Zeolite mechanism for improving the economics is due to the natural zeolite structure binding the mycotoxins on the surface and ionically buffering the digestive tract. Due to the surface CEC, the Zeolite surface is polar and will attract the complex and polar mycotoxin molecules.

The internal CEC binds positively charged ions such as the ammonium cation. When excess ammonia builds up in the digestive tract, Zeolite will ion exchange into the lattice, thereby reducing the toxic effects of excess ammonia.

Zeolite is approved by EU for use in the swine and poultry industry as Myco-Toxin binder.

Zeolite is approved by FDA for use in animal feeds for use as an anti-caking agent.

Benefits of Clinoptilolite :

- Anti caking/flow agent for feed and increased feed pellet durability

- Improved animal growth and weight gain by increased food conversion rate efficiencies

- Strong affinity for ammonium provides superior odour control and a healthy environment

- Zeolite is a rumen buffer for the total digestive tract of high performance dairy cattle

- Reduction of scours, acidosis, diarrhea, enteritis and other gastrointestinal diseases

- Improved dispersion of feed ration ingredients by reducing agglomeration
