Bacillus Altitudes Probiotic Powder

Cat#

AMP-002

Product Description

Bacillus altitudinis is a spore-forming, non-pathogenic bacterium increasingly used as a probiotic in animal feed, aquaculture, and agriculture due to its resilience and multifunctional benefits. In poultry and pigs, it improves gut health by balancing intestinal microflora, enhancing nutrient digestion, and producing enzymes such as proteases and amylases. This leads to better feed conversion, weight gain, and reduced risk of gastrointestinal infections. In aquaculture, B. altitudinis enhances water quality by decomposing organic waste, suppressing pathogenic microbes like Vibrio species, and boosting the immune response of fish and shrimp. In agriculture, it acts as a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR), enhancing nutrient uptake, especially phosphorus solubilization, and producing phytohormones that stimulate root growth. It also provides biocontrol against soil-borne pathogens through antimicrobial metabolite production.
