Energy – in particular fats and oils –  is a major portion of production cost in modern broiler production.  The efficiency in converting feed into body mass is thus of critical concern for broiler producers.
But this is a big challenge as young animals, in general, are not adapted to consume and digest large amounts of fat. Their digestive system is still immature and the level of (co-)lipase and bile salts only gradually increases as they grow older.

The nutritional emulsifier, Volamel Extra, mimics and fortifies the effects of natural bile salts, resulting in improved fat digestibility and fat absorption and maximizes the use of energy included in the feed.

Worldwide performed studies with different fat sources and in different types of feed formulas, shows, that our nutritional emulsifier, has been proven to be able to compensate on average for 3% of metabolizable energy in the feed.  Moreover, the product allows the  use of a broader range of fats, like highly saturated fats or fatty acid blends, without loss in performance.

With increased pressure on antibiotic consumption, especially within the EU, more attention is being paid to the positive relationship between digestibility and health. The value of a nutritional emulsifier can also be expressed in improved intestinal health, less problems with wet litter, lower foot pad lesion scoring not only by a better fat digestion, but also by a better gut integrity, and beneficial modifications in the gut microbiome.
