Immunobiotic potential of fermented snail meat hydrolysate in local chicken with low protein content.

Objective: Protein is needed for chicken growth, but high protein consumption causes a low protein efficiency ratio and causes feed prices to be expensive. Therefore, the immunological potential of fermented snail meat hydrolysate in local chickens was studied for feed supplements in low-protein rations to reduce costs.

Materials And Methods: The research used snail meat hydrolysate resulting from submerged fermentation with starter culture from rice washing water.

Hydrolyzation of snail meat with rice water as novel probiotic supplements for animal feed.

Background And Aim: Snail meat and digestive tract hydrolyzate fermented with a consortium of preserved rice water microorganisms could serve as new sources of probiotics. Microorganisms from the examined feed supplement were isolated, identified, and characterized for resistance at low pH and with bile salts. The study aimed to determine the potential hydrolysate of the snail meat and digestive tract as a novel probiotic supplement for animal feed at various pH values and Oxgall.
