Now, thanks to their expertise as a primary producer, collaboration with gut health experts, unique coating processes, and extensive animal trials, Phileo by Lesaffre can demonstrate how its specifically selected and processed Saccharomyces Cerevisiae strain (Actisaf SC50 Pet) can be used to create dry food with 18 months high-quality shelf life. This is an advance that will provide substantial gut health benefits to dogs, and much more. Featured speakers include Cécile Sampsonis, R&D Manager for Product Formulation at Phileo by Lesaffre, and Dr. Jan Suchodolski, Professor and Associate Director of the Gastrointestinal Laboratory at Texas Phileo Lesaffre webinar logoA&M University.
