Description

Ningning Guan and eleven co-authors isolate a Bacillus subtilis strain from a goat farm and test its probiotic traits and anti colitis effects. The species is widely used as a feed additive in livestock and poultry. The new strain tolerates high heat, acid and alkali, and high bile salt levels, and it aggregates strongly within a day.

Genome sequencing maps genes for amino acid metabolism, vitamin synthesis, and other pathways. In mice with chemically induced colitis, the diseased group shows loss of gut barrier proteins and high inflammatory signals. Feeding the strain eases those changes in the treated animals. The work supports the isolate as a candidate probiotic for gut health in farm settings.
