Enterococcus faecium EK 13 is a bacteriocin-enterocin A producing strain with probiotic properties. In the study its colonization, stability and effect on microflora in rabbits was studied as well as its influence on zootechnical parameters. Fifty rabbits after weaning were divided into control (C) and experimental (E) groups and were fed a standard diet. E rabbits were for 4 weeks fed daily lyophilized EK 13 strain dissolved in drinking water. Preliminary results demonstrated that EK 13 is a perspective probiotic candidate for rabbits.
