Primalac Probiotic 150g
The Industry Leading Probiotic. PrimaLac is the preferred probiotic for nutritionists and decision makers tasked with maintaining healthy animals. It works by maintaining an optimal microbial balance of good bacteria over pathogenic bacteria, which helps production animals of all types increase performance and overall yield.
A unique combination of bacteria, grown and processed with proprietary standards developed over decades by Star-Labs research, have made PrimaLac the industry leader. Animal health outcomes and the shelf viability of PrimaLac products set it apart from others on the market.
What are Probiotics?
Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms that have well-documented positive effects in animals. They work differently from antibiotics. Rather than destroying bacterial flora, good and bad, as antibiotics do, probiotics are beneficial flora, which improve overall immune health by crowding out and competing with pathogenic bacteria. Probiotics also create a gastrointestinal environment that enables better nutrient absorption.
What are Direct-Fed Microbials?
An innovative feature of PrimaLac products is their processing into a Direct-Fed Microbial (DFM), which makes for ideal bioavailability in the animal system. Most Direct-Fed Microbial products are based on a combination of Lactobacillus and Streptococcus products, but they are not all created equal. Veterinarians, feed companies, and animal agriculture producers face a market flooded with DFMs offering varying effectiveness.
Primary Benefits of Probiotic Health
PrimaLac products have been field tested and developed over the past four decades by a laboratory focused on one set of products for animals, unlike the competition that develops for wider use. PrimaLac products are designed to benefit poultry, livestock including swine and cattle, pigeons, aquaculture and many other animals. The benefits are achieved through several distinctive features:
Bacteria that colonizes the gut
A viable system of cultures grown together, kept viable through Thermo-Positive processing
The most stable probiotic on the market, with a 2 year shelf life
The Cultures
An essential PrimaLac distinction is in the viable organisms delivered to the animal. Only PrimaLac organisms attach to the wall of the animal intestinal tract, implanting, colonizing, and crowding out bad pathogenic bacteria. Other probiotics offered in the animal agriculture industry are transient, spore-forming bacteria that pass through the system and have limited effects.
The range of effectiveness includes:
DFMs with non-viable, dead microorganisms
Freeze-dried DFMs which will die rapidly unless cold-stored, and do not survive pelleting
Fermentation products with low shelf life, low bacterial count, and often the wrong bacterial sub-species
PrimaLac is the most research proven effective DFM on the market today
With a select sub-species of primary Lactobacillus and Streptococcus bacteria, the PrimaLac culture is the most effective probiotic for animal gastrointestinal health. A proprietary culturing method— transferring a viable liquid medium to dry medium— together with rigid quality control standards at every step, create a highly viable product which will survive warmer storage temperatures and deliver a reliably high number of beneficial organisms to animals.
PrimaLac Direct-Fed Microbials are available in a variety of delivery methods and formats.
