Effect of probiotics on hematological parameters of male and female Wistar rats

In the present study, the effect of probiotics on the hematology of Wistar rats was examined. Locally isolated Lactobacillus plantarum MZ707748 (Pro 1), L. plantarum MZ710117 (Pro 2), Weisella confusa MZ727611 (Pro 3), and L. plantarum MZ735961 (Pro 4) were used. One strain of probiotic, L. acidophilus-14 (Pro 5), was purchased commercially. Different groups were designed as G1, G2, G3, G4, and 5, G5/PC consisting only pro 5 and NC & 0 day were untreated. Different groups have different probiotics like G1 containing Pro 1 and Pro 2, G2 comprising Pro 3 and Pro 4, G3 containing Pro 2, Pro 3 and Pro 5, G4 having Pro 1–5, and G5 containing Pro 5. A complete count of blood, serum chemistry, fecal analysis, and histopathological examination of the thymus and liver were done. Statistical differences were seen in the complete blood count parameters (p 0.05) except for TP, creatinine, and globulin (p
