Anti-caking and Flow Agent for Animal Feed
HUNTER-TOX is a mixture of hydrated calcium and sodium aluminosilicates (HSCAS), thermally activated with diatomaceous earth. It acts as a broad-spectrum mycotoxin adsorbent, flow agent, and anti-caking agent, reducing moisture hotspots in stored grains and feed. It prevents crusts or pastes that can serve as critical points for fungal contamination and the subsequent generation of mycotoxins.
Benefits of Using HUNTER-TOX:
- Reduces caking zones in feed during storage.
- Binds mycotoxin molecules via electric attraction forces, making them too large to be absorbed and facilitating their excretion in feces.
- Protects animals from adverse effects caused by contamination with mycotoxins and other toxins.
- Improves intestinal health.
- Increases water retention in the intestine, resulting in drier, less odorous feces.
- Slows the passage rate of the food bolus through the digestive tract, allowing greater contact with intestinal villi, increasing enzymatic activity, and improving nutrient absorption—considered a feed efficiency enhancer.
- Enhances pellet quality.
- Improves production costs.
