Did you know that stress shifts your beef cattle's metabolism into survival mode? Stress may lead to decreasing weight gain and feed conversion and worsening health outcomes. Stress is a major obstacle keeping the beef industry from becoming a more profitable endeavor. You can overcome stress with FerAppease.
The active ingredient of FerAppease is a synthetic analogue of the Maternal Bovine Appeasing Substance (MBAS). MBAS is a naturally occurring substance that is secreted by the skin of the mammary gland of lactating animals, eliminating stress in all beef cattle treated.
FerAppease can and should be used every time beef cattle are exposed to management stressors, where suppression of threat perception is desirable.

The amygdala responds quickly to potential threats in the environment and plays a key role in determining whether environments are perceived as safe or dangerous.
Threat perception leads to activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis leading to increased release of the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol from the adrenal glands and increased release of the catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine.
Threat perception ultimately leads to elevated inflammation, immunosuppression, increased risk for BRD, decreased DMI, weight loss, energy inefficiency, increased morbidity and mortality.
Topically administered Maternal Bovine Appeasing Substance (MBAS) is locally assimilated by the vomeronasal organ located in the nasal cavity.
MBAS mediated stimulation of the vomeronasal gland desensitizes regions of the amygdala and the hypothalamus decreasing the perception of threat.

PRESS MENTIONS
The active ingredient of FerAppease is a synthetic analogue of the Maternal Bovine Appeasing Substance (MBAS). MBAS is naturally secreted by the sebaceous gland located on the skin of the mammary gland with the unique function of inducing an appeasing effect on the nursing offspring.
FerAppease is topically applied, and the active ingredient (MBAS) is assimilated by the vomeronasal gland located in the nose of the animals. The MBAS stimulation of the vomeronasal gland desensitizes regions of the amygdala and the hypothalamus, dramatically decreasing threat perception and its downstream stress consequences.
FerAppease is for use only in healthy cattle by topical administration behind the poll and to the skin above the muzzle.
FerAppease can and should be used every time animals are exposed to management and physiological stressors where suppression of threat perception is desirable. i.e. weaning, dehorning, castration, branding, transportation, commingling, vaccination, parturition, interruption of lactation (dry off), breeding, et al.
> 200 lb: Apply 5 mL of FerAppease behind the poll and a second 5 mL application to the skin above the muzzle.
< 200 lb: Apply 2.5 mL of FerAppease behind the poll and a second 2.5 mL application to the skin above the muzzle.
Behavior modulation and stress mitigation starts to take place immediately after FerAppease is applied.
No, FerAppease does not require a veterinarian's prescription or a Veterinary Feed Directive plan.
> 200 lb - 10 mL dose: $3.00/ head
< 200 lb - 5 mL dose: $1.50/ head
There are no known side effects.
No, there is no withdrawal period after using FerAppease.
FerAppease is an oil-based product. It is recommended to apply FerAppease on a dry animal. It is best to allow FerAppease at least 30 minutes to absorb into the skin of the animal before getting wet.
FerAppease is effective for a period of 14 days. Most economically relevant, stressful events have a duration of less than 14 days. Therefore, a single application will get the animals through the entire challenge period.
If an animal is being run through the chute after the 14-day period for any reason such as revaccinating, studies have shown there are benefits to reapplication at this time.
FerAppease has a two-year shelf life.
Store at controlled room temperature at 10 - 30℃ (50-86℉). Do not refrigerate or freeze.
FerAppease is available for purchase in feed stores, veterinary clinics, through your MWI/AHI representatives or on our website.
A p-value is a statistical measure used to determine the significance of results in a hypothesis test. It indicates the probability of obtaining the observed results if the null hypothesis (no effect or difference) is true. A low p-value (≤ 0.05) suggests rejecting the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis (indicating an effect or difference), while a high p-value (> 0.05) suggests retaining the null hypothesis.
