Product Benefits.

Modes of Action.

Our effective range of feed additives and dietary feed supplements are specifically selected and developed to support animal health and productivity.

Adsorption

Modified surfaces with different pore sizes, optimal charge distributions and a large specific surface allow a stable binding of various kinds of mycotoxins in the entire gastrointestinal tract.

Antioxidant

Reactive oxygen species are increased during metabolic processes or due to lipid peroxidative substances. Antioxidants scavenge these highly damaging molecules, protecting vital cells and tissues.

Molds and their mycotoxins are a persistent problem in the animal feed industry, despite high quality standards. These toxic metabolites can be responsible for a wide range of health problems in animals, including reduced reproductive performance, decreased milk production, reduced feed efficiency, and suppression of the immune system. Mycotoxins can even contaminate milk and meat, making them a genuine threat to humans and animals.

Several mycotoxins have been identified as particularly harmful to production animals. These include aflatoxins, ochratoxins, zearalenone, T-2/HT2-toxin, deoxynivalenol, and fumonisins. To protect against their harmful effects, nutritionally inert substances— mycotoxin binders—are added to the feed. Their simple but effective function is to bind mycotoxins in the intestine and prevent absorption.

B.I.O.Tox® Activ8’s supreme binding capabilities make it highly effective against all major mycotoxins, including aflatoxins, ochratoxins, zearalenone, T-2/HT2-toxin, deoxynivalenol, and fumonisins. To achieve its impressive toxin-binding capabilities, B.I.O.Tox® Activ8 undergoes a unique treatment that creates just the right properties for the adsorption of different mycotoxins, which differ in their physical and chemical properties.

However, B.I.O.Tox® Activ8 is more than just a mycotoxin binder; it also contains natural detoxifiers that support the liver’s antioxidative and detoxifying processes. B.I.O.Tox® Activ8 helps to prevent or counteract the damage caused by mycotoxins and improves overall performance. The additional phytogenic additives in B.I.O.Tox® Activ8 support the whole organism—they help maintain the integrity of the intestinal epithelium and support the immune system and the liver.

B.I.O.Tox® Activ8 is a reliable and scientifically supported solution to mycotoxin contamination in animal feed. Its combination of supreme binding capabilities and natural detoxifiers makes it a holistic solution for improving animal health and performance as well as protecting human safety. B.I.O.Tox® Activ8 is your solution for fast and efficient mycotoxin control!
