As it is well known, plasma exerts its beneficial effects through its concentration in immunoglobulins. PROMOTE PR70 has been fortified with a comparable source of immunoglobulins, designed specifically for young pigs, from hyper-immunized eggs. In addition, the immunoglobulins in PROMOTE PR70 have higher affinity and avidity than those in animal plasma, making thus PROMOTE PR70 even more effective, especially against pathogens causing diarrhea in young pigs.
In addition, PROMOTE PR70 contains a proprietary blend of high-quality dairy and vegetable proteins treated specifically to attain a high level of digestibility, comparable to that of plasma. These proteins, which include whey protein, potato protein, wheat gluten, soy protein, and pea protein, also have their own functional properties contributing to enhanced gastrointestinal health as supported by numerous trials worldwide. Finally, PROMOTE PR70 is fortified with sodium and chloride to provided levels similar to those in animal plasma.
Research conducted with PROMOTE PR70 critical components has clearly demonstrated that this innovative technology can improve piglet growth, via enhanced feed intake, up to 40% compared to a negative control without any source of immunoglobulins. In addition, PROMOTE PR70 can protect against pathogenic scours, an effect not found in animal plasma! A summary of trials is available upon request.
