PROMOtION ARtICLe Sodium butyrate (Gustor BP70): The key to improved pig performance and bacterial control Gustor BP70 is a unique organic acid that contains sodium butyrate that enhances intestinal development, reduces colonisation and shedding of pathogenic bacteria, while enhancing physiological activities such as increased calcium absorption, water intake, with villi and crypt development. The intestinal epithelium serves as the fi rst line of defence against orally ingested bacteria, viruses, toxins and other toxic chemicals. It is important that the young animal is exposed from early age to natural products that enhance development of intestinal or gut epithelium to minimise gut colonisation with pathogenic bacteria. Organic acids (including butyrate) are products of benefi cial bacteria which act as a prebiotic, but also enhance villi and crypt development. It also serves as an energy source for the growth and development of all intestinal cells (enterocytes). The use of unprotected sodium butyrate as a feed additive is largely absorbed from the fore-gut, making it ineffective lower down in intestines. But, through innovation, Norel developed a sodium butyrate product Gustor BP70 that is partly protected by fats, so that 20% is absorbed in the fore-gut and the rest in hind-gut. This allows for the effects of the sodium butyrate to be well distributed throughout the gut. Effect of Gustor on pathogenic bacteria The organic acid part of Gustor penetrates the bacterial cell by diffusion and disrupts the internal energy balance inside the pathogenic bacterial cell, which eventually leads to its death. Pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella and Clostridium perfringens are susceptible to this activity, but benefi cial bacteria such as Lactobacillus, are not. The presence of butyric acid in the diet also results in reduced shedding of pathogenic bacteria and an increase of benefi cial bacteria. The liveability of the host animal is enhanced, improving profi tability. Figure 1: Effects of sodium butyrate (Gustor) on bacteria in the small intestine of piglets after weaning at 6,7kg live weight (duration of trial 30 days) Figure 2: Increase in lenght of intestinal villi from 550 µm to 630 µm with Gustor bp70 premix at 1kg/ton of feed Effect of Gustor on Intestinal morphology and physiology Sodium butyrate stimulates the growth of enterocytes by acting as the main source of energy. This increase in intestinal cell size and length enables the cell to increase its absorption capability of nutrients. Higher villi to crypt ratio translate into a greater digestive surface and better nutrient absorption. This will result in better feed utilisation and therefore a decrease in FCR. Sodium butyrate also increases pancreatic secretion by up to 25% and enhances activity of enzymes such as trypsin by up to 38%. This results in better protein utilisation. In the colon, Gustor BP 70 increases calcium, water and sodium uptake. Conclusion Sodium butyrate is more than just a replacement for antibiotic growth promoters (AGP), it controls the numbers of pathogenic bacteria that includes Clostridium perfringens and Salmonella. it also serves as a performance enhancer and physiology modulator in the gastrointestinal tract. Gustor BP 70 is uniquely formulated to allow adequate delivery of sodium butyrate throughout the gastro-intestinal tract. The benefi ts of using sodium butyrate includes the advancement of intestinal health by the reduction of pathogenic bacteria. It also increases Lactobacillus sp, results in improved digestibility and feed conversions due to improved villi length and crypt ratio and results in an increased secretion of pancreatic enzymes and calcium uptake in the colon.
