Yucca schidigera

Saponins and Glicocomponents

The active ingredients of our products are fundamentally the steroidal saponins and the glycocomponents. Both are found in the extract of the Yucca schidigera.

Steroidal saponins have the property of being tensoactive. They play an important role in the animal nutrition due to their strong surfactant power. When they become in contact with the membranes of the cells of the intestinal wall, they become permeable and permit a better absorption of the nutrients. The digestion and the utilization of food are vastly improved with the accelerated microbial activity in the intestinal flora.

The glycocomponents are molecular structures highly thermostable and have the property of binding the ammonia in the digestive tract and in the metabolic processes. This neutralizes the harmful effects of ammonia and converts it to another type of non- toxic nitrogenous compound. The conditions are improved so that the intestinal flora increments it’s degrading activity, giving a more complete digestion.

These components also diminish the ammonia, hydrogen sulfur, and other toxic gases emitted into the environment that are produced in the process of the degradation of animal excretion. This benefits the environmental conditions of the confinement units and brings better conditions for production and improved productive parameters.
