Strain identification
The isolates were identified to species level through biochemical tests. Gas production from glucose was anaerobically tested in MRS broth with inverted vials at 37 C for
72 h. Growth at 15 C and 45 C was observed in MRS broth
after 72 h incubation.
The configuration and quantification of lactic acid was
determined enzymically using D and L lactate dehydrogenases
(Boehringer Manheim GmbH Biochemica, Mannheim, Germany). Carbohydrate fermentation was determined using the
API 50CHL system (Baume-les Grottes, France).

When strains CTC2183 and CTC2197 were grown in commercial chicken feed mixture moistened and supplemented
with monensin, the strains showed higher resistance than in
MRS broth (up to 9 mg ml1). The assayed strains CTC2183
and CTC2197 were capable of predominating over the
endogenous flora in the incubated chicken feed mixture as
detected by their plasmid profile (data not shown).
Lact. salivarius CTC2183 and CTC2197, inhibitors and
highly adherent and resistant to monensin, bile salts and pH
30, were chosen for the inoculation of 1 day-old chicks.

Nurmi and Rantala (1973) were the first to report that oral
dosing with gut content containing native gut microflora from
salmonella-free adult birds could protect the chicks from
infection by Salmonella spp. however, this practice could
result in the widespread transmission of any undesirable bacteria. For that reason, attempts have been made to develop
defined bacterial mixtures for commercial use (Mead and
Impey 1987).
As host specificity of bacterial strains is well recognized
and documented (Fuller 1975; Suegara et al. 1975; Barrow et
al. 1980), isolation of lactobacilli from chickens was undertaken in this study as a first step towards developing a chicken
probiotic adjunct. The crop was chosen as a source of strains
because its microflora, consisting mainly of lactobacilli (Sarra
et al. 1992), provides an effective barrier against colonization
by human foodborne pathogens.
Among 296 isolates, eight strains were selected because of
their good biological properties as successful probiotics, their
moderate or strong adherence ability, their resistance to a
number of antibiotics and coccidiostats, bile salts and pH 30,
and their antimicrobial spectrum against enteric bacteria. The
adherence capability to intestinal cells and/or mucus would
be advantageous for these strains as it gives them a great
