Animal Nutrition & Health
Symphiome™ is a complex glycan mixture technically defined as a Precision Biotic*. A first-of-its-kind microbiome metabolic modulator precisely designed to harness the power of the microbiome by modulating specific and highly conserved functional pathways to enhance the nutritional health and performance of the birds. Its unique mode of action sets the product into its own category of Microbiome Metabolic Modulators.

When it comes to optimal gut health, the microbiome should function like an orchestra playing in perfect harmony.
Conducting this orchestra is Symphiome™, a unique first of-its-kind Precision Biotic. Symphiome™ unique mode of action increases metabolic functions intrinsic to the bird’s microbiome that detoxify unabsorbed amino acids and leaked host protein independent of the microbiota composition.
Symphiome™ improves resilience to enteric stress, aids in nutrient utilization, improves welfare, and reduces emissions. In laying birds, Symphiome™ helps maintain their productive life during challenges.
With three granted patents, Symphiome™ reinforces its leadership in microbiome-based feed additives for animal health and performance:
These breakthroughs mark a major step toward delivering science-backed, precision nutrition solutions for animal welfare and productivity.
In the past decade, there has been a transformative discovery in microbiome science. Scientific advances in both humans and animals show that microbial communities often exhibit stable functions (e.g., metabolic output) despite immense variations in microbial composition between different hosts. The identities of the gut microorganisms can change without changing the set of functions they perform as a unit.
Improving the profitability alongside the health and welfare needs of a flock is challenging for modern poultry producers. To meet this challenge, dsm-firmenich developed an innovative Precision Biotic that works with the bird’s microbiome. The mode of action of Symphiome™ increases metabolic functions intrinsic to the bird’s microbiome that detoxify unabsorbed amino acids and leaked host protein independent of the microbiota composition. This helps the gut achieve optimal structure and function, irrespective of individual differences in the flock’s gut microbiota. By modulating the type and quantity of metabolites the microbiome produces, Symphiome™ helps to conduct a metabolic symphony in the gut, which in return increases resilience to enteric stress, aids in nutrient utilization, improves welfare and reduces emissions.
SymphiomeTM acts as a conductor - encouraging cooperation among existing microbes that share beneficial pathways and directing the metabolites being produced targeting the microbiome metabolic pathways which:
