The BioPro® Series: Effective organic acid combinations for pigs of all ages
Organic acids are well known for their antimicrobial properties. In pigs, each one has a specific effect. Adding the right combination makes it possible to suppress various harmful bacteria, molds, and yeasts and keep the gastrointestinal tract in balance.
Organic acids hinder the growth of harmful microorganisms by reducing the pH in the digestive tract. A lower pH also stimulates enzyme activity in the stomach and small intestine, improving nutrient digestion.
Individual organic acids have different effects on harmful microorganisms and gastrointestinal balance. Combining organic acids is therefore beneficial when wanting to prevent different microorganisms. Individual organic acids peak at different pH levels. A blend of organic acids provides benefits throughout the digestive tract.
Offering organic acids in five combinations for sows, piglets, growers, and finishers, the BioPro® series from Vilomix is the effective way to achieve these benefits:
