Cysteamine

Cysteamine works through the endocrine system rather than as a nutrient. It depletes somatostatin, the hormone that suppresses growth hormone release, so growth hormone circulates at a higher level and feed converts more efficiently into lean tissue. It is unstable and irritant in the free form, so it is supplied coated or as a stable […]

Clove Oil

Clove oil is dominated by eugenol, which gives it antimicrobial, antioxidant and mild anaesthetic properties. In feed it is used within phytogenic blends for gut health; in aquaculture the anaesthetic effect is also used directly during handling and transport. As with other essential oils, volatility means the delivery system determines whether the active reaches the […]

Glycocyamine

Glycocyamine, also called guanidinoacetic acid, is the direct precursor of creatine. Supplying it lets the animal build its own creatine, which is central to the energy system driving muscle contraction and growth. It matters most in diets with little or no animal protein, since plant based rations supply almost no creatine. It also spares arginine […]

Thyme Oil

Thyme oil is a phytogenic feed additive whose activity comes chiefly from thymol and carvacrol. Both disrupt bacterial cell membranes, which gives the oil antimicrobial activity against common gut pathogens, alongside antioxidant effects. Essential oils are volatile, so the form matters more than the raw concentration. Encapsulated or adsorbed products survive pelleting and release in […]

Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid

GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, and in feed it is used chiefly as an anti stress additive. Its most established application is in poultry under heat stress, where it supports feed intake and reduces body temperature rise. It also has effects on growth hormone secretion and gut motility. Because the response is tied to stress […]

Lemon Oil

Lemon oil is a citrus essential oil dominated by limonene. In feed it is used as a palatant and aroma component, and for the mild antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of its terpene fraction. It is highly volatile, so unprotected oil largely evaporates during pelleting. Encapsulated or adsorbed forms are what survive to reach the animal, […]

Feed-Grade DMPT

DMPT, dimethyl-beta-propiothetin, is a compound found naturally in marine algae and is one of the strongest known feeding attractants for fish and shrimp. It works on chemoreception, drawing animals to the feed quickly and reducing the time pellets sit uneaten in the water. That improves feed conversion and reduces the nutrient load leaching into the […]

Peppermint Oil

Peppermint oil is dominated by menthol and menthone. In feed it is used for digestive support, for its mild antimicrobial activity, and for a cooling sensory effect that helps maintain feed intake in hot conditions. It is also used in poultry respiratory support programmes. As with all essential oils, the protection system determines whether the […]

Feed Emulsifier

A feed emulsifier is a surfactant, most often a lysophospholipid or a polyethylene glycol ester, that improves the emulsification of dietary fat so it can be absorbed more completely. The benefit is largest exactly where natural emulsification is weakest: in young birds and piglets whose bile production is still developing, and in diets carrying cheaper, […]
