Depuis janvier, PulseVet fait partie de la gamme de produits de GROVET.

Depuis de nombreuses années, la technologie de Pulsevet, et de son prédécesseur VersaTron, est utilisée avec succès dans le traitement des chevaux. La thérapie s'est avérée efficace dans plusieurs essais cliniques pour traiter de nombreuses indications, notamment les plaies, les lésions tendineuses, les douleurs dorsales et les fractures.

La technologie PulseVet 
PulseVet utilise des ondes sonores électrohydrauliques, ces ondes de choc focalisées et à haute énergie peuvent atteindre les tissus en profondeur. Localement, ces ondes déclenchent une réaction tissulaire. De multiples protéines, des facteurs de croissance ostéogéniques et angiogéniques et des cytokines anti-inflammatoires sont libérés dans les tissus. La croissance des os et des tissus est stimulée. En outre, la formation de nouveaux vaisseaux sanguins entraîne une augmentation du flux sanguin local. Ces processus

Our colleagues Michelle and Sylvia attended last month the 11th edition of EEHNC in Gent for the workshop "update on claims and legislation" for equine nutrition. It was a very useful workshop for our colleagues Michelle and Sylvia responsible for equine nutrition and claims at Grovet.
The EEHNC is an international congress focused on equine health and nutrition. We look forward to next year's edition.

A great success for Grovet! The GDP certificate for human medicines has been obtained. These developments allow us to bring the quality of our products to maximum patient safety. At Grovet we strive for continuous improvement, this is a big step.

For the health of the foal, it is very important that sufficient immunoglobulins are absorbed from colostrum in the first hours of life. To determine whether this has happened sufficiently, the amount of IgG in the blood is determined. 
VMRD has developed an IgG test that provides reliable, objective test results. This allows for appropriate therapy to be initiated in time so that the foal receives sufficient antibodies to protect itself from infection. 
The test strips do not need to be refrigerated and can be used with the VMRD reader that is also used for SAA determination.

 Shock wave has been proven effective in treating a variety of conditions that result in pain and lameness, including:

• Tendon, Ligament and Muscle Injuries
• Osteoarthritis/Degenerative Joint Disease
• Wound Healing
• Foot/Heel Pain
• Bone Healing
• Back/Neck Pain

Grovet's Bentovet

Supplementary mineral feed for horses. Contributes to normal intestinal function in horses and foals. Bentovet consists of 98% bentonite clay minerals, of which 65% is di-tri-octahedral smectite. Di-tri-octahedral smectite is a mineral with a high absorption capacity that can also bind elements related to diarrhea.

Bentovet can be used prior to, during or after occurance of thin feces or diarrhea.

Besides these Vitamin E softgels we expanded our product range with Vitamin E + Selenium softgels. This dietary supplement for horses helps to maintain and support healthy muscle function and to protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. 
Vitamin E and Selenium contribute in different ways to the elimination of free radicals. For optimal protection against oxidative damage, there must be sufficient uptake of Vitamin E and selenium. 
If the dietary content of Vitamin E and Selenium is insufficient, supplementation with Vitamine E (d-a-tocoferol) plus Selenium softgels is advised. 

Both natural vitamin E (d-alfa-tocoferol) and organic selenium will be absorbed by the body sufficiently.
