Gold
Rich in Critical Nutrients and
Immune Globulins
EggLac Gold contains the only
food/feed ingredients in nature
produced specifically for the
purpose of providing for health
and growth of infant animals.
Egg
Products
EggLac Gold (ELG) Combines
Egg Product and Dairy Products
To Produce a Product Rich in:
● β Lactoglobulins (7.5% of ELG)
● α Lactalbumin (3.2% of ELG)
● Lacto-immunoglobulins (4,000 ppm of ELG)
● IgY Yolk Immune Globulins (3,000 ppm of ELG)
● Total Immune Globulins in ELG exceed 7,000 ppm
● Lactose (56% of ELG)
● Void of any blood or blood products
Research has shown all of these factors, which are present in egg
and dairy products, enhance the health and resistance of infant
animals.
Overcoming the Immunologic Gap in young Animals
Most animals start life without immune protection and acquire passive immunity from
milk or egg sac. They can’t build antibodies for some weeks
.
Pigs at birth are devoid of immune globulins and are dependent on sow colostrum,
which is extremely rich in gamma globulin, but only can be absorbed intact from
intestine the first 30 hours of life.
Blood serum gamma globulin peaks at about 30 hours and starts a near linear decline
to extinction over the next 3 - 4 weeks. Loses 50% in 9 days
Pigs start to build antibodies at 4 to 5 weeks of age and reach mature antibody
production level by 5 to 6 weeks of age.
Over 21 days of lactation pigs obtain lesser levels of gamma globulin from milk that
bathes the digestive tract, is not absorbed, but broken down like any other protein.
Immune globulins coming from milk products and eggs products are extremely
important natural sources of antibodies acquired from their mothers.
Hens deposit IgY in Yolk sac of eggs which provides passive immunity to newly hatched
chicks. Passively transferred antibodies can be measured in chicks for less than 2
weeks. Actively produced antibodies in chicks reach adult maturity at about 21 days
of age

Features of EggLac Gold
Improved performance and reduced diarrhea when
EggLac Gold is in the diet of young pigs is attributed
to:
Rich balance of amino acids in the protein
Rich in metabolizable energy
Rich in immune globulins that provide passive
immunity in the digestive tract
Rich in lactose sugar to encourage Lactobacillus
bacteria that inhibit diarrhea-causing bacteria in
the digestive tract of young pigs.
User Guide of EggLac Gold
EggLac Gold is a cream colored, free flowing meal that readily mixes into complete feed
particularly used in the diet of young weaned pigs and calves
EggLac Gold can be used either in meal or pelleted diets.
Benefits gained from including EggLac Gold are improved gain, feed intake, feed
efficiency and reduced diarrhea
Most economical use is attained when fed in nursery diets for pigs up to 20 kg
body weight.
EggLac Gold combines excellent egg and milk protein, egg fat, and milk sugar
sources for young pigs, calves, dogs and cats.
Egglac Gold is packaged in 22.7 kg (50 lb) poly-lined kraft paper bags and.
should be stored in a cool, dry space and fed within 1 year of receipt.
EggLac Gold is safer because it contains no blood, blood plasma, or blood cells.

16 g x 1 g/ml x 10 mg/ml IgY = 160 mg IgY/egg
55 g x 0.245 = 13.475 g solids/egg
160 mg IgY ÷ 0.013475 kg solids/egg
= 11,873 mg/kg ≈ 12,000 ppm
