For the production of such spores, yeast extracts such as Ohly’s X-SEED® KAT are often used to obtain high yields. In this study the performance of Ohly’s X-SEED® KAT was compared with three other yeast extracts for the production of Bacillus thuringiensis spores. Two of the yeast extracts are commercially available at industrial scale, while the third one is a product generally used for laboratory scale testing. The study clearly showed that X-SEED® KAT outperforms other yeast extracts for the production of Bacillus spores. Key observations – Choosing the right yeast extract can be crucial for obtaining maximum spore production. X-SEED® KAT resulted in the highest spore counts and best process productivity. All tested yeast extracts yielded 95% sporulation, although significant differences were observed in spore counts. Use of X-SEED® KAT increased final spore numbers by 21% – 31% when compared to other yeast extracts. Download the white paper Curious to read the full white paper?

Search Home Feed Health Nucleotides Nucleotides Nucleotides are semi-essential nutrients whose availability is growth limiting under certain conditions. SAMPLE REQUEST CONTACT US Nucleotides play a major role in almost every biological process. For instance, they are building blocks for DNA and RNA, and carriers of metabolic energy (i.e. ATP). Nucleotides are semi-essential nutrients: under conditions of rapid growth, stress and disease the own de novo synthesis capacity of animals is not sufficient. Supplementation of animal feed with nucleotides improves animal productivity with respect to average daily gain and feed conversion ratio. This effect is especially pronounced in the first weeks after weaning, also resulting in a reduction of diarrhea. Moreover, nucleotides are known to enhance the immune system. Consequently, dietary nucleotides provide a valuable tool to the livestock producer. Related Products Ohly-GO® Nucleo Nucleotides for aquaculture and husbandry.
