Embodiment Construction

[0026] Applicants have shown that clay and clay blend products help alleviate necrotic enteritis in chickens caused by a bacterial toxin from Clostridium perfringens.

[0027] The present invention also relates to the use of clay and clay blend products as food supplements to improve growth and feeding efficiency.

[0028] A preferred embodiment of this product may be 100% Calibrin ® - Z, a calcium montmorillonite clay that has been heated to a moisture reducing temperature and ground to a fine particle size. This treatment, heating to between 400°C-800°C, and / or fine grinding (average particle size 32-36 µm), has been shown to increase the clay's toxin-binding capacity across a variety of fungal and bacterial toxins.

[0029] In addition to the preferred embodiment, other materials capable of binding toxins can also be substituted for Calibrin®-Z, such as other clays or adsorbent minerals, diatomaceous earth, silicates, or other processes, including increasing or decreasing ...

Abstract

Applicants have examined two Clostridium species, Clostridium difficile and Clostridium perfringens, and found that clays can adsorb the toxin produced by both and that a clay blended product can decrease the effects of a prominent in chickens and known as Necrotic Enteritis, that is caused by C. perfringens. Recently a clay or a clay blend that may be a combination of clay, yeast, and a form of a functional amino acid, was examined and found to help decrease the effects of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), which is also known as Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS) in shrimp when a challenge model that included Vibrio parahaemolyticus was used.
