Fabiano Favarin, Global Business Director-Vitamins at Adisseo, points out the relevance of the range of vitamins that Adisseo offers for the animal nutrition industry...
Claudia Parys, Ruminant Nutritionist - Global Technical Support at Evonik Animal Nutrition, points out how to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of rumen-protected amino acids, the concept of Amino Acid Balancing (AAB), and more topics in this video...
Bradley “Scott” Sorrell, Director of Global Marketing, Animal Nutrition & Health at Balchem, describes Balchem’s Choline Encapsulation Technology for the Dairy Industry...
Balchem has been perfecting the art of microencapsulation for more than 50 years and has spent nearly 30 years applying this technology to dairy animals to protect compounds from ruminal degradation. Balchem launched its first animal nutrition product - ReaShure® Precision Release Choline - in late 1999. Through encapsulation, ReaShure passes safely through the rumen to the abomasum and small intestine to effectively deliver choline, an essential nutrient required by dairy cows....
Heat stress can have a huge impact on all cows; reducing dry matter intake, suppressing immune responses and decreasing reproductive performance. Dr. Geoff Dahl takes a closer look at how heat stress affects late gestation cows and the additional toll heat stress takes on the resulting calf. ...
Amino Acids Of M/S Priya Chemicals Obtained By Enzyme Hydrolysis
1. Consists of twenty amino acids.
2. All amino acids are in l form (natural form) & are absorbed quickly & easily by plants.
3. No cyclization of glutamine which is important for energy metabolism.
4. No destruction of aspargine which has active role in respiratory function.
5. Tryptophan which is starting material for...
NiaShure is rumen-protected to shield the niacin from microbial degradation in the rumen while allowing release further down the digestive tract. Research shows that as much as 95% of raw niacin is broken down in the rumen. Balchem’s proprietary encapsulation process ensures that NiaShure reliably delivers significantly more niacin to the intestinal tract than raw niacin. ...
Bradley “Scott” Sorrell, Director of Global Marketing, Animal Nutrition & Health at Balchem, shares his thoughts on the relevance of Choline for animal nutrition ...
Introduction Precision nutrition aims to design nutritional recommendations in order to increase metabolic efficiency, reduce costs, improve product quality, minimize environmental impact while improving the health and well-being of dairy cattle at the individual level. According to Gonzales et al. (2018): “Precision animal nutrition requires the application of principles, techniques and technologies that automatically integrate biological and physical processes...
Background Balchem now manufactures a high-quality, ruminally protected choline product called ReaShure®-XC Rumen Protected Choline, the next generation of ReaShure which provides bioavailable choline in a more concentrated product. At calving, dairy cows go from a period of positive energy balance to negative energy balance. There is a surge in blood non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) at calving, due to the stress and the hormonal changes associated with...
Watch this short video and listen to the success story of Italian farm Società Agricola Zilio, 1,100 cows in milk. “We are open to new idea, but they must work. And I must say” - Alex Zilio comments – “that thanks to Balchem ??expertise, and the inclusion of ReaShure-XC and NiaShure in the ration, we saw an increase in milk production of about 2.4 liters/head/day, without forgetting the significant reduction of post-partum events such as retained placenta, dislocation of the abomasum and...

In this conversation on the new NRC with two legends in the industry, they focus on macro minerals, trace minerals and vitamins, and also put a bow on the NRC series and wrap it up for our listeners....
Trace elements are required for numerous metabolic functions in livestock. Optimal production and performance require adequate intake of balanced trace minerals. As trace mineral status of the animal declines from adequate to marginal, immunity and enzyme functions are compromised followed by the loss of performance and reproduction. ...

Combining advanced core design with industry-leading encapsulation technology, Balchem delivers the most unique rumen-protected choline product on the market today....
Introduction This era may be conferred as the era of nanotechnology due to the use of nanoparticles in diversified purposes such as in the fields of medicine, engineering, information, environmental technology [1,2], pigments, food, electronics appliances [3], biological, and pharmaceutical applications [4,5], etc. Nanomaterials are also used in the fields of biology (molecular and cellular), biotechnology, mineral nutrition, physiology, reproduction, pharmacology, etc., in both...
Introduction Vitamins are organic compounds needed in minute amounts that are essential for life. A vitamin must be in the diet or be synthesized by microorganisms in the digestive system and then absorbed by the host animal. Currently there are 14 recognized vitamins of which four are fat-soluble and ten are water-soluble, but not all animals require all 14 vitamins (Table 1). When an animal absorbs an inadequate...
“Don’t drink, don’t smoke, and take your multi-vitamin.” Any pregnant woman can tell you this is the advice they receive from the moment they know they are pregnant. Extensive research in humans and animals has confirmed the long-term impact of nutrition during gestation. Prenatal nutrition can permanently affect both tissues and organs, with life-long consequences to growth and health. Known as epigenetics, it’s the study of changes in gene function...
Choline has long been considered an essential nutrient and has an identified requirement in most species, including humans. Though most can synthesize choline endogenously, it cannot be produced in sufficient quantity to satisfy the body’s requirements and must be...
