Poultry

For over 40 years, our microencapsulation technology empowered the delivery and the slow-release of active ingredients to the intestine of poultry, bypassing the gastric environment.Our scientific research demonstrated that it is possible to maximize performance by lowering the concentration of the compounds.

AviPremium®

AviPremium® is a complete range of products based on tributyrin, a triglyceride of butyric acid that helps to maintain the integrity of the intestinal mucosa.

 

INNOVATIVE

AviPremium® products are based on tributyrin, a triacylglycerol of butyric acid (EU Reg. 1831/2003; FDA 21 CFR 184.1903). Tributyrin is the most concentrated derivate of butyric acid on the market. The tributyrin in AviPremium® is more stable and has superior organoleptic characteristics than butyric acid. AviPremium® products are an alternative to Na-butyrate. In this product, the butyric acid from tributyrin is chemically protected and delivered where butyric acid can be effective. The esterification with glycerol allows the butyric acid to be released in the intestine due to the action of pancreatic lipases. Its microencapsulation allows further advantages and efficacy at the intestinal level.

UNIQUE PRODUCTS

The full range of products is composed of:

AviPremium®L based on liquid tributyrin (85% butyric acid).

AviPremium®D, a concentrated source of tributyrin in powder form (55% butyric acid).

AviPremium®S and AviPremium®P where the tributyrin is microencapsulated within a vegetable lipid matrix according to the digestive characteristics of swine and poultry respectively (25% butyric acid).
