Levucell SB is a concentrated live yeast specifically selected to enhance the nutrition and health of monogastrics. The strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae boulardii CNCM I-1079) has been chosen for its specific properties :
- Reduction in pathogenic micro-organism concentration
- Reinforcement of the intestinal microflora equilibrium
- Stimulation of the animal’s immune system
Levucell SB benefits in aquaculture:
- Its mode of action in the gut is well understood and corresponds to a real "shield effect", reinforcing the microbial ecosystem and protecting the animal's digestive tract.
- Stimulates early the enzymatic activity in salmonids
- Secures rotifer production and Artemia enrichment in marine fish hatcheries
- In experimental conditions, salmon and trout challenged with Yersina ruckneri (an enterobacteria causing the 'red mouth' disease) were extremely resistant to the infection after four months probiotic supplementation.
Registration
Levucell® SB (Saccharomyces cerevisiae boulardii I-1079) has received permanent EU registration for use as a zootechnical feed additive for gestating & lactating sows and piglets (E1703).
