Quick Answer: Monogastric gut health in pigs and poultry depends on a stable microbiota, intact intestinal barrier, and functional immune competence. The six main additive classes used to support this equilibrium are organic acids, probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, phytogenics, and exogenous enzymes. Each acts through a distinct mechanism — pH reduction, competitive exclusion, substrate fermentation, metabolite … <a href="https://www.safic-alcan.com/en-es/industry-articles/feed-additive-classes-monogastric-gut-health/">Continued</a>

Quick Answer: The animal nutrition industry is shifting away from antibiotic growth promoters toward feed additives that target gut microbiota directly. This change is driven by AMR regulations, growing evidence that intestinal health correlates with feed conversion efficiency and immune competence, and a market for prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, phytogenics, and organic acids expected to exceed $35 billion by … <a href="https://www.safic-alcan.com/en-es/industry-articles/gut-health-animal-nutrition/">Continued</a>

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) are two of the most widely used cellulose ethers in solid dosage form manufacturing. Both are semi-synthetic polymers derived from natural cellulose, both are listed in the major pharmacopeias, and both appear in hundreds of approved oral drug products worldwide. Yet they are not interchangeable. Their substitution chemistry, … <a href="https://www.safic-alcan.com/en-es/industry-articles/hpmc-hpc-choosing-right-cellulose/">Continued</a>
