摘要:
A method of reducing human salmonellosis due to consumption of contaminated food. More in particular this application discloses a specific wheat bran fraction that reduces colonization of Salmonella bacteria in the gut of animals that are part of the human food chain. This disclosure indeed demonstrates that animals such as broilers that are given feed supplemented with the latter feed bran fraction—;and are then infected with Salmonella—;have a significantly reduced number of Salmonella bacteria in their cecum and shed less bacteria in their environment when compared to control animals that are given non-supplemented feed.
