  • Patent number: 10058568
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a composition and/or method may include a toxin binding system formulated for safe and effective mixture into various feed rations which are fed to monogastric and ruminant animals such as poultry, swine, cows, cattle, and fish, among others. The toxin binding system includes novel combinations of one or more of an organoclay, an activated hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate clay, and a synthetic hectorite clay. In some embodiments, the binding composition may include organoclay, bentonite, hectorite, Leonardite, and/or any combination thereof. The toxin binding complex may effectively bind mycotoxins, endotoxins and some pesticides in the animal's digestive system, preventing their absorption and the consequent damages to the animal. This binding action includes the T-2 toxin, which can start their damaging action in the animal's mouth, hence, offering protection from oral lesions.
