BioStabil Plus
BioStabil Plus consists of the best balanced amount and type of homo- and heterofermentative bacteria (Table 1) necessary to achieve the desired results, including energy conservation. The formulation contains the fast-growing, lactic acid-producing homofermentative strain L. plantarum DSM 19457, which produces sufficient lactic acid to quickly lower the pH value in ensiled feed and thus protects against losses of dry matter, energy and proteins during the fermentation phase.
| Table 1: Product features BioStabil Plus | |||
| characteristic | L. plantarum | L. brevis | L. kefiri |
| Rapid pH reduction | +++ | + | + |
| Effective on silage with high dry matter content | +++ | + | |
| Lactic acid production | +++ | ++ | + |
| Clostridia reduction | +++ | +++ | + |
| Minimal dry matter losses | +++ | + | + |
| Production of acetic acid and improvement of aerobic stability | +++ | +++ | |
BioStabil Plus also contains L. kefiri DSM 19455 and another selected heterofermentative strain L. brevis DSM 23231, which produce sufficient acetic acid to ensure improved aerobic stability in the collection phase. The combination of one homofermentative and two heterofermentative strains also protects against the growth of undesirable bacteria, such as clostridia, yeasts and molds, during and after ensiling, thus helping to prevent losses of valuable dry matter, energy and proteins from the silage.
The use of several strains is intended, among other things, to help increase the effectiveness of BioStabil Plus with different types of feed and conditions such as humidity and temperature.
