Harnessing the potential of
MINAZEL PLUS
to improve production parameters
and reduce the negative effects of mycotoxins in broilers

MINAZEL PLUS is a mycotoxin adsorbent created with the latest technology to bind the main mycotoxins found in grains and feed.

Mycotoxins are one of the most dangerous contaminant present in feed. A recent survey carried out by PATENT CO demonstrated that 99% of the corn samples are contaminated by at least one type of mycotoxin in the Americas.

Chronic intoxication with Aflatoxins can manifest with decreased weight gain, reduced feed conversion and, sometimes, diarrhea.

Fumonisins, in the most severe cases of intoxication, can cause symptoms such as diarrhea, decreased food intake, and decreased body weight gain.

Toxin T-2 can cause a reduction or refusal of food intake, as well as digestive disorders such as ulceration and visceral bleeding.

So, the use of strong and robust Mycotoxin Adsorbent is essential to reach the highest potential of the broilers.

MINAZEL PLUS is a mycotoxin adsorbent created with the latest technology to bind the main mycotoxins found in grains and feed.

In order to create a differentiated product, PATENT CO has identified the strengths of mycotoxins, allowing us to attack their weaknesses.

MINAZEL PLUS has 4 factors that make it different:

1. EFFICACY: ability to adsorb polar and less-polar mycotoxins
2. SELECTIVITY: it does not adsorb feed nutrients such as vitamins, amino acids and minerals.
3. SPEED OF ADSORPTION: knowing that mycotoxins begin to be absorbed by the body 30 min after ingestion, the adsorbent must be able to have adsorbed as many mycotoxins as possible before that time.
4. DESORPTION: throughout the digestive tract, the adsorbent + mycotoxin complex passes through different pH. If the adsorbent is not stable in these pH changes, it will “release” the mycotoxin, causing desorption and allowing the mycotoxin to become available again to be absorbed by the body.
