We are a proud supporter of the Petfood Forum, and are excited to announce that we are making 2025 exhibit spectacular! We invite you to our booth 2307 to share the exhilarating news of our NextGen premix facility that is fully dedicated to petfood, being built in Tonganoxie Kansas. We are thrilled this innovative plant will be opening in the second half of 2025. Stay tuned for the announcement of a Grand Opening!

On Tuesday at 1:30, make sure you catch our Biotics in pet food and modulation of feline gut microbiome by diet and biotic supplementation talk. This will be an excellent review of the pet industry biotics market and how new postbiotic ingredients will improve the health and wellness of dogs and cats. After this special session, we invite you back to our booth to enjoy a nice cool craft beer and salty snacks from 3:30-5:30.

Special pet food session on Tuesday April 29

  • 1:30-2:35 pm
  • KCCC 2105

Biotics in pet food and modulation of feline gut microbiome by diet and biotic supplementation

Presented by dsm-firmenich:

Jeff Alix - Global head of business development, palatability and microbiome
Brian Klein - Principal scientist, microbiome, Ph.D.

Review of the pet industry biotics market and how new postbiotic ingredients will improve the health and wellness of dogs and cats. They will also review an in vivo trial conducted to evaluate the impact of a dual strain Lactobacillus postbiotic on the gut microbiome of healthy cats and focused on the effects during a dietary switch challenge. The differences in blood-based markers and microbiome sequence-based features demonstrated that a diet switch significantly impacted the gut microbiome of healthy cats and that a Lactobacillus-based postbiotic helps mitigate this challenge.

 

We look forward to seeing you at the upcoming Petfood Forum in April!
