APC Proteins AP 301

• Spray Dried Red Blood Cells (SDRC) and Spray Dried Plasma (SDP) are made from animal blood hygienically collected during the production of either beef or pork meat for human consumption. APC’s processing includes immediate collection of the whole blood into our closed, stainless steel collection system. APC never uses blood collected from the floor for our products.
• Spray Dried Red Cells (SDRC) can be used as a partial replacement for fishmeal or other protein sources. SDRC improve amino acid balance and provide superior digestibility.

Protein & Essential Amino Acids of Common Ingredients Used in Aquaculture Feed

Spray dried blood cells (AP 301/301G) provide more consistent, higher quality protein and amino acids for poultry compared to traditional rendered (drum or ring dried) blood meal. Spray dried blood cells are a co-product of the production of spray dried plasma. Unlike traditional rendered blood meal, bovine or porcine blood used to produce spray dried plasma and spray dried blood cells is collected separately into an enclosed system that prevents contamination of the blood from the meat production process. Spray drying results in less damage to high quality proteins than traditional rendered blood meal that are exposed to prolonged high temperatures, which reduce digestibility of proteins and amino acids like lysine.

Spray Dried Red Cells for Poultry

Spray dried red cells (SDRC) can be used as a beneficial ingredient in broiler and layer diets to improve key production measures.

AP 301/301G Composition and Standardized Digestible Amino Acids

Spray dried whole blood powder (AP 300) or spray-dried blood cells (AP 301/301G) are more digestible by swine compared to traditional rendered (drum or ring dried) blood meal. APC’s red cell products contain higher standardized ileal digestible protein and lysine that bring more value to swine diet formulations. Spray drying results in less damage to high quality proteins than traditional rendered blood meal that are exposed to prolonged high temperatures, which reduce digestibility of proteins and amino acids like lysine.

Standardized Ideal Digestibility, (SID)

Spray dried red cells (SDRC) can be used to replace more expensive or less desirable protein sources in swine diets.
