1. The Total Mycotoxin Inactivator UltraSorb ®

2. STRENGTH OF UltraSorb ® : Scientific criteria supporting Scientific criteria supporting the superiority of the product

3. Unique Composition, combining - Hydrated Alumino Silicates - Mannan Oligo Saccharides - Organic acids - Activated Charcoal

4. Effects of Unique Composition Effects of Unique Composition Hydrated Alumino Silicates Purpose : attraction and captation of toxines Effects : better growth + better muscle gain

5. Effects of Unique Composition Effects of Unique Composition Mannan Oligo Saccharides (MOS) Purpose : adhesion pathogenic bacteria and stimulation mucosal immunity Effects : improvement overall intestinal health

6. Effects of Unique Composition Effects of Unique Composition Organic Acids Purpose : creating an acid environment means less growth/adhesion of pathogenic bacteria Effects : improvement overall intestinal health + more weight gain

7. Effects of Unique Composition Effects of Unique Composition Activated Charcoal Purpose : absorption of harmful and undesirable substances Effects : improvement overall intestinal health + more weight gain

8. 2) Look at net efficacy = adsorption - desorption 3) Activity spectrum besides aflatoxins : vomitoxin, ochratoxin, zearalenone, T-2 zearalenone, T-2 4) No nutrient binding at maximum dosage recommended for binding mycotoxins in feed binding mycotoxins in feed 1) High binding capacity at recommended dosage rate : supported by scientifically validated test procedure at dosage used in practise 5) Data on ‘in vivo” effect (cfr. Dr. Nick Dale, 1998) 7) Lowest cost in correct dosage range 6) Totally safe (heavy metals, dioxins, pcb’s) Scientific criteria supporting UltraSorb ®

12. Experiments at INTA - Instituto Nacional de Technologia Agropecuaria, Pergamino B.A.) 2 groups of 80 birds (ranking per 1 gram initial weight difference) : summer conditions (25-30°C) FCR 1,95 1,93 UltraSorb ® No nutrient binding

13. Minimum four experimental treatments are necessary : Diet 1 - control diet, with neither aflatoxin nor the binding agent ; Diet 2 - which is Diet 1, but containing aflatoxin ; Diet 3 - which is Diet 1, but containing the binder ; and Diet 4 - which is Diet 2 containing aflatoxin and binder. A test tube can never duplicate the conditions of the digestive tract of the animal. These should then be further evaluated in in vivo tests. Mycotoxin binders: Now it is time for real science

14. Experiments at INTA - Instituto Nacional de Technologia Agropecuaria, Pergamino B.A. Combination of the results from two experiments. Relative value to negative control Without toxins contamination UltraSorb ® does not bind valuable nutrients With toxins contamination UltraSorb ® reduces detrimental effect of aflatoxins Efficacy of UltraSorb ® with and without toxins in the feed
