Specific live yeast: LEVUCELL SC

LEVUCELL SC is a live yeast used as a probiotic in ruminant and equine feeds. The strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-1077 was selected from thousands of yeast strains for its capacity to optimise rumen function in ruminants and hindgut function in horses.

Product details

Its efficacy has been validated through studies at leading research centers and is documented in more than 100 international independent scientific publications.

LEVUCELL SC is available in TITAN technology:

Description

LEVUCELL SC helps optimise rumen function which maximizes feed efficiency.

LEVUCELL SC is internationally approved:

  • European Union approved (E1711/4b1711/4a1711) for use in bovines destined for meat and milk production, dairy goats, ewes, lambs.
  • United States: Saccharomyces cerevisiae is considered generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and complies with the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) requirements for an active dry yeast.

Benefits

LEVUCELL SC optimizes rumen digestion and function which leads to an improvement in income over feed cost.

During transition, LEVUCELL SC can help improve milk yield and maintain weight.

The proven efficiency of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-1077:

  • Improves fiber digestibility and helps optimise rumen pH*
  • Improves feed efficiency: more milk is produced per kg of feed intake (e.g. for dairy: +50g* to 120g of milk for every kg of dry matter intake)

LEVUCELL SC helps optimize rumen function which maximizes feed efficiency.

The proven efficiency of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-1077:

  • Improves fiber digestibility and helps optimise rumen pH*
  • Improves feed efficiency: more weight gain per kg of feed intake (e.g. for beef, 4 to 6%* more gain per kg of feed consumed)

Applications

LEVUCELL SC feed supplementation should be used in ruminants (dairy cattle, beef cattle, rearing calf, goat, lamb, ewe and sheep) at the recommended feeding rate.

There are different formulations to fit various feeding and management practices:

    • LEVUCELL SC 20: Concentrated formulation adapted for non-pelleted or mash feed type applications.
    • LEVUCELL SC 10 TITAN: Micro-encapsulated formulation adapted for premixtures and pelleted feed.
