The driving force behind animal health - nutritional supplements and medication
Raising healthy animals for delicious meals is a challenging task that requires careful attention. In traditional animal farming, it becomes necessary to supplement animal feed with nutrients to bolster their immune systems, minimize the risk of illnesses and mortality, and enhance productivity and growth rates. This, in turn, increases overall production efficiency. In the event of animals falling ill, timely administration of medication can aid in their recovery. Alternatively, the utilization of natural herbal remedies can eliminate the residues associated with conventional chemical drugs, thereby safeguarding human food safety.
"Lactozyme Biotechnology" the leading brand of "probiotics" in animal feed
Founded by Dr. Shih Tsung-Hsiung and his family, Lactozyme Biotechnology is a renowned company with extensive experience in academic research and strong collaborations with research institutions. They have developed a range of probiotic-based "feed additives" suitable for livestock, aquaculture, and pets. Among their notable offerings is "Probiotic Plus," featuring three active probiotic strains: Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Bacillus licheniformis. These strains effectively inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, establish a beneficial microbial population in animal intestines, improve digestion, prevent abnormal fermentation, reduce fecal odor, and enhance animal immunity. Consequently, animals fed with these additives experience improved health, fewer diseases, and reduced medication expenses. Lactozyme Biotechnology has consistently been a leading brand in Taiwan's homogeneous product market, continuously innovating and enhancing the quality of their products over the years.
In addition to their probiotic-based feed additives, Lactozyme Biotechnology is committed to promoting a "Green and Eco-friendly" product line. This line focuses on the conversion of livestock waste, urban sludge, and other materials into microbial organic fertilizers and related products. By recycling and utilizing these waste materials, they are effectively transformed into nitrogen-reducing cycles. This approach helps prevent secondary pollution and enables efficient resource utilization. Through this process, waste is turned into valuable resources, fostering a circular economy, conserving energy, reducing carbon emissions, and making a significant contribution to environmental protection.
Eubiotics aims to become a technological pioneer through the technology transfer of "Phytogenics"
Eubiotics, drawing from Academia Sinica's expertise, focuses on "Phytogenics Technology" through scientific research and product development. They utilize natural edible herbal molecules and TGAP-cultivated medicinal plants, conducting field trials for efficacy and safety. These trials lead to optimized formulas for animal feed or drinking water, regulating the intestinal microbiota and serving as alternatives to chemical drugs or antibiotics. This embodies the principles of a "green pharmacy." Eubiotics' product, "Gut Wellness," received the 2nd National Agricultural Science Research Award, and the company aims to be a pioneer in the field of "Phytogenics" technology.
Eubiotics upholds stringent manufacturing standards in GMP-certified facilities, subjecting their products to rigorous third-party certification. With inspections for pesticides, heavy metals, and veterinary drugs, their offerings guarantee non-toxicity, stability, and exceptional efficacy. These unmatched animal medications and feed additives facilitate antibiotic-free cultivation in the feed industry, aquaculture, and livestock farming sectors. This unwavering commitment ensures the preservation of animal health and the delivery of safe, high-quality products to consumers.
