A feeding trial for 90 days was conducted in Twenty-four Large White Yorkshire piglets distributed into four treatment groups, fed respectively with basal diet without probiotic, basal diet with freeze dried Lactobacillus acidophilus (1.0 x106 CFU/g of feed, basal diet with freeze dried Lactobacillus plantarum (1.0 x106 CFU/g of feed), basal diet with freeze dried Lactobacillus acidophilus (1.0 x103 CFU/g of feed and Lactobacillus plantarum (1.0 x103 CFU/g of feed).
