Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837

Additive Technological additives Authorised in animal feed (EU)

Description

What it is. Technological additive for silage, consisting of a preparation of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837, a lactic acid bacterium, containing at least 5 × 10^11 CFU/g of additive. It is identified by plate count on MRS agar (EN 15787) and by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis or DNA sequencing.

What it is for. Used as a silage additive to support the ensiling process across all animal species. It is generally used at the start of ensiling to favour lactic fermentation and help stabilise the forage. When not combined with other microorganisms used as silage additives, the minimum content is 1 × 10^8 CFU/kg fresh matter.

Points to watch. Storage conditions must be stated in the instructions for use of the additive and premixtures. Feed business operators must set operating procedures and organisational measures to manage handling risks; where these cannot be eliminated, personal respiratory and skin protective equipment must be used.
