Efficacy of biosynthesizing folate, riboflavin and typical probiotic traits reveal the potential use of Lactobacillus plantarum LCN13 as a feed additive for swine farming

Lactic acid bacteria have been advocated as probiotics to replace antibiotic growth promoters, improve growth performance, and reduce cost production in swine farming. The aim of this study is to identify and evaluate the probiotic traits of strain LCN13 isolated from traditionally fermented feed for swine.
