Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a probiotic feed additive to non and pseudo-ruminant feeding: a review.
Abstract: The production of livestock and poultry faces major challenges to meet the global demand for meat and dairy products and eggs due to a steady increase in the world's population and the ban of antibiotics in animal production. This ban has forced animal nutritionists to seek for natural alternatives to antibiotics. In this context, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has received considerable attention in the last decade. It has been reported that feed supplementation with live yeast cells improve feed efficiency, enhance feed digestibility, increase animal performance, reduce the number of pathogenic bacteria, improve animal health and reduce the negative environmental impacts of livestock production. The current review sheds light on the effects of the use of live S. cerevisiae cells in the diets of nonruminant and pseudo-ruminant's animals and the mechanisms by which they exert its effects. This review work revealed that the addition of S. cerevisiae in poultry feed causes a phenomenon called competitive exclusion of pathogenic bacteria capable of causing disease adhere to the yeast surface, and so removing a large amount of harmful micro-organisms and allowing the Animal defend more effectively, the production of antimicrobial agents, the balancing the gut microbiota and stimulation of host adaptive immune system and improving gut morphological structure, thus these benefits are reflected on the overall poultry health. In addition, in the presence of live S. cerevisiae cells, the immunity of rabbits was improved due to the high number of white blood cell. In addition, apparent digestibility of acid and neutral detergent fibre was improved in horses and rabbits. Saccharomyces cerevisiae in pig diets augment mucosal immunity by increasing IgM and IgA activity against pathogens, enhance intestinal development and function, adsorb mycotoxins, modulate gut microbiota and reduce postweaning diarrhoea.

The research article is about the beneficial impacts of using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a dietary supplement for livestock and poultry, explaining how it improves their health, digestive system, and immune response while also reducing environmental impact.
Introduction
- The article begins by examining the struggles faced by livestock and poultry production in meeting global meat, dairy, and egg demands, especially given the population increase and the ban on antibiotics in animal feed. As such, alternatives are being sought, leading to increased interest in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast.
The Role of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
- The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been found to have numerous benefits when added to animal feed. This includes improved feed efficiency and digestibility, enhanced animal performance, a reduction in pathogenic bacteria numbers, improved animal health, and decreased negative environmental impacts.
Competitive Exclusion of Pathogenic Bacteria
- One of the ways S. cerevisiae helps is through “competitive exclusion” of harmful bacteria in poultry. It adheres to the surface of these microbes, effectively preventing them from causing diseases and allowing animals to fight off infections more effectively by producing antimicrobial agents and balancing gut microbiota.
Stimulation of Adaptive Immune System
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae improves gut structure and stimulate the animal’s adaptive immune system, improving overall health. Furthermore, in rabbits, the presence of live S. cerevisiae cells improved immunity, evidenced by an increase in white blood cell count.
Enhanced Digestibility and Immunity
- Apparent digestibility of acid and neutral detergent fiber in horses and rabbits showed marked improvement. Additionally, within pig diets, S. cerevisiae increases IgM and IgA activity against pathogens, improves intestinal development and function, absorbs mycotoxins, modulates gut microbiota, and reduces post-weaning diarrhea, thus boosting the mucosal immunity.
