A preparation comprising probiotic strains belonging to the genera Bacillus sp., Lactobacillus sp., optionally Pediococcus sp. as viable cells or cytoplasmic extract thereof, and proteases, wherein the strains can degrade peptide sequences of gliadins. The preparation can be used to produce gluten-free foods from gluten-containing cereals or to treat gluten-related disorders.

A probiotic composition comprised of a probiotic, a prebiotic, a complex-starch reducing enzyme, an enzymatic co-factor, and a pH modifier. The probiotic composition facilitates the creation of a biofilm within the GI tract of poultry that outcompetes and excludes pathogens. The probiotic composition can be incorporated into an eggwash and sprayed onto an egg, the sprayed egg developing a stable probiotic population within the GI tract of the pre-hatched chick. The probiotic composition can also be incorporated into poultry feed by applying the probiotic composition as a mash prior to pelleting. The probiotic composition can also be applied post-pelleting as a wet or dry spray, directly onto the pellets. In some instances, the probiotic composition can be added a drinking water source used by poultry as a water additive. Poultry that consume feed or water that contain the probiotic composition develop a stable probiotic population within their GI tracts.
