Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how a probiotic supplement affects the gut microbiota and mineral metabolism in dairy cows, building on existing contradictory data about the gut microbiome's role in mineral regulation.
- Fifteen cows were given a specific probiotic daily for a month, and their gut microbiota and serum mineral levels were analyzed using advanced sequencing and mass spectrometry techniques.
- Results showed that the probiotic improved gut microbiota diversity, increased levels of essential minerals like calcium and zinc, and altered other serum parameters, suggesting probiotics may enhance mineral nutrition in cattle, although their impact on milk production remains to be studied.
