The stability and viability of probiotics you use in your pet food is a key factor in your decision-making. If probiotic ingredients deteriorate or become unstable before or during the shelf life of your product, you cannot confidently support CFU label guarantees and make probiotic claims proudly.

Probiotic stability is a complex, multi-stage journey, encompassing everything from genetic stability, particularly regarding antimicrobial resistance (AMR), to the endurance of probiotics through various phases like fermentation, formulation, application, and even extending to the shelf life of the final pet product. Crucially, this stability extends to the point where the probiotics successfully proliferate and function in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of dogs and cats.
