Hemicell™️ (β-mannanase)
Hemicell is a diet additive for poultry that maximizes the energy available for growth and performance.
Why Choose Hemicell?
Hemicell is safe to use with other enzyme products.
The value of Hemicell increases in diets that have high β-mannans content.
Starts working immediately after ingestion to maximize performance.
Hemicell is a highly specific, patented enzyme for poultry diets. It helps maximize flock performance by mitigating an immune response caused by β-mannans, found in feed ingredients like soybean meal.1-7
