With many opportunistic pathogens in aquaculture, the risk of disease is never far away. Further, modern aquaculture practices (e.g. disinfection, high organic inputs, high stocking density etc.) favors the rapid proliferation of pathogens. Therefore, continuous, and proactive pathogen management is required throughout the production cycle.
Biotronic® is an enhanced organic acid solution to manage bacterial pathogens and improve the survival of fish and shrimp.
The unique combination of multiple active components acts synergistically to target Gram-negative pathogens minimizing their impact, whilst reducing the need for traditional interventions, such as antibiotics.
Traditionally, organic acids have been used at high inclusions in the attempt to reduce the pH of the feed and gastrointestinal tract. With questionable efficacy in this regard, high inclusions can also be expensive, take up formulation space and damage equipment. Biotronic® overcomes these issues by having direct and targeted antimicrobial effects, maximizing benefits in fish and shrimp.
