APICAL LIQUID
APICAL LIQUID is a synergistic
mixture of carboxylic acids and their salts which counteract pathogenic
bacteria in feed and drinking water, while maintaining a favourable
microbial balance in the poultry house.
Use
In drinking water and in feeds and feed ingredients to kill Salmonellae
and other Gram-negative bacteria, such as pathogenic E.coli, to prevent
these microbes to (re)contaminate feeds and prevent their entry into the
digestive tract of birds.
In drinking water in which this supplemental feed is being added, it is advised to use APICAL LIQUID
for 4 or 5 consecutive days, via clean water lines, to be followed by
24 hours' application of a product based on sodium hypochlorite or
hydrogen peroxide to kill micro-organisms which can utilize organic
acids. Prevent mixing with cleaning agents or disinfectants by always
flushing the whole system with clean water before starting the
application of the next product.
Benefits
APICAL LIQUID in water kills over 99,9% of Salmonellae and E.coli organisms within 10 minutes
Allows survival of beneficial microflora, such as lactobacilli. Such a flora obstructs the colonization of undesirable Gram-negative microflora in the gut
Is a supplemental feed but can be used in feed and in feed raw materials
to protect against fungal growth in addition to its antibacterial action in the feed
Complies with European feed legislation with RAMSHORST being a GMP / HACCP certified company
Does not corrode the normal equipment in a feedmill or on a farm
Does not affect feed or water intake
Increases utilization of feed by means of improved hygienic conditions
Increases eggshell thickness
Ingredients
Formic Acid
Propionic Acid
Ammonium Formate
Ammonium Propionate
Packaging
jerrycans 5 liter
jerrycans 25 liter
containers 200 liter
containers 1000 liter (delivery takes an extra week)
Dose
Advisable in drinking water:
1 liter / 1000 liter for antimicrobial protection and improved technical results
2 liter / 1000 liter for extra protection in sensitive situations
In feeds and feed ingredients:
2 kg / tonne for antimicrobial protection
4 kg / tonne in sensitive situations
Energy Effect
There are indications that the use of APICAL LIQUID does improve energy utilization, due to its hygienic effect on the environmental microbial flora. Use of APICAL POWDER added to layer feed at a rate of 0.2% can prevent unnecessary feed consumption amounting to as much as 30 - 60 kcal.
