Abstract | Probiotic additions have demonstrated implicit in boosting animal growth and nutrient application. This study examined the impact of fortified enrichment with a mix of probiotics on the experimental progress and enzymatic activity profile of silkworm naiads. Effects were probably facilitated by changes in the intestinal digestive enzyme activity and digestion assimilation. Silkworms were distributed into three groups a control, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a probiotic soy- supplemented group. Fresh mulberry leaves were sprayed with distilled water for control group and mulberry leaves were sprayed by each concentration of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae and soy solution and these leaves were nurtured to silkworms, from 3rd to 5th instar. Growth and weight was observed and also biochemical assays were conducted to assess digestive enzyme activity. Statistical analysis was performed using one- way ANOVA. The results showed that probiotic soy supplementation significantly bettered larval weight, feed effectiveness, and silk product compared to the control and Saccharomyces cerevisiae groups. |
