MAXACTIVAT/ZN
is an innovative zinc oxide that has been physically activated through a unique production method. This technology altered its functional characteristics, particle size, and surface area, increasing the amount of internal energy that was stored in the molecule.
ZINC - ESSENTIAL FOR LIFE
Zinc is an essential cofactor in more than 300 metabolic enzymes, and it is crucial for almost all metabolic processes in the animal. In addition, Zinc is involved in the synthesis and degradation of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, nucleic acid and the metabolism of other micronutrients. It stabilizes the molecular structure of cellular components and membranes, and it has a central role in immune system integrity.
ENERGIZING THE ZINC OXIDE MOLECULE
PROVITA SUPPLEMENTS has succeeded in activating feed grade zinc oxide through a production process that modifies its functional properties particle size, and surface area, causing an increase in the amount of stored internal energy in the ZnO molecule. This, in turn, improves the physiochemical properties of MAXACTIVAT/Zn, making it more reactive when ingested by the animal. It’s simple a much more usable and effective form of ZnO.
ALTERNATIVE TO HIGH-DOSE ZINC SUPPLEMENTATION
When supplemented in high doses, conventional ZnO has been shown to help prevent diarrhea in weaned piglets because E. coli is reduced. However, the resulting risk of heavy metal contamination of the environment has led to a ban of high-dose dietary ZnO in piglet feed in the EU. Because of its activated nature, MAXACTIVAT/Zn has been proven to be a suitable alternative to high-dose ZnO.
ENERGIZING THE OXIDE MOLECULE
- Patented production process
- Novel technology modifies functional properties of the zinc oxide, such as
- Particle size
- Surface area
- Increase stored internal energy
- Improved physiochemical properties
- MAXACTIVAT/Zn is more reactive during ingestion by the animal
LESS DIARRHEA EVIDENCE IN PIGLETS
- Trial with weaned piglets assessed the consistency of feces
- Results showed a lower probability of MAXACTIVAT/Zn supplemented piglets to suffer from diarrhea
- Other trials confirmed animals being more robust, requiring less therapeutic treatments when receiving MAXACTIVAT/Zn
