METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF "FERM KM" PROBIOTIC FODDER ADDITIVE FOR DOMESTIC ANIMALS AND BIRDS Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC A23K1/165 C12N1/20 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended for use in production of fodders. The method envisages production of liquid cultures of Bacillus subtilis VKPM V-8130, Bacillus subtilis VKPM V-2984, Bacillus subtilis VKPM V-4099 and Bacillus licheniformis VKPM V-4162 by way of their separate aerobic in-depth cultivation in nutrient media of a specified composition. The produced liquid cultures of Bacillus subtilis are mixed at a 6:6:1 ratio accordingly, applied onto a sterile mixture of beet cake and wheat bran preliminarily treated with a cellulolytic enzyme dissolved in a nutrient medium. PH and batch moisture content are brought to 7.5-8.0 and 43-48% accordingly; the mixture is thoroughly stirred and one proceeds with solid phase fermentation under restricted oxygen access conditions during 48 h at a temperature of 45-50°C and drying for moisture content to be 8-10%. Bacillus licheniformis VKPM V-4162 liquid culture is immediately mixed with beet cake and dried till moisture content is 8-9%. The dried products are mixed and crushed for a homogenous product production.

EFFECT: one provides for increased productivity of animals and birds due to fodder digestibility, stimulation of metabolic and immune processes in the organism and normalisation of intestinal microbiocenosis as well as livestock preservation enhancement.
