type F is a spore-forming bacterium that causes human illnesses, including food poisoning (FP) and non-foodborne gastrointestinal diseases. In this study, we evaluated the antimicrobial activities of 15 natural products against spore growth. Among them, garlic, onion juice, and undiluted essential oil constituents (EOCs) of clove, rosemary, and peppermint showed the strongest activity.

is a significant cause of food poisoning. Broad-spectrum antibiotics, commonly used to control , are becoming less effective due to the rise of antibiotic-resistant strains, necessitating alternative control strategies. A -infecting bacteriophage, Dolk21, and its endolysin, PlyDolk21, were isolated and characterized.

Coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis are among the most common diseases affecting poultry, with economic impact due to reduced production and the costs of treatment and prevention. Eimeria invasion contributes to gut damage that promotes the growth of other harmful pathogens, such as . Coccidiostats, with toltrazuril as an example, are widely used to control these infections.

infection can induce necrotic enteritis and lead to significant economic loss to the chicken industry. In this study, a xylanase (Xyn10C), which effectively promotes the growth of probiotics, and a protease, which degrades the biofilm of were analyzed for their ability to alleviate -induced necrotic enteritis in broiler chickens. A total of 300 male AA chickens were divided into five treatment groups (control, no enzyme and no challenge; Cp, no enzyme, challenge; Xyn, Xyn10C plus challenge; Xyn+Am, Xyn10C+Amylase plus challenge; Xyn+Ap, Xyn10C+Alkaline protease plus challenge).

Introduction: Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) can cause necrotic enteritis and higher mortality rates in piglets, by impairing the intestinal barrier function. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 40 (BA40) has showed potential ability to reduce C.
