CLOSTAT™ for GUT Health

Intestinal health issues in poultry and livestock are of constant concern to producers around the world. CLOSTAT™ is a patented direct-fed microbial that supports intestinal health by maintaining a balanced microbiota. It has been proven to help develop a natural defense mechanism against Clostridium perfringens.

The Science Behind Kemin Gut Health Solutions

We isolated an active microbial from the intestinal tract of healthy chickens to develop a unique strain of Bacillus subtilis, PB6.

CLOSTAT™ produces lipopeptides (surfactants) in the gastrointestinal tract that have inhibitory activity against pathogenic strains of Clostridium perfringens. These surfactants also have efficient anti-inflammatory properties.

CLOSTAT™ is not species specific, meaning that it can be used in all animal species. In Asia, CLOSTAT™ is generally registered for poultry and swine.

Features of CLOSTAT™

• Stable in feed and premixes
• Heat stable upon pelleting
• Compatible with nearly all organic acids
• Compatible with nearly all anticoccidials

Benefits of Using CLOSTAT™

• Production of surfactin with specific activity against pathogenic strains of Clostridium perfringens
• Prevention of necrotic enteritis, bacterial enteritis, and maintenance of a balanced microbiota
• Production of flocks and livestock in an environment with reduced antibiotic use
• Reduction in medication application due to improved gut health management
• Improved profitability through reduced mortalities, improved litter quality and performance, and reduced rejections at slaughterhouse

CLOSTAT™ is an active microbial effective against pathogenic strains of Clostridium perfringens, which serves as a natural solution for the responsible use of antibiotics.

CLOSTAT™ is compatible with common feed additives and most coccidiostats used in the feed industry and is heat stable under normal commercial pelleting conditions.
