BINDOMAX™ Multi-Component Mycotoxin Binder
BINDOMAX™ combines a chemically modified, micronized mineral, yeast cell wall, humic acid, plant extracts and organic acid salts. Each one has a defined job, so the binder can adsorb a broad range of mycotoxins and support the liver and kidneys in poultry and dairy cattle.

Feed grains such as corn and soybean meal can carry several mycotoxins at once, and warm, humid handling and storage make it worse. Each toxin behaves differently in the gut:
- Aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2): B1 is the most toxic and carcinogenic of the family.
- Ochratoxin A: damages the kidneys and reduces performance.
- Zearalenone: disrupts hormones and fertility.
- Deoxynivalenol: cuts feed intake and damages the gut lining.
No single ingredient covers all of them. Aflatoxin B1 binds to minerals through the aluminum in their structure, while yeast cell wall works through a different mechanism altogether. BINDOMAX™ was designed around that fact.
Three Layers. One Binder.
Prevent mold growth in the feed.
Bind the toxins in the gut.
Protect the liver and kidneys.
| Layer | Components | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Before: in the feed | Propionic and formic acid salts | Lower feed pH and slow the growth of molds and harmful bacteria |
| During: crop and proventriculus | Processed mineral, yeast cell wall | Acidic mineral surface binds polar toxins; long-chain surfactant groups bind non-polar toxins |
| During: small intestine | Yeast cell wall, humic acid | Keep adsorption going where the mineral is less effective at near-neutral pH |
| After: liver and kidney | Milk thistle and artichoke extracts | Neutralize free radicals from any toxin that is absorbed |
Who binds what?
| Mycotoxin | Main components | Main mechanism |
|---|---|---|
| Aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2 | Processed mineral (surfactant) and yeast cell wall | Van der Waals and hydrophobic interaction |
| Ochratoxin A | Processed mineral (acid-activated surface) and humic acid | Hydrogen bonding and ion exchange |
| Zearalenone | Humic acid and processed mineral | Electrostatic attraction and hydrogen bonding |
| Deoxynivalenol | Yeast cell wall and humic acid | Physical surface adsorption |
Why does processing matter?
A mineral binder is only as good as its processing. The BINDOMAX™ mineral goes through a gentle, controlled pre-heating step, then acid activation, then surfactant functionalization. The pre-heating stays below the temperature range where bentonite begins to lose its layered structure, so the structure that carries the adsorption capacity stays intact. Acid activation raises the surface area and the number of active sites, and the surfactant groups extend the binding to non-polar toxins.
More ingredients is not the point. Coverage is.
Every component in BINDOMAX™ was screened in the laboratory and kept because it fills a specific gap. A longer ingredient list can add cost and compete for the same binding sites. A smarter one gives each layer of protection a clear role.
Mycotoxin Binders to Benefit Broilers
In a 42-day university trial, 240 Ross 308 male chicks were fed 500 µg/kg aflatoxin B1. At 1.5 g of BINDOMAX™ per kg of feed, compared with the toxin-only group [2]:
Mycotoxin Binders to Benefit Dairy Cows
In a 7-week field trial with 180 high-producing Holstein cows, 30 g of BINDOMAX™ per cow per day was compared with a reference toxin binder fed at the same rate [3]. The BINDOMAX™ group showed:

Tighter feed safety rules. Higher expectations from every buyer. Feed that has to carry more risk than ever. BINDOMAX™ is the result of a two-phase research program of more than two years, run with the Iranian Research Institute of Food Science and Technology and Ferdowsi University of Mashhad.
Its adsorption results were published in Scientific Reports in 2025 and repeated in an independent laboratory, which confirmed aflatoxin adsorption above 90% [1].
BINDOMAX™ Mycotoxin Binder
A multi-component binder for poultry and dairy feed. Combines a processed mineral, yeast cell wall, humic acid, plant extracts and organic acid salts for layered mycotoxin control.
Recommended inclusion
| Application | Recommended inclusion |
|---|---|
| Poultry: low contamination risk | 0.75 kg per tonne of feed. Lowest proven dose; for continuous preventive use. |
| Poultry: moderate risk | 1.0 to 1.25 kg per tonne of feed |
| Poultry: high risk | 1.5 kg per tonne of feed. Highest dose tested; largest reduction in tissue residues. |
| High-producing dairy cows | 30 g per cow per day |
Feeding instructions: Add evenly at the feed mixing stage. For best distribution, first blend with part of the premix or carrier, then add to the full batch. Compatible with common feed additives. The poultry doses between 0.75 and 1.5 kg/t come from the broiler trial; the 1.0 to 1.25 kg/t range is interpolated between the two tested doses. Consult your regional nutritionist for final feeding levels.
BINDOMAX™ Research at a Glance
Laboratory: adsorption of seven mycotoxins
Simulated gastric and intestinal conditions, from the published phase-two study [1]. An independent laboratory (Amin Azma) repeated the aflatoxin tests and confirmed adsorption above 90% for all four aflatoxins.
Broilers: aflatoxin B1 challenge, 42 days
Ross 308 male broilers, 240 birds, 4 treatments × 5 replicates × 12 birds; 500 µg/kg aflatoxin B1 in the challenge groups [2].
| Measure | No toxin | Toxin only | +0.75 g/kg | +1.5 g/kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FCR, whole period | 1.92 | 2.34 | 2.19 | 2.05 |
| Relative liver weight (%) | 1.88 | 2.69 | 2.45 | 2.22 |
| Liver fat (%) | 9.84 | 14.42 | 12.33 | 11.87 |
| Liver aflatoxin B1 (ng/g) | n/a | 2.51 | 2.37 | 2.33 |
Mortality and production efficiency factor did not differ significantly between groups, which the authors attribute to the moderate challenge level.
