The trial was presented at the International Poultry Scientific, coinciding with the IPPE 2022, in Atlanta

On January 25, 2022 Dr. David Díez, veterinarian at Biovet S.A., participated in the International Poultry Scientific Forum (IPSF) with a conference entitled ‘Natural prevention of coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis in broiler’.

Coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis are two diseases caused by Eimeria and Clostridium perfringens, respectively, of great importance in poultry farming due to their negative effects on the production and development of birds.

The conference presented the results of a field trial that evaluated the efficacy of intestinal conditioner and optimizer pronutrients, which can be found in the product Alquernat Coneb, to minimize the consequences of a mixed infection by coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis.

On the other hand, the trial also detailed the combined effect of using Alquernat Coneb and Alquermold Natural, natural preservative with microbicide effect, to prevent mixed infections of the aftermentioned diseases.

Natural products to improve animal welfare in poultry farming

Alquernat Coneb is a product made up of intestinal conditioner and opitimizer pronutrients. These molecules from botanical origin, on the one hand, improve digestive processes and nutrient absorption. On the other hand, they stimulate the local immune system of the intestine so that the animals are capable to break the cycle of coccidia by themselves.

Alquermold Natural is a natural preservative for feed with a broad spectrum of action. Its microbiocidal properties make it also effective against pathogenic bacteria and fungi that can be found in the digestive tract. So, the products is effective in eliminating microorganisms such as E. Coli, Salmonella and Clostridium and promotes the balance of the intestinal microbiota.

Both products have been developed by Biovet S.A. and are natural solutions of botanical origin that do not generate resistances nor residues in the animals. So that, its use is completely safe and do not require withdrawal period.

The trial was presented at the IPSF

The trial was presented within the framework of the International Poultry Scientific Forum (IPSF) which is held annually to coincide with the IPPE in Atlanta. Biovet S.A., in addition to the conference, was present at a stand together with its distributor in the United States IFTA USA.
