FIXAT
FIXAT® – Feed Additive
for the Deactivation of Aflatoxins
FIXAT® is a selected Aluminosilicate with a
high binding characteristics for Aflatoxins.
Problem definition
The following characteristics point out
a fungoid infection of feed or grain:
- A musty, earthy or piercing smell
- Discolorings (in case of fusarii: orange
to grey)
- Formation of bridges and lumps
- Infestation of insects
An infestation of grain with fungi doesn’t
always mean that mycotoxins are formed.
A laboratory specialized in mycotoxin
analyses will determine whether seeds or
mixed feed are contaminated.
Problem solution
Depending on the concentration of
toxins present in the feed or the severity
of the existing symptoms, FIXAT® are added to the feed
in the recommended quantity.
It is important that the adsorbent is
mixed into the feed homogeneously.
FIXAT® protect
pigs, poultry, cattle and horses from:
- Feed refusal
- Vomiting / diarrhea
- Decreased performance
- Suppression of the immune system
- Reproductive disorders
- Damaging of organs
It is a proven fact
that FIXAT® do not
have any negative
effects on the animal’s
supply of
vitamins and trace
elements.
 
The results presented
in the chart show that
the various mycotoxins
in the feed and
especially under the
acidic conditions in
the stomach are effectively
fixed to the special
adsorbent TOXISORB®.
This binding remains
effective even in the
further course of the
digestive system when
the pH-value changes
from 3 to 7”.
FIXAT® is an effective
Adsorbent for Aflatoxins
only.
Your Profit is Assured with
FIXAT®
Once the no-effect-levels of the various
mycotoxins are exceeded, feed consumption
and performance parameters quickly
decline by 10 to 30 %.
The monetary losses caused by this
condition amount to a fraction of the cost
incurred by adding FIXAT® to the feed.
If corresponding
counteractions are not
taken, substantial
monetary losses will
be the consequence of
feeding diets contaminated
with mycotoxins.
Adding FIXAT® to
the feed will prevent
you from suffering such
losses and protect your
animals from any harm.
An expense that will
definitely be worth it.
Recommended Dosage FIXAT®:
The recommended dosages for all kinds of
animals depend on the concentration of
mycotoxins in the feed as well as the severity
of the symptoms and are as follows:
Low content of Mycotoxins / preventive: 2 kg / to of feed
Increased content of Mycotoxins: 3 kg / to of feed
Acute symptoms in animals: 4 kg / to of feed
