Abstract
- A study is conducted where the isolation of 237 presumptive gut-associated Bacillus spp. isolates that were obtained by heat and ethanol treatment of fecal material from organically reared broilers followed by aerobic plating. The result suggests that some of the sporeformers isolated have the potential to persist in or transiently associate with the complex gut ecosystem.
