New animal plasma alternative launched

As it is well
known, plasma exerts its beneficial effects through its concentration in
immunoglobulins. PR has been fortified with a comparable source of
immunoglobulins, designed specifically for young pigs, from hyper-immunized
eggs. In addition, the immunoglobulins in PR have higher affinity and avidity
than those in animal plasma, making thus PR even more effective, especially
against pathogens causing diarrhea in young pigs.

PR 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, PR is fortified with sodium and chloride to provided levels
similar to those in animal plasma.

Research
conducted with PR 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, PR can protect against pathogenic scours, an effect not found in
animal plasma! A summary of trials is available upon request (info@ew-nutrition.com).
