Application of Enterococcus Faecium as a Probiotic Strain in Aquatic Species
Probiotic bacteria are a sustainable approach to modulate the gut microflora towards a favorable composition, which is of utmost importance since the digestive system of fish and shrimp is an important entrance point for infections.
