IDAFIX : multiple solution to mitigate the negative impacts of mycotoxins

Mycotoxins, toxic substances produced by certain fungi, are a well-known threat to the animal nutrition industry. Invisible to the naked eye, they are known as the “invisible killers”. They can contaminate all cereals and other ingredients used in animal feed. This contamination, even in small doses, can have a considerable impact on animal health and performance. To deal with this, IDENA offers an innovative and comprehensive solution: the IDAFIX range.

IDAFIX: a complete range

IDENA has been developing IDAFIX for over 25 years. An innovative and versatile range of products to reduce the risks associated with the presence of mycotoxins in food. This range includes three products designed to adapt to the different profiles and concentrations of mycotoxins encountered.

The IDAFIX products are composed of:

Inorganic and organic adsorbents: These components have various physical structures (lamellar, porous and spongy) which act synergistically, effectively and irreversibly on mycotoxins.
Postbiotics and essential oils: These elements help to make certain mycotoxins less toxic, reinforcing the product’s effectiveness.
Ingredients that support animal health: more specifically, immunity and liver activity. These additions directly target the side effects of mycotoxins, helping animals to maintain their overall health and performance.

What makes IDAFIX unique

There are a number of features that set IDAFIX apart from other solutions on the market:

SPEED OF ACTION: This is a guarantee of effectiveness from the moment the mycotoxins are found in the blood 30 minutes after ingestion.
STABILITY of the ingredients at different physiological pH levels: IDAFIX performance remains intact throughout the digestive tract.
SPECTRUM of action: IDAFIX acts against several types of mycotoxin, offering a universal solution to the problems faced by livestock farmers.
ABSENCE or low INTERACTION with other nutrients: IDAFIX does not interfere with the vitamins, amino acids and minerals present in feed.
CONTINUOUS QUALITY CONTROL: IDENA ensures impeccable quality through rigorous manufacturing and monitoring processes.

A range to enhance animal performance

By combining varied and complementary active ingredients, the IDAFIX range does more than just reduce the toxic effects of mycotoxins. The range also targets microbial endotoxins, other harmful substances that can develop in animals’ digestive tracts. The result: healthier animals that maintain high levels of performance.

Recommendations for use:

Poultry and pigs: 1 to 2 kg per tonne of feed.
Dairy cows, beef cattle and horses: 20 to 40 g per day.
Small ruminants (sheep, goats): 4 to 8 g per day.
Small animals: 2 kg per tonne of feed.

Thanks to this flexibility, IDAFIX products can be easily integrated into different farming systems, whatever the type of animal or diet.

Conclusion

Mycotoxin management is a crucial issue for ensuring animal health and performance. With the IDAFIX range, IDENA offers a complete, innovative and easy-to-use solution.
