as a symbiotic bacteria distributed in the intestines of the environment, humans and various animals. As people's understanding of the probiotic effects of Clostridium butyricum continues to deepen, Clostridium butyricum is gradually being promoted in Asian countries led by Japan and South Korea, and is gradually accepted and used by the livestock and poultry industry as one of the representatives of probiotics. Since it was introduced by the Institute of Microbiology of Heilongjiang Academy of Sciences in 1992, after more than 20 years of development, Clostridium butyricum has been widely developed and applied in the livestock and poultry breeding industry in China, and is a healthy breeding for the livestock and poultry breeding industry in China. And to reduce the use of antibiotics. Existing studies have shown that specific selected strains of Clostridium butyricum can promote the growth of the body, improve the immune function of the body, and improve the probiotic properties of the intestinal flora. It can be used as a feed additive in the livestock and poultry breeding industry and has been used in China. , Japan and South Korea achieved commercialization. In 2003, after EU approval, Clostridium butyricum was approved as a feed additive for piglets and broilers in Europe. In 2009, the Ministry of Agriculture of the People's Republic of China also approved Clostridium butyricum to be added to feed as a probiotic, which is more conducive to the promotion and practical application of Clostridium butyricum. As a kind of intestinal probiotics, Clostridium butyricum can improve the resistance of broilers and the economic benefits of broiler breeding. It is a green and safe antibiotic substitute.



The good biological characteristics of Clostridium butyricum are the basis to ensure the follow-up product development and application effects. Bora Lilai has concentrated on producing every microecological preparation product for 25 years, and each strain has to be repeatedly screened and verified by a professional scientific research team, and it has good biological characteristics. Baolai-laalai Butyric Acid+ is a safe and preferred product for feed and farmers.
