Fermentation Extract - Feed Ingredient

Fermentation extract refers to the dried or concentrated byproduct derived from the controlled microbial fermentation of a specific organism—typically bacteria, yeast, or fungi. Unlike direct-fed microbials that contain live organisms, fermentation extracts consist of inactivated microbial cells and the bioactive compounds they produced during fermentation, such as enzymes, organic acids, peptides, and other metabolites.

In equine nutrition, fermentation extracts are included for their functional properties, often to support digestive health, nutrient absorption, or microbial balance in the gut. However, specific effects can vary depending on the source organism and fermentation conditions

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Fermentation Extract as an ingredient.
