Product Background

A novel alternative approach to control coccidiosis which contains triterpenoid saponins that bind to the cholesterol of the protozoan cell membrane. Several bio-active immunomodulatory compounds reinforce the bird’s immunity during coccidiosis infection. The antioxidant bio-actives can alleviate the excess of the oxidative stress during infection. The plant bio-actives have been selected for their ability to reduce the acute inflammation encountered during coccidiosis.

Product Benefits

• Anti-parasitic effect - Feed Ingredient Anticoccidial interferes with the Eimeria cell wall synthesis Feed Ingredient Anticoccidial contains triterpenoid saponins that bind to the cholesterol of the protozoan cell membrane. This leads to incomplete oocyst wall synthesis and eventually to partial cell lysis and cell death.
• Enhancing immunity - Feed Ingredient Anticoccidial contains several bio-active immunomodulatory compounds (Saponins, Terpenoids) that reinforce the bird’s immunity during coccidial infection.
• Reducing oxidative stress - Phenolics, Flavonoids, Carotenoids. Reactive oxidative species are produced by the host’s cellular immune response during the invasion by Eimeria species. Although this plays a role in defending against parasitic infections, when concentrations exceed a certain level, they cause tissue damage and cytotoxicity. The antioxidant bio-actives within Feed Ingredient Anticoccidial can alleviate excessive oxidative stress.
• Ameliorating inflammatory challenge - Saponins, Alkaloids. Upon invasion of Eimeria, a strong inflammatory response is induced which results in the destruction of the intestinal villi, diarrhea, hemorrhage cases, and, death in severe cases. The plant bio-actives within Feed Ingredient Anticoccidial reduce the acute inflammatory response during coccidial infection.
