A high-concentration live yeast probiotic containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae (2.1 billion CFU/g) for improved feed efficiency, gut health, immune function, and performance in livestock and poultry.
Product Name: OPTIMIZE-10
Type: Probiotic / Live Yeast (Feed Additive Powder)
COMPOSITION
- Live Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) ...... 2.1 billion CFU/g
- Excipients ...... q.s. to 1 g
DESCRIPTION
OPTIMIZE-10 is a high-concentration live yeast probiotic containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a well-researched probiotic strain widely used as a feed additive in livestock and poultry production
Mechanism of Action in Ruminants: Live yeasts are considered allochthonous (non-native) microorganisms in the rumen environment, but when supplemented daily, they can survive and interact with native microbial populations
The positive effects of yeast cells have been demonstrated on:
- Growth and activity of fiber-degrading bacteria and fungi
- Stabilization of rumen pH and prevention of lactate accumulation
- Ruminal microbial colonization and fermentative processes
The primary modes of action identified are the supply of growth factors to rumen microorganisms, oxygen scavenging to create favorable conditions for anaerobic communities, and nutritional competition with native ruminal species
Mechanism of Action in Poultry: Saccharomyces cerevisiae has gained significant attention as a viable alternative to antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in poultry nutrition
The yeast cell wall contains β-glucans and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) as its main components, which contribute to prebiotic effects
Research indicates that S. cerevisiae improves nutrient digestibility, enhances gut microbiota balance, strengthens immune responses, and mitigates the effects of environmental stressors in poultry
EFFICACY DATA
Poultry Research (2024 Study): A study evaluating Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (SCFP) in broiler chickens reported the following results at a supplementation rate of 1.25 kg/MT feed :
- Improved Growth Performance: Significantly improved average daily feed intake (ADFI) and average daily gain (ADG) from 1 to 14 days of age
- Better Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR): Significantly improved over the entire 42-day experimental period compared to control
- Reduced Pathogens: Lower counts of E. coli, Enterohemorrhagic E. coli, ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae, and Salmonella compared to control; Salmonella counts were lower than in probiotic (Bacillus subtilis) group
- Enhanced Gut Morphology: Significant increase in villi height and villi-height-to-crypt-depth ratio (VH:CD)
- Improved Immune Response: Significant increase in antibody titers against Newcastle disease virus and infectious bursal disease virus on day 28
- Reduced Stress Markers: Lower cholesterol and corticosterone concentrations
Ruminant Research: Studies have demonstrated that live yeast supplementation in dairy cows:
- Improves neutral detergent fiber (NDF) digestibility by over 6%
- Increases overall feed efficiency by 5%
- Increases populations of beneficial rumen microbes such as Megasphaera elsdenii (which converts lactic acid to propionate) and Fibrobacter succinogenes (key fiber-digesting microbe)
- Stabilizes rumen pH and reduces risk of subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA)
- In calves, promotes early rumen development and supports higher average daily gains
INDICATIONS
OPTIMIZE-10 is indicated for the following in livestock and poultry:
- Improved Feed Efficiency – Enhanced nutrient digestibility and feed conversion ratio
- Gut Health Support – Stabilization of gut microbiota, improved intestinal morphology, and pathogen exclusion
- Immune System Enhancement – Increased antibody response to vaccines and improved disease resistance
- Rumen Function Optimization (Ruminants) – pH stabilization, prevention of lactate accumulation, and enhanced fiber digestion
- Growth Promotion – Increased body weight gain and average daily gain
- Stress Reduction – Lowered corticosterone levels and improved stress tolerance
- Egg Production (Layers) – Improved egg production and quality through optimized nutrient absorption and calcium metabolism
- Antibiotic Alternative – A viable alternative to antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in antibiotic-free production systems
DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION
For inclusion in complete feed. Thorough mixing is essential to ensure uniform distribution of the live yeast throughout the feed.
Recommended Inclusion Rates:
| Species | Recommended Dose | Equivalent CFU |
|---|
| Poultry | 500 g – 1.25 kg per ton of feed | 1.05 – 2.63 billion CFU/kg feed |
| Swine | 500 g – 1 kg per ton of feed | 1.05 – 2.1 billion CFU/kg feed |
| Dairy Cattle | 10-20 g per head per day | 21-42 billion CFU/head/day |
| Beef Cattle | 5-10 g per head per day | 10.5-21 billion CFU/head/day |
| Sheep & Goats | 2-5 g per head per day | 4.2-10.5 billion CFU/head/day |
Administration Guidelines:
- Mix thoroughly into the complete feed using a progressive mixer to ensure uniform distribution
- For best results, feed continuously during periods of stress, transition, or high production demand
- Higher inclusion rates may be used during periods of heat stress, disease challenge, or when recovering from illness
- For young animals, supplementation during the pre-weaning period supports early gut and rumen development
- Live yeast is heat-sensitive; avoid exposure to high temperatures during feed processing (>80°C)
WITHDRAWAL PERIODS
- Meat: 0 days (no withdrawal required)
- Milk: 0 hours (no withdrawal required)
- Eggs: 0 days (no withdrawal required)
PRECAUTIONS & STORAGE
- Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C, protected from direct sunlight and moisture
- Live yeast is sensitive to high temperatures; avoid exposure to temperatures above 80°C during feed processing
- Use within 6 months of opening for optimal viability
- Avoid mixing with highly acidic or alkaline substances that may affect yeast viability
- No known contraindications when used as directed
- Safe for use in all production stages including gestation and lactation
- Keep out of reach of children.
Target Species: Poultry, Swine, Cattle (Dairy and Beef), Sheep, Goats
