AQUA 100 for hatcheries
A highly concentrated formulation specifically targeting an application in rearing water of shrimp and fish hatcheries, with optimal solubility and stability in water.
02 — Benefits
3 main benefits
- 01
Stabilizes and safeguards the gut microflora
- 02
Supports gut integrity and nutrient uptake
- 03
Supports the natural defenses of fish and shrimp
03 — Mechanism
Three levels of action on gut function
BACTOCELL AQUA 100 contains the live bacteria Pediococcus acidilactici CNCM I-4622 (MA 18/5M), a homofermentative strain selected for its ability to convert non-digestible complex carbohydrates into L+ lactic acid. It can survive throughout the gut and associate with intestinal cells, plays an important role in microbiota balance, helps protect against non-beneficial bacteria and supports digestive efficiency.
- 01
Complex nutrient conversion
Results in better utilization of non-digestible fractions of the feed.
- 02
More beneficial bacteria
By enhancing lactic acid bacteria, it favors commensal positive bacteria (Lactobacillus).
- 03
A stronger gut barrier
Supports the optimal development and function of the intestinal epithelial barrier and reinforces the animal's natural defenses.
