BIOMIN to Showcase Latest Product Innovation at VIV Europe 2010

Biomin® P.E.P. MGE offers the latest in essential oils encapsulation technology for the feed additives industry. Using a modern matrix-encapsulation process, heat-sensitive phytogenic compounds such as essential oils are successfully “trapped” and evenly distributed in a matrix-capsule. This technology enhances ingredient bioavailability and efficacy while avoiding problems of degradation from high temperatures and oxidation that often lead to an inevitable loss in feed quality. Product shelf-life is also extended as a result.

Besides higher stability, Biomin® P.E.P. MGE also tackles the odour issue common in powdered essential oil additives. Active ingredients are gradually released in the digestive tract.

Biomin® P.E.P. MGE provides enhancement of palatability, improves digestibility and consequently animal performance.
