How do we define one bacterial strain (e.g. Bacillus licheniformis) used as probiotics for humans, plants and fishes.
I'm not qualified to comment on the micro-biotic details - however, the approaches must relate to how we have arrived at the need for probiotics. For humans, the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and a high sugar, meat-dominant diet would suggest the use of probiotics after their use, OR, the avoidance of the causes of micro-biome disturbances. Apply the same logic to agriculture (avoid tilling, herbicides, pesticides and inorganic fertilizers) and aquaculture (eliminate fertilizer contributions to waterways, global warming...) - can't imagine adding any single bacterium as a fix!
Humans Probiotics:
Probiotics for humans are good bacteria or yeast consumed to support balanced and healthy gut flora. These probiotics can strengthen the immune system, facilitate better digestion, and enhance general health in people.
Plant Biofertilizer Probiotics:
Microorganisms included in plant biofertilizer probiotics improve the availability and absorption of nutrients by plants. These advantageous fungi or bacteria form symbiotic connections with plant roots, promoting plant development, disease resistance, and nutrient uptake.
Aquaculture Probiotics:
Probiotics for aquaculture are utilized for raising aquatic animals like prawns and fish. These probiotics support improved growth in aquaculture systems, illness prevention, and water quality control. They support the upkeep of a healthy, balanced habitat for the cultivated species.
Actually I feel we can't made actual difference...but according to physiology of human as being hot blooded...fishes being cold blooded and plant having different physiology....the strain development possible due to various environments in gut ...Probiotics may contain a variety of microorganisms. The most common are bacteria that belong to groups called Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. Other bacteria may also be used as probiotics, and so may yeasts such as Saccharomyces boulardii.
A bacterial strain used as a probiotic, like Bacillus licheniformis, is defined by its specific characteristics, such as its ability to confer health benefits, resistance to stomach acids, and safety for consumption. Additionally, its application might vary based on the target organism – humans, plants, or fishes – with specific considerations for each.
Human probiotics are designed to support the microbial balance in the human digestive system, promoting health. Plant biofertilizer probiotics enhance plant growth by improving nutrient availability and fostering a beneficial soil microbiome. Aquaculture probiotics focus on maintaining a balanced microbial environment in aquatic systems, promoting the health and growth of fish and other aquatic organisms. Each type of probiotic is tailored to the unique characteristics and requirements of its target organism – humans, plants, or aquatic species.
Again, the scale of the probiotic "cure" needs to be impossibly large in order to make a difference beyond individuals, unless the intent is to make money based on mere theories of microbial balance. As a physician, I contend that the "cure" must lie in implementing the preventive maneuvers previously mentioned.
