What is FerAppease for Cattle?
The first and only technology that mitigates stress and its negative effects in cattle of all ages. Gives calves the comfort of being with mom. Each ml contains 100 mg of the maternal bovine appeasing substance (MBAS), a natural secretion produced by nursing cows that decreases threat perception and provides a sense of comfort to calves.
When should I use FerAppease?
FerAppease can and should be used every time animals are exposed to management and physiological stressors. Stressful management strategies such as weaning, dehorning, castration, branding, transportation, commingling and vaccination. Stressful physiological events such as parturition, interruption of lactation (dry off) and breeding.
What is FerAppease MBAS?
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.
