Created by Science.
Formulated with Love.
TEEF for Life's Protektin30™ for cats is a water additive for easy, at-home daily dental hygiene. This formulation contains Organic green algae cracked cell wall (Chlorella) to help absorb fungal toxins associated with stomatitis. TEEF's vegan, prebiotic technology leverages the fundamentals of microbiology and molecular nutrition to promote dental health and fresh breath in a safe, revolutionary way. Just one scoop per day in drinking water works to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria while growing beneficial bacteria essential for optimal dental health.
Every drink works to bathe oral bacteria in our patented formula, which works like a molecular meal plan that puts microbes on a Keto diet. Steering bacteria away from carbohydrates and sugars and towards proteins and amino acids results in healthier and less stinky by-products that cause dental disease. TEEF doesn't kill bacteria, it simply enhances the good bacteria to out-compete the bad for optimal dental health.

| INGREDIENTS | ACTIVITY |
|---|---|
| Non-GMO Soluble Fiber | Blocks bacterial sugar-to-acid & sugar-to-plaque production; Blocks sugar consumption by harmful microbes. |
| L-arginine (amino acid) | Activates protein deimination breakdown by bacteria, resulting in neutrialization of glycolytic acids. |
| Chlorella (algae) | Organic (fresh water) green algae cracked cell wall* functions like a sponge that soaks up fungal toxins associated with stomatitis. *Sourced from fresh water. |
| Vitamin B6 | Essential ingredient for bacterial enzymes that breakdown protein. |
The SMMRT® Approach
To beat the carbohydrate-driven, microbial-dependent disease processes that drive tissue inflammation and destruction, TEEF's Protektin™ formulations are powered by a first-of-its-kind prebiotic technology called Selective Microbial Metabolism Regulation Technology (SMMRT)®. Developed in 2008, this patented approach uses natural, consumable nutrients to stop the growth of destructive microbes while growing beneficial ones necessary for optimal dental health.
3D Imaging - Dental Plaque Figure
A) Plaque swab readout from a canine after consuming a commercial dental chew.
B) Plaque swab readout from a canine exposed to Protektin™ formulations after 24 hours of use. Visible height difference and consistency can be observed in plaque structure (51.98mm vs. 20.13mm).
Protektin™ formulations create a smooth and healthy biofilm (plaque), which promotes healthy gums, whiter teeth, and fresh breath.
Short-term Protektin30-induced effects on periodontal biofilm from feline.
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) produced from subgingival biofilm obtained from a cat with periodontal disease. Swab samples were cultured to form biofilm in RPMI for 24hr. Biofilms were then exposed to fresh RPMI or RPMI+Protektin30 for 5 min, rinsed again and incubated for 48hr under anaerobic conditions. Data represents the average of 8 replicates. Error bars represent the standard deviation across replicates. P<0.0001.
Results: Protektin30 induces ROS production by subgingival plaque samples. ROS is correlated with healthier dental outcomes.
SMMRT® Reduces Growth of Perio & Acne Pathogen, C. acnes
Screening data to assess efficacy on feline periodontal pathogen, C. acnes.
C. acnes is a driver of feline [and human] acne and periodontal disease. Approximately 40 single agents and 31 proprietary agent combinations were screened. Data represents the average percent change in CFU/mL after a 15 minute exposure to some SMMRT agents, compared to media control, after a 72hr post-exposure growth period.
