PURPOSE:To safely and effectively promote the growth of an animal such as livestock, fowl or a cultured aquatic animal without a fear of residual medicines, etc., and side effects by orally administering a dead microbial cell of a microorganism belonging to the genus Clostridium to an animal. CONSTITUTION:A microorganism belonging to the genus Clostridium [e.g. Clostridium.butyricum.MIYAIRI (FERM P-2789)] is inoculated into a culture medium, cultured at 30-40 deg.C for 14-24hr and then sterilized by heat treatment or treatment with formalin or other germicides to provide a nutrient dead microbial cell. The nutrient dead microbial cell of the Clostridium.butyricum.MIYAIRI in an amount of 0.00005-80wt./wt.% is subsequently blended with 0.001-50wt./wt.% saccharides, 0.015-90wt./wt.% starch, 0.0005-33wt./wt.% sparingly water-soluble inorganic substance and 1-99.9wt./wt.% excipient to prepare a pharmaceutical preparation having =106 cell number of the nutrient dead microbial cells based on 1g pharmaceutical preparation. The obtained pharmaceutical preparation is then orally administered to an animal such as livestock, fowl or a cultured aquatic animal to effectively promote the growth of the animal.
