ASTROID – The First Oil-Based Toxin Binder

Advanced Protection. Better Nutrition. Higher Performance.

ASTROID – The First Oil-Based Toxin Binder

ASTROID is a unique oil-based toxin binder developed through scientific research and innovation. It utilizes the physical and nutritional value of selected vegetable oil compounds, originally used in human edible oil industries, for application in animal feed production.

ASTROID combines the power of adsorption with the nutritional benefits of oils to support animal performance, improve feed efficiency, enhance feed quality, and reduce overall feed costs.

ASTROID – The First Oil-Based Toxin Binder

Why ASTROID Is Different

Oil-Based Technology

ASTROID combines selected vegetable oil compounds with advanced toxin-binding technology, creating a feed solution that brings together protection and nutritional value.

Enhanced Toxin Binding

ASTROID provides effective adsorption of mycotoxins and other harmful compounds in the digestive tract, helping reduce their negative impact on animal nutrition.

Improved Nutrition

The oil-based technology contributes nutritional value while supporting nutrient absorption and energy utilization.

Feed Quality & Mixability

ASTROID supports improved mixability of feed components and enhanced pellet-binding properties.

Antioxidant Protection

ASTROID contains TBHQ, providing antioxidant value that helps protect feed from oxidation.

Feed Cost Advantage

ASTROID can help reduce oil inclusion and grain usage in feed formulations, contributing to lower overall feed costs.

Main Benefits of ASTROID

Reduced Oil Inclusion

ASTROID can significantly reduce oil inclusion in poultry and aquafeed formulations.

Reduced Grain Usage

ASTROID can reduce grain, particularly corn, usage in feed formulations.

Lower Overall Feed Costs

By supporting more efficient feed formulations, ASTROID can contribute to lower overall feed costs.

Rumen-Protected Fat

ASTROID can provide a partial supply of rumen-protected fat in dairy cow concentrates.

Improved Feed Mixability

ASTROID supports improved mixability of feed components for feed production.

Enhanced Toxin Binding

ASTROID provides enhanced toxin-binding properties to help reduce the negative impact of harmful compounds in the digestive tract.

Improved Pellet Binding

ASTROID supports improved pellet-binding properties in feed production systems.

Increased Antioxidant Value

The inclusion of TBHQ provides antioxidant value to the feed.

Higher Production Efficiency

ASTROID can support higher production efficiency and reduced electricity consumption in pellet and extruded feed systems.

ASTROID for Poultry Nutrition

ASTROID is designed to support poultry nutrition through a combination of toxin protection and nutritional benefits.

Key benefits include:

• Improved growth rate and reduced FCR
• Increased dietary energy density
• Supply of essential fatty acids and enhanced immune function
• Reduced feed dust levels
• Enhanced palatability
• Improved nutrient absorption due to slower gut transit
• Reduced heat stress

ASTROID for Ruminant Nutrition

ASTROID provides nutritional and feed-related benefits for ruminant applications.

Key benefits include:

• Increased energy density, especially during negative energy balance and heat stress
• Improved milk yield and quality, especially milk fat
• Enhanced reproductive performance
• Reduced metabolic acidosis
• Improved digestion
• Reduced methane production and better energetic efficiency
• Maintained animal health and body condition during energy deficits
• Strengthened immune system

ASTROID for Aquaculture Nutrition

ASTROID is also designed for aquaculture feed applications, supporting nutrition, feed performance, and feed formulation efficiency.

Key benefits include:

• Improved growth rate and reduced FCR
• Increased dietary energy density
• Supply of essential fatty acids and enhanced immune function
• Enhanced palatability
• Improved nutrient absorption due to slower gut transit
• Reduced heat stress

How ASTROID Supports Feed Performance

ASTROID combines oil-based technology with toxin-binding functionality to provide a multi-purpose feed solution.

Its adsorption properties help bind mycotoxins and other harmful compounds in the digestive tract, while the nutritional value of selected vegetable oil compounds supports energy availability and nutrient utilization.

This combination provides a practical approach to feed protection, nutrition, and animal performance.
