EnviroZyme® Launches MultiBio Edge™ for Aquaculture Feeds
EnviroZyme®, a global leader in the development of microbial biotechnologies, announced the launch of MultiBio Edge™, a multi-strain prebiotic, probiotic, and postbiotic feed additive designed for shrimp and finfish aquaculture feeds. Incorporated during the post-pelleting coating process, MultiBio Edge provides feed manufacturers with a differentiated nutritional solution built around three key benefits: Attract. Digest. Thrive.
“MultiBio Edge represents an exciting advancement in how we’re applying microbial technology to aquaculture nutrition,” said Barrett Betz, Vice President of Marketing. “By bringing prebiotic, probiotic, and postbiotic benefits together in one solution, we’re giving feed manufacturers a differentiated way to deliver greater value to their customers while addressing key priorities throughout the production cycle.”
Powerful Enzymatic Activity
The microbial consortia selected for MultiBio Edge produce multiple digestive enzymes that help break down complex feed ingredients, improving nutrient availability, and feed digestibility. Testing demonstrated strong amylase, cellulase, and pectinase activity. The additive also increases feed attractability to support improved feed conversion and inhibits the colonization of Vibrio species on feed surfaces.
Strengthening Gut Protection
MultiBio Edge also supports immune response and cytoprotection against pathogens in the gut, helping build a stronger digestive foundation for healthier, more resilient animals. Testing demonstrated that MultiBio Edge dramatically reduced cytotoxicity caused by V. parahaemolyticus, helping protect intestinal cells. Bacterial genetic profiling also showed changes in the composition of the shrimp gut microbiome, including a lower signal for a marker associated with V. parahaemolyticus.
“Our customers are looking for solutions that can help farmers get more from their feed programs and ultimately improve production performance,” said Joe Slone, Vice President of Water and Environmental Technologies. “MultiBio Edge addresses those needs across several fronts, from feed attractability and digestion to gut health, giving feed manufacturers a compelling new tool to help their customers achieve stronger results.”
MultiBio Edge is available in 25 kg (55 lb.) bags.
