Anta^®Catch

Anta^®Catch is a feed additive for endotoxin management in animal nutrition. It works through the three actions catch, seal and detoxify: it immobilises endotoxins in the gut, supports the integrity of the gut barrier, and provides phytogenic support for liver and detoxification function.

Anta^®Catch is suitable for poultry, swine, ruminants and aquaculture.

Endotoxins, also called lipopolysaccharides (LPS), are components of the cell walls of gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli. They occur naturally in the gut and are released as these bacteria grow and die. When the gut barrier is compromised, endotoxins can enter the bloodstream and place a burden on gut and liver health, performance and overall stability, particularly when animals are under stress.

Endotoxins come from gram-negative bacteria inside the animal, while mycotoxins are produced by moulds and usually enter the ration through contaminated feed. Endotoxins are therefore more closely linked to gut microbiota, stress and barrier function, whereas mycotoxins relate more to raw-material quality, storage and feed contamination. The two are managed with different products.

Anta^®Catch is built on a triple mode of action: catch, seal and detoxify. Inorganic binding materials with double activation immobilise endotoxins across a wide pH range, a prebiotic complex strengthens the gut barrier and helps keep endotoxins from entering the bloodstream, and micronised phytogenic components support liver function and detoxification.
Together, they act on endotoxin pressure at three points.

Anta^®Catch is suitable for poultry, swine, ruminants and aquaculture species such as fish and shrimp. The dosage depends on the species, the endotoxin risk and stress factors: 0.5 to 3.0 kg per tonne of feed for poultry and swine, 1.0 to 3.0 kg per tonne for aquaculture, and 20 to 80 g per head per day for ruminants.

Yes. Anta^®Catch and Anta^®Ferm MT 80 address different challenges and can be used in the same ration. Anta^®Catch supports the management of endotoxins released by gram-negative bacteria in the gut, while Anta^®Ferm MT 80 binds mycotoxins from contaminated feed.

Some mycotoxins can weaken the gut barrier, so addressing both together is a practical approach.
