Antibiotic misuse in the animal sector is the first cause of the emergence and spreading of MDR bacteria. Prevention of infectious diseases and enhancement of animal growth are the main effects of antibiotics that push farmers and veterinarians to use this molecule in animal farms. Thus, the use of alternative solutions such as natural antimicrobial substances as well as probiotic strains is a crucial need in this sector. Enterococcus faecium CMUL1216 was isolated from healthy human baby's feces. This strain was assessed in vitro for probiotic properties including activity against many pathogens isolated from animal, human, and soil samples. CMUL1216 strain exhibits good antimicrobial activity against indicator pathogens in both planktonic and biofilm forms. In addition, CMUL1216 strain showed a strong biofilm formation. Furthermore, CMUL1216 exhibits a good anti-inflammatory effect by inducing the secretion of IL-10 in vitro. Moreover, this strain did not show any pathogenic characteristics such as hemolytic effect, presence of virulence genes as well as susceptibility to the majority of antibiotic families. E. faecium CMUL1216 could be a good candidate to be used a probiotic strain in the animal sector in order to maintain animal health and therefore reduce antibiotic resistance caused by the excessive use in this sector.
