Product: OPTIGEN

OPTIGEN is Alltech’s unique non-protein nitrogen (NPN) source for ruminants that is safe and traceable. Optigen is a controlled release technology designed to provide a safe, concentrated source of ruminally degradable protein. Due to the concentrated nature of Optigen, more cost effective diets can be achieved by balancing the ration with less costly feed ingredients. This technology helps to provide sustained availability of ammonia to the rumen environment ensuring that rumen bacteria have continued access to this essential food source.

For use in dairy and beef.

Reformulation with Optigen can provide:

•  Rumen friendly diets, resulting in enhanced microbial protein production, fiber digestion, and efficient rumen nitrogen capture
•  Fermentable carbohydrates for sustaining higher milk yields
•  Microbial protein synthesis as a result of more efficient ruminal function
•  Effective fiber for sustaining a healthy rumen
•  Control over dietary heat increments in the summer
•  Consistent levels of nitrogen in the rumen

DAIRY STATEMENTS

•  Milk production
•  Milk components
•  Microbial protein synthesis
•  Space in the rumen
•  Growth of fiber-utilizing bacteria

BEEF STATEMENTS

•  Available nitrogen for fiber digesting bacteria overtime
•  Starch degradation
•  Space in the rumen
•  Provides a sustained release of nitrogen to the rumen which is essential for optimal growth and activity of rumanl bacteria populations
