Butiphorce for Aquaculture
Targeted nutritional support for digestive tract integrity
Butiphorce is a target‑release butyric acid source developed to support a healthy epithelial wall in the digestive tract of aquatic species.
A well‑functioning digestive tract plays a key role in nutrient digestion, feed conversion and growth performance in aquaculture production systems.
Butyric acid has been shown in multiple species to positively influence digestive tract cells, tight junction assembly and immune function.
Butiphorce is formulated as an easy‑to‑use, non‑smelling powder, designed for gradual release of butyric acid throughout the digestive tract.
Why Gut Health Matters in Aquaculture
In aquaculture, the digestive system is a key organ for achieving high animal performance.
Disruptions to epithelial integrity and digestion can negatively affect feed utilisation, growth consistency and robustness, particularly under intensive production conditions.
Targeted nutritional strategies using butyric acid sources are commonly applied to support digestive tract integrity, efficient nutrient utilisation and overall performance in fish and shrimp.
Take the Next Step in Gut Health Support
Based on controlled evaluations and field‑relevant experience, Butiphorce is positioned to support:
Maintenance of digestive tract integrity
Improved feed conversion ratios
Consistent growth performance
Observed results depend on species, production system, feed formulation, health status and environmental conditions.
Approved Species
Butiphorce is approved for use in multiple species, including:
