Diosmectite

Efficacy and Function

Montmorillonite has been widely used in medicine, feed, veterinary medicine, breeding and other fields, especially in animal husbandry, antidiarrhea, mold and bacteria removal, water purification, hemostasis and anti-inflammatory, stress resistance and other hot spots. Montmorillonite is a green, natural and environmentally friendly product without any toxic side effects.

Treatment of diarrhea and protection of gastrointestinal mucosa

The causes of diarrhea include bacterial diarrhea, viral diarrhea, parasitic diarrhea, non-infectious diarrhea, etc. Montmorillonite has a unique therapeutic effect on diarrhea caused by various reasons. Its mechanism of action is to have a strong adsorption, fixation and inhibition effect on pathogenic bacteria in the digestive tract, as well as the toxins and gases they produce, making them lose their pathogenicity, promoting the regeneration of damaged digestive tract mucosal epithelium, restoring the normal rhythm of intestinal peristalsis, maintaining intestinal transportation and absorption, and improving the immune function of the digestive tract. Montmorillonite powder produced by some pharmaceutical manufacturers or powder antidiarrhea drugs produced by veterinary drug manufacturers all achieve the desired effect through the function of montmorillonite in treating diarrhea.

Effect of adsorption and removal of mycotoxins

Montmorillonite is a natural layered silicate nanomaterial, each layer is only 1nm thick, the particles are small, and the specific surface area is huge. Each cubic millimeter (half a rice grain) can accommodate 300 billion particles. Each gram of powder can cover the digestive tract surface of 110 square meters of basketball court, which can enhance the role of mucosal barrier; coupled with the uneven charge characteristics of montmorillonite, the basic layer is negatively charged and the interlayer is positively charged, which makes montmorillonite have a strong electrostatic adsorption ability, which can adsorb and fix a variety of viruses, bacteria and their toxins, balance the normal flora, and improve the immune function of the digestive tract. Montmorillonite also has viscoplasticity, and the layers can slide open and extend in the digestive tract. The layers are not scattered and separated, thus forming a continuous protective film. Montmorillonite itself has extremely strong adsorption capacity and powerful mold and fungicide factors. It can effectively remove a variety of harmful mycotoxins in feed and the damage of toxins to animal bodies. It has extremely strong adsorption, fixation and inhibition effects on mycotoxins such as aflatoxin, ochratoxin, zearalenone toxin, vomitoxin, T2 toxin, etc. Therefore, montmorillonite is widely used as a high-quality mold removal agent.
