Scientific Opinion on the safety and efficacy of Lactobacillus pentosus (DSM 14025) as a silage additive for all animal species

Abstract Lactobacillus pentosus is a technological additive intended to improve the ensiling process at a proposed dose of 1.0 × 108 CFU/kg fresh material. The bacterial strain L. pentosus is resistant to the antibiotics tetracycline, ampicillin and clindamycin, all antibiotics of human and veterina...
