METEX NØØVISTAGO announced the launch of inneus®, a new solution range which aims to positively influence intestinal health of piglets and poultry.
METEX NØØVISTAGO has unveiled a new solution range for animal nutrition: inneus®. The products in the inneus® range, available for piglet and poultry, are unique solutions based on a synergistic combination of functional amino acids potentialized by specifically selected polyphenols. inneus® aims to positively influence intestinal health in order to help the host to better cope with some physiological and sanitary challenges such as weaning for piglets, or coccidiosis for chickens.
inneus® is the results of an intense and fruitful R&D program, aiming to understand the role of the functional amino acids and their synergies in the support of digestive physiology of monogastric animals.
FROM A SCIENTIFIC CONCEPT TO A UNIQUE SOLUTION
Indeed, during the last years, the R&D team focused the effort on functional amino acids scientific concept, trying to design a complete solution, targeting the 4 main pillars of gut health: gut barrier function, immune fitness, oxidative status homeostasis, and microbiota balance.
Kostas Syriopoulos, in charge of inneus® brand, explains: “It has been a really exciting challenge. From the literature and a transcriptomic analysis of the intestine, we’ve been able to identify some key candidates and their roles. The objective was then to find the right combination and the right synergy, to end up with a complete solution which can be implemented at a consistent dose (1kg/T), reaching all key aspects of digestive health. We’ve found out the need to potentialize the specific targeting of functional amino acids with a selected polyphenol, notably to reach the hindgut and be able to positively modulate the microbiota.”
The results of this R&D program have been disclosed through several scientific publications in congress such as JRP, DPP, and soon WPC.
Two inneus® solutions are available today, one for piglets and one for poultry.
