Specialized probiotics for bees

The probiotics for bees are microbial supplement that exerts beneficial effects on the host body by balancing natural gut microbes. Many probiotic species belong to a large group of bacteria called lactic acid bacteria. These bacteria are native microbes to humans and animals, but are also naturally present in plants.

 

 

What is a probiotic?

Probiotics are living microorganisms that include lactobacilli, bifidobacteria, and yeasts. When consumed by the host, they have beneficial effects on the health of the host by balancing the intestinal microflora. The natural microflora of the bee’s digestive tract contains various microorganisms.

The presence of large populations of these microorganisms is essential for the host for the following reasons:
– Assist in the process of digestion of food;
– Assist in the synthesis and absorption of vitamins and minerals;
– Decomposition of polysaccharides;
– Stimulate the immune system;

 

More information

The population of intestinal microflora is subject to changes due to various factors such as dietary changes, use of antibiotics for treatment, high population density. Since today in the beekeeping, livestock, and poultry industry, in order to achieve high economic levels, bees, livestock, and poultry are bred and maintained in dense breeding systems with large populations, so under the influence of various factors in Are exposed to stress.

As mentioned, these factors lead to disruption of the balance of intestinal microflora and thus weaken the body’s defense mechanisms. Therefore, pathogenic objects have the opportunity to function. In such cases, antimicrobial food additives such as antibiotics are used to inhibit or eliminate harmful substances in the intestine as well as to improve food efficiency and increase production. 

 

 

Why should we use probiotics for bees?

Antibiotics are used to treat bee illnesses. The use of antibiotics destroys beneficial microorganisms, upsetting the balance of bee digestive microflora. Another problem with the use of antibiotics in food production is the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. To address this, several organizations have restricted the use of antibiotics in food production which use authorized additives for this purpose. Among them are probiotics and citric acid, which have both antibacterial properties and are used in bee nutrition.

 

 

Reasons for not using antibiotics

According to available reports, the increasing number of congenital anomalies, the occurrence of chronic diseases, the ineffectiveness of antibiotics, are attributed to the excessive use of these compounds. Due to the above, the use of antibiotics in animal feed is now completely banned in some countries, and in other countries is gradually declining.

The use of antibiotics to cure and prevent bee illnesses not only creates drug resistance in the body but also disrupts the normal flora of the gastrointestinal tract, predisposing the body to a variety of diseases. In contrast, by using probiotics as microorganisms that fight the microbial pathogen in the living environment, a person can be protected against pathogens orally.

These agents include Lactobacillus, Saccharomyces, Bifidobacterium, Enterococcus and Clostridium, and Saccharomyces yeast. They inhibit the growth and proliferation of pathogens in that part of the body, by various mechanisms such as the production of antimicrobial agents, production of organic substances and acids, activation of the immune system, competition for nutrients with the pathogen, and occupant of the host cell. The advantage of using these factors is cheapness, abundance, low risk, and in some cases rapid stimulation of the host immune system.

 

 

The importance of probiotics for bees

The importance of probiotics was initially considered as a growth stimulant. It was later introduced by Fuller as a type of live microbial nutrition that has beneficial effects on the host.

Probiotics are not just eaten as a diet; Rather, since the word probiotic was coined by Colade in 1991, Lee Lee and Stillol have used the term in 1999 as a dietary supplement for live bacteria and spores, which should improve the use of antibiotics in the animal environment. Lactic acid bacteria are gram-positive, rod-shaped, cocci-shaped and without spores (eggs). Resistant to air or anaerobic, acid and phyllic or uric acid. Lactobacillus plays an important role in repairing the intestinal microbial ecosystem. It is therefore widely used as a probiotic to promote the properties of Lactobacillus spec.

 

The impact of probiotics on bees

Bee is a useful insect that plays an important role in nature due to pollination. The digestive system of bees contains symbiotic microorganisms. Recent research has shown that beneficial microorganisms in bees are known to be involved in bee body interactions. The use of probiotics for bees increases the growth rate and thus improves the feed conversion ratio and improves disease resistance and increases honey production.

 

 

Benefits of using probiotics for bees

– Increase the digestive process
– Absorption and metabolism of pollen
– Increasing secretion of royal jelly
– enhancement queen spawning
– augment Grazing in the desert
– Increasing honey production
– Reducing environmental stresses such as heat and dust and decreasing stresses due to migration and long movement
– Improving bee digestive problems such as constipation
– diminishing the use of antibiotics and the cost of treatment
– Boosting immunity system
– enhancement and improve the microbial population of the gastrointestinal tract
– bettering the quality of honey due to reducing sucrose

 

 

Consumption instruction

Dissolve 100 grams of probiotics in one liter of water (less than 25 degrees) and then add it to 100 liters of sugar syrup and pour one liter of syrup for each 10 frames hive.

 

Spray method

Dissolve 100 grams of probiotic in one liter of water (less than 25 degrees) and then add it to 30 liters of sugar syrup and spray 300 cc on the bee density for each 10-frame hive.

 

Note: 50 grams of vitamin C can be added to the above syrup to increase yield and spawn more.
