Abstract

Analysis of feed supplements can highlight microbial diversity and the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), allowing users to monitor the safety of their animals. The 16S amplicon and metagenomic data generated by nanopore sequencing revealed that Bacillus was the dominant prokaryote, and AMR genes were detected in the animal probiotic products.
