A healthy gastrointestinal system can help poultry achieve optimal production of meat or eggs.  The gastrointestinal system for chicken has two important functions: digestion & absorption and immunity. The intestinal mucosa provides an effective barrier between unfriendly luminal content and the host internal tissues. A dynamic balance between the mucus layer, epithelial cells, microbiota and immune cells in the intestine is of importance for the intestinal barrier functions.

The risk of mycotoxins entering the feed chain is almost unavoidable, and poses a serious threat to the health and productivity of poultry birds. More than 1,000+ mycotoxins have been discovered, and recent studiesshow climatic changescan also significantly increase the risk of mycotoxins. In the last few years, we have seen sporadic incidences of pesticide toxicity in the Indian subcontinent, which have caused severe losses to poultry producers.

Kemin is launching a new customer service tool to better assess the oxidative quality and nutritional value of oils and fats in feed. The Lipid Evaluation Test provides nutritionists with accurate lipid profiles containing the apparent metabolizable energy (AME) values, oxidative status andto standardize variations of oils and fats in animal nutrition.

Oils and fats are critical ingredients in feed formulations due to their high energy-yielding potential. However, like many raw materials, these lipids come from a wide variety of sources and are prone to large variations in their nutritive value. “Traditionally, nutritionists analysed oils and fats using the standard energy value, which our researchers have found to be quite different from the actual values. With the help of Lipid Evaluation Test, nutritionists can formulate feed with more accurate lipid nutrient values and to get more standard and reliable performances.

CHENNAI, India – June 2016 –  The Animal Feed Industry relies on high-quality laboratory data to ensure quality and consistency in feed production. Laboratory Analysts in the Feed Industry generate critical data for the continuous successful operations of the feed industry. Currently the industry is facing challenges due to the high price and poor quality of the raw materials, which has led to adulteration in the feed ingredients resulting in poor performance in birds.

HERENTALS, Belgium – May 17, 2016 - Kemin launchesLYSOFORTE^®Liquid,a bio-surfactant, which revolutionizes the application process by directlydosing the bio-surfactant into the oil and fat application line. LYSOFORTE^®Liquid standardizes the natural variation in the energy value of oils and fats and improves the digestion and absorption of nutrients in feed, makingLYSOFORTE^®Liquid one of the most cost-effective bio-surfactantson the market. The product has been launched in Europe, Middle East, India and in a number of markets in Asia. The product will launch in additional countries upon registration.
