- Product Highlights
- Our ahead-of-the-curve EcovaPure™ processing technology produces clean, high-quality egg yolk products efficiently and at lower costs than standard methods.
- Ecovatec’s processing meets consumer preferences for natural egg proteins and lipids that aren’t contaminated and denatured by harsh solvents.
- Ecovatec’s PVP is isolated from 100% pasteurized egg yolk from Canadian egg producers, located near quality grain sources.
- EcovaPure™ PVP is a mixture of peptides isolated from phosvitin protein. Phosvitin is an incredibly bioactive protein which has never been produced in commercial quantities before. In peptide form, it exhibits amazing antioxidant, anti-microbial, anti-carcinogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s metal-binding ability is un-paralleled in nature, resulting in a scientifically proven ability to increase the bio-absorption of iron and to increase bone density though conversion of calcium to bone mineral.
- Ecovatec isolates the whole protein “native” phosvitin and then processes it into its peptides while preserving their full bioactive capacity.
- Hydrolyzed phosvitin peptides (PVP) which are amazingly bioactive peptides that will enhance the absorption of metals and has other beneficial nutraceutical applications. It can be consumed safely.

- Product Applications
EcovaPure™ PVP has a broad range of useful applications and is currently being tested for nutraceutical applications in improving the bioavailability of iron and calcium. Phosvitin is the most highly phosphorylated protein found in nature with unique properties and is being investigated in laboratories worldwide. PVP has proven nutraceutical and cosmetic applications, and its uses in pharmaceutical drugs is being researched.
Nutraceutical Supplements:
- Iron Supplements – increasing absorption which reduces the amount of iron required and decreases side effects (clinical studies pending)
- Calcium Supplements – increasing absorption and providing a measurable increase in bone density (clinical studies pending)
- Natural Antioxidant – fighting cardiovascular disease, carcinogenesis, aging, neurological disorders, inflammatory diseases, diabetes, and more.
Food Industry Applications:
- Add to dairy products to increase the calcium absorption upon consumption.
- Investigate novel food technology - has been tested as a lipid antioxidant in food processing systems, extending product shelf life and improving the quality of meats.
Cosmetic Uses:
- Prevents the accumulation of melanin in cells, leading to a reduction in age spots, hyperpigmentation, and potentially melanoma cancer cells
Pharmaceutical Research Potential: Phosvitin is the most highly phosphorylated protein found in nature with unique properties and is being investigated in laboratories worldwide. The full phosvitin protein is being researched for its anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-carcinogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties. PV is available for laboratories to purchase for further research and testing.
- Exhibits anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and toxin-neutralizing behaviors including killing the bacteria causing sepsis, in vitro.
- Cytotoxic to liver, cervical, lung, stomach, breast and larynx cancer cells, in vitro.
