Bioseutica, the global leader in lysozyme, has developed Entegard®, an innovative range of products designed to overcome the challenges of livestock RWA (Raised Without Antibiotics). Administered via feed or drinking water, Entegard® helps to maintain healthy gut flora and gut barrier function by sustaining the structural integrity of the intestinal wall through its direct and natural antibacterial activity. This leads to optimum nutrient absorption with a positive impact on the health and development of livestock. The Entegard® formulations are designed to provide protection and restore microbiological balance.
Lysozyme is its active component. Entegard® is the perfect solution for swine and piglets' antibiotic withdrawal period and helps producers overcome the challenges associated with (ABF) antibiotic-free production.
