ABCA to discuss selenised yeast technology at VIV Asia 2015
At VIV Asia 2015, besides showing the latest developments in its specialist yeast products portfolio, ABCA will present why a new addition to the products providing supplementary organic selenium should be viewed as the next generation of selenium yeast.
A new scientific paper from senior academic Prof. Wayne Bryden, "Seleniun Biochemistry and Bioavalability -An Update" will reveal how a new generation of organic selenium containing predominantly "Selenohomolanthionine" obtained from a proprietary strain of Torula yeast is rewriting scientist knowledge about selenium yeast.
According to the paper, it is apparent that Selenomethionine is not the only effective form of organic selenium in feed supplementation.
In independent trials, "Selenohomolanthionine" (AB-Tor-Sel) has been shown to have a greater effect in boosting the selenium status in livestock and with potential benefits of wider and more sustainable distribution of the element in body tissues.
Prof. Bryden is the professor of animal science at The University of Queensland, Australia.
ABCAwill hold a short technical session discussing the paper at its booth on 11 March at 3.00pm.
Damian Moore, independent technical nutritional consultant, and co-author of the paper, will be presenting some of the breakthrough information, summarised in his topic "Selenohomolanthionine- changing organic selenium mindset".
AB Tor-Sel is ABCA''s new high potency (4000ppm) organic selenium.
