Single Source of Quality Controlled Glucomannans
CITADEL™ is a pre-biotic derived from the cell wall of a single source of food grade Saccharomyces
cerevisiae manufactured in the USA. The polysaccharides obtained from the yeast cell wall consist of glucans,
mannans, quitines and galactans. A typical analysis for CITADEL™ is 21% Crude Protein, 33% beta-glucans,
and 20% mannanoligoscharides (MOS).
Quality Control.
A key differentiating factor for CITADEL™ from many similar products in the market place is the quality
control and quality assurance program and procedures. The Old Mill Troy recognizes that product quality is
critical to ensuring consistent and repeatable animal performance results.
CITADEL™ comes from a single human food grade fermentation site, using a single strain of Saccharomyces
cerevisiae, thereby providing a stable and consistent source of the yeast cell wall material. Analyses are
routinely undertaken to minimize any variation in glucan and mannan contents.
Consistency equals Repeatability.
Benefits of CITADEL™ .
1) Demonstrated to have greater pathogen binding capacity than leading competitor MOS products. The result
is fewer pathogens colonize the gastro-intestinal tract, thereby maintaining a healthier gut ecosystem.
2) Beneficial modulation of the immune system, resulting in increased Immunoglobulin synthesis, improved
and more persistent titer levels post vaccination.
3) Improved animal performance. Less energy spent repairing the gastro-intestinal tract and dealing with the
stress induced by pathogen proliferation.
4) Improved gut health results in longer villi and thinner gastro-intestinal membranes. This provides a greater
surface area for nutrient absorption and less of a barrier to nutrients entering the blood flow from the gut.
