摘要

"antimicrobial composition and method for use". The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition and a method for administering the antimicrobial composition through drinking water or feed to farmed animals, wherein the antimicrobial composition is composed of lysozyme and various other agents that act synergistically with lysozyme. , such as dried egg powder, albumen, a capture agent and / or a lantibiotic. The composition is used to inhibit the development of and diseases and significant epidemiological effects caused by Clostridium perfringens, e.g. coli and salmonella in the intestines of farmed animals. more particularly, the antimicrobial composition and method refer to a feed additive that may be administered to poultry and / or pigs through their feed.
