BlogYeast cell walls are not limited to MOSYeast cell walls (YCW) are the insoluble fraction of autolyzed or hydrolyzed yeasts, obtained after the separation from the cytoplasmic content. They are sometimes referred to as “MOS”, but it is a misnomer! YCW are not limited to mannan oligo-saccharides (MOS), which represent the external layer of the YCW, there is also the internal layer […]

BlogUnlock the quality of fiber!Fiber is a critical component of the plant cell wall and provides both structural support and protection against disease and weather stress. Fiber is resistant to degradation by the digestive enzymes of most monogastric animals. Ruminants, on the other hand, have the ability to release the energy from part of the fiber structure thanks to […]

BlogFiber, an untapped energy source?Turning fiber into milk: role of the rumen engine Current context of high price of feed raw materials is driving us to reconsider the importance farm-grown fibrous material in the ration of ruminant. Indeed, fiber is an essential component of plants which is resistant to degradation by the digestive enzymes of most monogastric animals. Ruminants, […]

BlogDo you know how fiber is affecting rumen health?Ruminant digestive systems have the ability to degrade and ferment fiber through microbial activity. The fiber components, and the subsequent production of volatile fatty acids (VFAs), provide the majority of the energy for the ruminant. But energy (and milk) production is not the only role of fiber: it is the fiber that ensures the proper […]

BlogMaintaining bedding quality can benefit udder healthDid you know that a cow spends at least 12 hours per day lying down, either resting or ruminating? It is easy to understand how the microbial quality of the bedding and manure — that are in close contact with the udder for so long — is an important factor to help maintain a healthy […]

BlogBactocell supports calcium metabolism in mature laying lensAs the laying cycle progresses, eggs get bigger while the hens’ calcium (Ca) metabolism becomes disrupted. The capacity to keep hens well beyond 90 weeks emphasizes the necessity to manage eggshell quality all along the cycle to avoid some end-of-lay disorders. All the Ca deposited on the eggshell comes from the feed. Therefore, its assimilation […]
