Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Bilin Xie"
- Bilin Xie's recent research primarily focuses on the role of probiotics and fermented diets in enhancing the growth performance of Muscovy ducks by modifying gut morphology, microbiota, and metabolic processes.
- One study specifically demonstrated that a compound probiotic fermented diet significantly improved fatty acid levels and small peptides in the ducks' diet, indicating potential benefits for animal rearing.
- Another investigation revealed that Lactobacillus plantarum supernatant effectively inhibits the growth of the pathogenic bacterium Riemerella anatipestifer, suggesting its potential as a preventive measure against infections in waterfowl, which is crucial for reducing economic losses in the duck industry.
