Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by a wide variety of fungi, especially species of the genera Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Fusarium. The main mycotoxins found in animal feed are aflatoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON), fumonisins, ochratoxin A, T-2 toxin, and zearalenone. It is estimated that 50% of all agriculture commodities produced worldwide are contaminated with mycotoxins. In addition, many mycotoxigenic fungi can produce more than one mycotoxin, and several fungi species are found simultaneously in raw materials used in animal feed. Mycotoxins significantly impact animal health and cause substantial financial losses in livestock production.

When animals consume mycotoxins-contaminated feed, and during digestion, the mycotoxin molecules are released from the feed. Toxins reaching the small intestine infect intestinal cells, rupture intercellular junctions, and result in a leaky gut. This prevents nutrient digestion and absorption, impairs organ function, diminishes immune response and allows toxins to enter the blood circulation, resulting in devastating health problems and production losses.

ZeroTox^® Prime Implements Two Strategies

‍

Adsorption

ZeroTox^® Prime applies two adsorption methods:

• Inorganic adsorption using proprietary modified bentonite to eliminate polar and less polar mycotoxins. 
• Organic adsorption using highly purified Mannan oligosaccharides and Beta 1.3 -1.6 D-glucan that binds polar and non-polar mycotoxins.

‍

The unique properties of ZeroTox^® Prime enable it to bind mycotoxins and reduce or prevent their absorption through the digestive tract of animals. This range of active components ensures the irreversible adsorption of a wide range of mycotoxins, including Aflatoxins, Ochratoxin, Zearalenone and T-2 toxin.

‍

Immune Augmentation

ZeroTox^® Prime biological components eliminate the adverse immunosuppressive effects of mycotoxins, ensuring proper liver function, activating the immune system macrophages, and triggering a cascade of immune events, thus turning the immune system into an arsenal of defence. As a result, ZeroTox^® prime increases feed intake, improves performance, and supports intestinal health.

Features 

• ZeroTox^® Prime contains unique components that work synergistically to eliminate mycotoxins and increase performance.
• ZeroTox^® Prime includes a modified and highly active bentonite toxin binder that performs at Low and high gastrointestinal pH. 
• ZeroTox^® Prime adsorbs mycotoxins, a process by which yeast cell wall bind to mycotoxins resulting in the excretion of toxins in feces.
• ZeroTox^® Prime stimulates mucosal and nonspecific immunity.
• ZeroTox^® Prime has a broad spectrum binding capacity against a wide range of mycotoxins such as Aflatoxin, Ochratoxin, Zearalenone  DON, and T-2 Toxin.
• ZeroTox^® Prime is effective at low dosages and stable in high temperatures. 

Benefits 

• Multi-strategic with more broad-spectrum protection.
• Effective against polar and non-polar mycotoxins while maintaining essential nutrients in the feed, like vitamins and minerals.
• Organically binds non-polar mycotoxins with high affinity.
• Improve animal immunity and optimizes the vaccination program.
• Improves animal performance, FCR and organ protection.
• Suitable for pelleted feed.
