Mechanism of Action & Benefits

• Carries an extensive set of genes encoding glycosidases and oligosaccharide transporters, enabling more comprehensive utilization of the structural diversity of milk oligosaccharides than most other gut bacteria
• This specialized capacity for milk oligosaccharide utilization drives rapid, dense colonization of the gut in neonates and young animals, conferring a clear numerical and metabolic advantage over invading pathogens
• Demonstrated competitive exclusion of enteric pathogens such as Salmonella and E. coli in weaned piglet challenge models, while reducing pathogen shedding and improving villus-to-crypt ratio
• Ferments milk oligosaccharides to produce acetate and lactate, lowering luminal pH and supporting intestinal barrier integrity
• Documented clear immune-educating effects in neonatal piglet feeding trials, including elevated intestinal IL-10 expression
• Supplementation in neonatal and early-weaned piglets supports intestinal development and growth performance, making it well suited for young animal probiotic blends
