An isolated microorganism comprising a Propionibacteria strain. When the microorganism is fed to ruminant, protein and fat levels in milk produced by the ruminant are increased, while body condition and milk production levels are maintained. When fed to the ruminant, the microorganism also has positive effects on various metabolic hormones and metabolites, e.g., an increase in energy balance, plasma non-esterified fatty acids levels, and plasma leptin level. Supplementation with propionibacteria reduced dry matter intake but did not affect milk production in the cows. Therefore, the propionibacteria of the invention made the cows more energy efficient as cows produced the same amount of milk, yet consumed less dry matter.

L'invention concerne un micro-organisme isolé comprenant une souche de type Propionibacterium. Lorsque le micro-organisme est administré à un ruminant dans l'alimentation, les niveaux de protéine et de matières grasses du lait produit augmentent, avec maintien de l'état physique et des niveaux de production de lait. En outre, le micro-organisme a des effets positifs sur un certain nombre d'hormones métaboliques et de métabolites, à savoir: amélioration du bilan énergétique, augmentation des niveaux d'acides gras non estérifiés du plasma, et augmentation du niveau de leptine du plasma. L'apport de micro-organismes de souche du type Propionibacterium ayant permis de réduire l'absorption de matières sèches, mais sans affecter la production de lait chez les vaches traitées, on a conclu à une amélioration du bilan énergétique dans la mesure où ces vaches ont été capables de produire la même quantité de lait pour une consommation inférieure de matière sèches.
