A Focus on BioPlus® 2B BioPlus® 2B is an in-feed probiotic that beneficially effects the balance of the intestinal flora of pigs. Maintaining the integrity of the gastro-intestinal flora affects increased weight gain, improved feed conversion and increased viability of pigs of all ages: piglets, grower-finishers and sows. BioPlus® 2B provides a reliable solution for pig producers. It has been proven in more than 40 scientifically designed and controlled trials that BioPlus® 2B significantly improves pig production when used in feed for sows, piglets, grower and finisher pigs. BioPlus® 2B consistently improves pig production In piglets and grower-finisher pigs BioPlus® 2B increases liveweight gain and improves feed conversion. When fed to sows BioPlus® 2B reduces preweaning mortality and increases weaned litter weight. When used in piglet feed BioPlus® 2B improves feed conversion on average by 5% and weight gain by 10%. Through stabilizing the intestinal flora the use of BioPlus® 2B effects reduction in piglet diarrhoea and enhanced viability. When sows are fed rations with BioPlus® 2B, piglet mortality is reduced from an average 10-13% to 7% and weight loss of the sows is reduced as well. Latest research show significant increase in litter size at weaning of approximately 8% and a significant decrease in preweaning piglet mortality by 5% when BioPlus® 2B is given to lactating sows.
