Probiotics, Prebiotics and Synbiotics for Combating Antimicrobial Resistance in the Food Chain
This article reviews how bio-based interventions in food and animal production—specifically probiotics (live beneficial microbes), prebiotics (substrates that stimulate beneficial microbes), and their combinations (synbiotics)—can help mitigate antimicrobial resistance (AMR) by reducing pathogen colonisation, enhancing host immunity and gut microbial balance, lowering antibiotic use, and limiting the release and spread of resistance genes from food-animal systems into the environment.
