What is Monolaurin 80%?
Monolaurin (Glycerol Monolaurate) is a monoester formed from glycerol and lauric acid.2 It is naturally found in coconut oil and breast milk.3 Vetnova’s Monolaurin 80% is a powerful nutritional tool that works by disrupting the lipid membrane of enveloped viruses (such as Avian Influenza, NDV, and PRRS) and bacteria.
Unlike standard acidifiers, Monolaurin is pH-independent, meaning it remains active throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract.4 It serves as a vital alternative to antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs), helping producers maintain high health standards and productivity without the risk of bacterial resistance.
Applications of Monolaurin 80%
- Poultry Nutrition: effectively reduces the viral load of lipid-enveloped viruses (like Newcastle Disease and Infectious Bronchitis) and controls Gram-positive bacteria like Clostridium perfringens, reducing the incidence of Necrotic Enteritis.
- Swine Feed: Critical for piglet health, helping to control strep and staph infections and mitigating the impact of viral challenges during weaning.
- Aquaculture: enhances disease resistance against bacterial pathogens in fish and shrimp, improving survival rates in high-density farming.
- Feed Hygiene: Acts as a biosecurity tool within the feed itself, reducing the transmission of pathogens through the oral route.
Benefits of Monolaurin 80%
- Antiviral Action: uniquely capable of penetrating and dissolving the protective lipid coating of enveloped viruses, rendering them inactive.5
- Antibiotic Alternative: Offers a powerful tool for reducing antibiotic reliance, specifically against Gram-positive bacteria.6
- No Resistance: Pathogens cannot develop resistance to the physical membrane-disrupting mechanism of Monolaurin.7
- Gut Integrity: Reduces inflammation in the gut wall, leading to better nutrient absorption and drier litter.
- Systemic Immunity: Supports the animal’s overall immune system by lowering the pathogen load, allowing energy to be redirected toward growth.8
- pH Independent: Remains stable and effective throughout the digestive tract, unlike many organic acids that dissociate too early.
- Improves Performance: Results in better Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) and Average Daily Gain (ADG) by maintaining a healthy digestive environment.
