Rob Patterson (Canadian Bio-Systems) explained the benefits of nucleotides in tissue recovery and cellular regeneration in broilers, as well as their combination with exogenous carbohydrases and fatty acids, during IPPE 2018 in Atlanta, USA.
Dear Ali, yeast nucleotides named because they are isolated from yeast. Several firms from the world are producing nucleotides (for example, Ascogen Ltd), and everybody using yeast as a raw material. Of course yeast contains a lot of other substances, but purified product contains only nucleotides. Nucleotides are very effective tool to improve FCR and DWG. The main disadvantage to use nucleotides in grower/finisher diet is only relatively high price...
Thanks for your nice description, but previous studies, especially those conducted with labled nucleotides, showed that only tiny amount of nucleotides can absorb from the intestine into the epithelial cells, due to the negative charge of phosphate moiety in the structure of nucleotides. On the other hand, what do you mean by "yeast nucleotides"? Which part of the yeast do you use as nucleotides? If cell content, it must be purified, because as you know cell content of the yeast contains several nutrients such as amino acids, vitamins, and nucleotides. Therefore, the cell content must be purified to obtain nucleotides, otherwise you cannot call it "Yeast Nucleotides", because the effects of other nutrients may interfere nucleotides' effects. I am interested to discuss on this subject.
Monogastric Nutrition Lab at University of Guelph is glad to collaborate with CBS in nucleotide research. We have seen phenomenal responses to experimental cocci challenge on tissue regeneration, immunity and gut microbiome. The graduate student (Haley Leung) presented at PSA 2017 and IPPE 2018
Yeast nucleotide is a functional product of degradation of yeast nucleic acid, which is rich in free nutrients. In animal husbandry and fishery production, it can improve feed intake, decrease the ratio of feed and meat, as well as reduce antibiotic use effect.
We have used Nucleotides in Our products for young animals including Poultry in a liquid form sold As Aviboost Poultry tonic. We have experienced great success with Nucleotides.
