GOFOS™ P95 Animal Nutrition

GOFOS™ is a palatable soluble prebiotic non-digestible fiber consisting of about 95% of short chain fructo-oligosaccharides (sc-FOS). GOFOS™ is produced from beet sugar by a proprietary unique enzymatic process, leading to the formation of oligosaccharides content with fixed chain length of 3-5 units. Sc-FOS is naturally found in small amounts in various vegetables and fruits, promotes the growth and activity of beneficial animal gut microbiota, helps maintaining a healthy gut, improving immunity, and reducing potential pathogens occurrence.

Product Highlights
  • GOFOS™ is a prebiotic fiber that upgrades feed formulas to meet growers demand for increased productivity, healthier and cost-effective feed.
  • Prebiotics enhance balanced intestinal microbiota and stimulate immune defenses. sc-FOS is widely used in animal feed worldwide and scientifically recognized as one of the most efficient prebiotics.
  • Modern animal growers are constantly searching for ways to improve growth rates and productivity, enhance immunity, reduce antibiotics use, and increase survival rates.
  • GOFOS™ added to animal feed is a powerful tool to help meet these goals in poultry, swine, aquaculture, pre-ruminants as well as other farm animals.
  • GOFOS™ is a cost-effective prebiotic feed ingredient that improves animal gut health and enhances immunity. GOFOS™ reaches the colon intact (undigested without losses) and is fermented by beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus species.
