Apex 5:
Enhanced botanical booster

Apex 5:<br />Enhanced botanical booster

Adisseo has combined its extensive knowledge and understanding of beneficial natural compounds with new and innovative in-house testing techniques to create Apex 5 : the optimal combination of performance enhancing botanical components currently available for poultry and swine species.

Apex 5 benefits:

Performance enhancement inspired by nature and refined by research

Improved digestion, gut protection and gut microbial support

Stable, easy to handle, with no withdrawal period

Health and performance challenges

Achieving optimum efficiency and profit is often challenged by many factors that can negatively impact health and performance on the modern poultry  and swine units. Consumer concerns and regulatory controls, however, continue to make the traditional tools to combat these problems less available.

The industry is therefore seeking effective alternatives that can help overcome these challenges and improve performance and productivity.

 

Research based performance enhancement

Apex 5 contains a specific mix of botanical components that has been optimised by research for efficacy and stability.

Using innovative and novel in vivo and in vitro techniques, Adisseo was able to explore and understand the mode of action of specific components, to maximize the stability of the essential oil core, and to establish ideal ratios and concentrations to achieve maximum effect in the digestive tract.
