Although probiotics are generally considered to be safe, their increasingly widespread use warrants better understanding of their risks in companion animals. This study evaluated the safety and tolerance of dietary supplementation with a canine-derived probiotic, Bifidobacterium animalis strain AHC7 (Prostora, Procter & Gamble Pet Care), fed to growing beagles beginning at approximately 6 months of age (11 males; 9 females). Probiotic B. animalis AHC7 administered orally once per day at a dose of up to 5 x 1010 colony-forming units for at least 12 consecutive weeks was well tolerated with no safety concerns.
尽管益生菌通常被认为是安全的，但它们日益广泛的使用需要我们更好地了解其在伴侣动物中的风险。本研究评估了一种犬源益生菌——动物双歧杆菌AHC7菌株（Prostora，宝洁宠物护理公司）对大约6月龄生长中的比格犬（11只雄性；9只雌性）进行日粮补充时的安全性和耐受性。以高达5×10¹⁰菌落形成单位的剂量每天口服给予动物双歧杆菌AHC7益生菌，持续至少12周，结果显示该益生菌耐受性良好，无安全问题。
