Recently, the State Feed Engineering Technology Research Center has succeeded in developing a feed synbiotic, which can replace antibiotics in feed processing. This can provide safety guarantee for producing toxin-free and residue-free feed and animal products. This research project has passed the research achievement appraisal by the Ministry of Education and has been enlisted as an agricultural science and technology research achievement transformation project of the Ministry of Science and Technology.

This technology has been appraised by means of microorganism identification, rapid micro biochemical reactions and ion chromatographic analysis, by combining the active ingredients of beneficial microorganisms and Chinese herbs and selected 7 object plants from 78 kinds of plant. Then, make full use of their complementary actions, produce beneficial Bacillus species by big tank liquid culture methods, produce feed bacillus additives in compressed air purification system and air-flow drying system, extract plant polysaccharides by water extracting, alcohol extracting and ester extracting technologies, directive extract 3 kinds of compound polysaccharides, and form an ideal toxin-free, and residue-free feed antibiotic replacement, feed synbiotic by optimal combination of bacillus additive and plant polysaccharides. This feed synbiotic product has reached similar production performance of antibiotics and has fairly significant improvement effect on meat quality and is an antibiotic replacement product with a bright future.
