Swine

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

AviP®-protect S

AviP®–protect S combination of sorbic acid and botanicals, microencapsulated in a lipid matrix, specifically designed to control zoonotic pathogens in swine production.

INCREASED FOOD SAFET
Sorbic acid is a food preservative with strong antibacterial power. Botanicals included in AviP®–protect S have documented efficacy against major food-borne pathogenic bacteria.

Efficacy of sorbic acid is increased by the synergy with these botanicals.

INTESTINAL SLOW RELEASE

Microencapsulation allows the slow release of the active ingredients along the gastrointestinal tract and delivers them to the distal part of the small intestine in appreciable and effective amounts.
