MODE OF ACTION

How Actisaf® Works

Actisaf® Sc 47 works by enriching the rumen microbiome ecosystem - leading to a cascade of performance benefits across the entire animal system.

Microbiome Enrichment

Live yeast colonises the rumen and gut, stabilising the microbial population and reducing the proliferation of harmful bacteria - resulting in a healthier digestive ecosystem.

Enhanced Fermentation

A more balanced rumen microbiome leads to improved volatile fatty acid production and greater energy availability - the direct driver of milk production and live weight gain.

Stress Resilience

Actisaf® maintains rumen stability during heat stress, feed transitions, and periparturient periods - protecting production from the most common challenges in Indian dairy conditions.

Colostrum & Milk Quality

Improves the immunological and nutritional profile of both colostrum and milk - protecting newborn calves and enhancing the commercial value of milk produced.

Antibiotic Reduction

By improving gut ecosystem balance and immune status, Actisaf® helps farms reduce their antibiotic use - a growing requirement of both regulatory and market-driven dairy standards.

Pelleting Durability

The patented technology survives the combined stresses of pelleting - high temperature, moisture, pressure and friction - ensuring live yeast counts are preserved through manufacturing.

BENEFITS

Value for Every Stakeholder

Actisaf® delivers measurable benefits across the entire dairy value chain - from feed mill to farm gate to consumer.

Feed Manufactures

Record Pelleting Resistance

The STD formulation withstands the combined effects of heat, humidity, compression, and friction encountered in modern pelleting processes - ensuring survival of live yeast through manufacturing.

Wide Feed Compatibility

Compatible with a broad range of feed types and other feed ingredients including organic acids - providing formulation flexibility for feed millers without ingredient conflicts.

Multiple Format Options

Available in STD formats to match different manufacturing processes - from high-intensity pelleting lines to mash and mineral premix production.

Differentiated Product Offering

Incorporating Actisaf® enables feed millers to offer performance-guaranteed products to dairy customers - creating commercial differentiation in a competitive market.

Animals

Improved Rumen & Gut Balance

Stabilises the rumen and gut microbial ecosystem, reducing the risk of dysbiosis and supporting consistent digestive function across all production phases.

Increased Feed Digestibility

Higher fibre and nutrient digestibility means animals extract more energy and protein from the same feed - directly improving growth, fertility, and milk production efficiency.

Better Postpartum Recovery

Supports periparturient and neonatal animals in overcoming the metabolic and immune challenges of calving - reducing transition period losses.

Enhanced Immunity

Modulates immune function, helping animals maintain health status during high-challenge periods such as weaning, heat stress, and diet transitions.

Farmers

Unlocking Genetic Potential

Actisaf® helps dairy herds achieve their genetic potential for milk production by optimising the nutritional environment - closing the gap between theoretical and actual yield.

Consistent Herd Performance

Reduces within-herd variability by supporting all animals through challenging periods - making herd management more predictable and profitable.

Positive Return on Investment

The gain in milk yield, feed efficiency, and reduced health events delivers measurable ROI - with payback typically achievable within a single lactation cycle.

Heat Stress Management

Of particular relevance to Indian dairy conditions - Actisaf® helps maintain production levels during summer months when heat stress typically causes the most significant yield losses.

Consumers

Improved Milk Quality

Animals supplemented with Actisaf® produce milk with improved nutritional composition - supporting better quality outcomes for processors and end consumers.

Enhanced Food Safety

By reducing antibiotic use at farm level, Actisaf® contributes to lower antibiotic residue risk in the dairy supply chain - a key consumer and regulatory concern.

EVIDENCE BASE

Science-Backed Performance

Rumen Microbiome Stabilisation

Global field and experimental trials demonstrate consistent improvements in rumen microbial diversity and fermentation efficiency - with measurable gains in volatile fatty acid profiles supporting milk synthesis.

Heat Stress Programme Results

Phileo's dedicated Heat Stress Programme for dairy ruminants shows that Actisaf® supplementation helps maintain milk production and dry matter intake during thermal challenge - critical for Indian summer conditions.

Milk Profit Programme

The Milk Profit Programme, built around Actisaf® as its core intervention, documents consistent improvements in energy-corrected milk yield, milk fat, and milk protein across diverse dairy systems globally.
