Resumo

El uso prolongado de antibióticos como promotores de crecimiento en la avicultura ha generado problemas como la resistencia bacteriana, residuos en los productos y daños al medio ambiente, lo que representa un riesgo para la salud pública. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica con el objetivo de conocer el efecto probiótico de Bacillus subtilis en el rendimiento del pollo de engorda. La evidencia documental indica que B. subtilis, mejora los parámetros productivos, la salud intestinal, la respuesta inmunológica y reduce las emisiones de sustancias olorosas al medio ambiente; lo que permite concluir que la adición dietética de B. subtilis, como probiótico, es una alternativa efectiva y sustentable para reemplazar los antibióticos en la producción avícola.
