Scientific Opinion on the safety and efficacy of Biosprint® (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) for cattle for fattening

Abstract The additive Biosprint® is a microbiological feed additive containing cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The applicant has requested the re‐evaluation of the product when used as a zootechnical additive (functional group: gut flora stabilisers) in diets for cattle for fattening at a minimum...
