Its structure consists of countless holes (openings) at the micromolecular level. It is hydrophilic, i.e. it can absorb and eliminate water up to 60% of its weight. It has a high ion exchange capacity and can bind elements and compounds of large molecular structure. It could also be described as a filter or a molecular ... Read more
Alternatives to antibiotics for farm animals
New strategies and commercial products must be developed to improve animal health and performance, based on their safety, efficacy and cost-effectiveness. The aim of this study is to summarize the beneficial effects of currently used alternatives to in-feed antibiotics, i.e. probiotics, prebiotics, organic acids, phytogenic compound sand zeolites on health and growth performance in farm animals (swine, poultry and ruminants)
