 PoultryStar® is a well-defined, multi-species synbiotic product that promotes a beneficial gut microflora through the combined action of carefully selected probiotic microorganisms and prebiotic fructooligosaccharides. PoultryStar® is designed to improve gut health and to make day old chicks and birds of all ages more resistant to pathogens.
Why use PoultryStar®?
An improved gut microflora is known to play a significant role in protecting day old chicks and birds of all ages against colonization by pathogenic bacteria. Under commercial conditions a great deal of effort is placed in sanitary practices. For example, preventive measures at the hatchery to protect day old chicks from early exposure to pathogens. However, sanitary practices also reduce the number of beneficial bacteria from the environment leaving day old chicks vulnerable to intestinal opportunistic pathogens. PoultryStar® will help the bird to establish and maintain a beneficial gut microflora through the synergistic action of probiotics and prebiotics leading to improved parameters and increased profits.
When to use PoultryStar®?
PoultryStar® is adaptable to be used in different poultry production systems and under different environments. The product line comprises a soluble version for drinking water and spray application, and a microencapsulated version for feed application. The use of PoultryStar® is especially beneficial to develop the flora in poultry during phases of intestinal stress or times of high pathogenic challenge.
