Improving animal health and welfare through intestinal health is an emerging field of science, and Amlan International is at the forefront. Our innovative programs are focused solely on developing natural solutions that enhance the function of the intestinal environment and allow the animal’s own biological systems to naturally defend against harmful diseases.
Science and research are the foundation of our discovery process and our products are extensively tested in clinical trials and in-farm trials to prove their efficacy before they are introduced to producers.
As a result, leading producers worldwide trust our products to reduce the economic losses associated with diseases and improve the financial performance of their operations.
The gastrointestinal tract is home to more than 50 billion bacteria (a number greater than the total number of cells in the body). Pathogenic bacteria produce 2 types of powerful toxins that are responsible for much of the pathogenesis of bacterial-related enteritis. Amlan products control these toxins and reduce the damage they cause to the intestinal lining and function.
Clinical and subclinical economic losses caused by pathogenic bacteria are estimated to cost the global livestock industry more than $9 billion annually.
Our research draws upon a global team of specialists with expertise that spans veterinary and human medicine, animal husbandry and production science, as well as nutrition.
We work with many leading research institutions who specialize in poultry, swine, dairy, and aquaculture research science. Research of our products has been conducted globally by leading scientists at the USDA, Harvard University, Northwestern University, Southern Poultry Research, University of Missouri, Purdue University, Shandong University, Mahidol University and many others.
Safer food for animals means safer food for humans, and our natural solutions support the industry’s movement to alternative disease treatments.
Over 100 clinical trials conducted around the globe have demonstrated the efficacy of our diverse range of products. In fact, our biotoxin control product Calibrin-Z is the most extensively tested product in the industry.
Amlan’s Innovation Center for research and development is located in Vernon Hills, Illinois. Here, our teams and collaborators are dedicated to finding innovative solutions that help livestock producers fight devastating diseases in the most natural way possible.
