BIOPOWER SC

BIOPOWER® SC, Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain CNCM -1077, is a naturally occurring, rumen-specific viable yeast probiotic selected to help digestive function. This specific strain has been carefully selected from thousands of other yeast strains to enhance fiber digestion, maintain proper gut microbiota, and optimize digestive function in dairy and beef cattle, small ruminants, and horses. A properly functioning digestive microbiome drives animal productivity, performance, animal health, and profitability.

Product Description

Product details

BIOPOWER SC is approved to be used in Canada under registration number 982800, 982803, and 983776.

Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)-APPROVED CLAIMS: When fed as directed, BIOPOWER SC:

  • Increases milk production in lactating dairy cows
  • Increases average daily gain in beef cattle
  • Increases milk production in lactating dairy goats
  • Increases milk production in dairy sheep
  • Increases average daily gain in sheep for fattening
  • Improves fiber digestibility in horses

How it works

S. cerevisiae CNCM I-1077 stimulates the growth and colonization of fiber-digesting microbiota, improving the availability of nutrients captured from the diet to support animal performance.1

In ruminants, the active live yeast found in BIOPOWER SC decreases the production of lactate-producing bacteria, S. bovis. In response, stimulating the production of lactate-utilizing bacteria, M. elsdenii and S. ruminantium, to increase rumen pH and decrease the animal’s exposure to Sub Acute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA).2

Why it matters

BIOPOWER SC enhances feed efficiency and diet digestibility, improving performance without increasing dry matter intake.3,4 Lactating dairy cows saw a 3% improvement in feed efficiency, milk and milk component yield and and calves from beef cows supplemented with LEVUCELL SC achieved 7% more gain and 5% higher weaning weights.3,5 Producers can rely on BIOPOWER SC for a positive return on investment thanks to increased performance and production from improved animal health and well-being.
