For 5000 years, man has used secondary plant compounds in the form of
essential oils* as flavors and for antimicrobial properties.
CRINA® is designed to perform
Today’s trend towards the
replacement of in-feed antibiotic growth promoters to improve gut health has
driven pioneering research activities at CRINA®. Following extensive research,
a range of precisely formulated and consistent blends of essential oil
compounds of high purity, marketed under the CRINA® trademark, was developed.
Not only can essential oil compounds function individually, but they can also
act synergistically to enhance animal performance. CRINA® is part of the
Eubiotic product portfolio of DSM Nutritional Products.
In monogastric animals, CRINA® has shown to stimulate the production of
endogenous enzymes. Feed digestion is thus enhanced and less substrate is
available for gut fermentation. CRINA® has demonstrated to modulate positively
the micro-flora, resulting in a reduced risk of enteric disease.
In
ruminants CRINA® improves rumen fermentation, a key for animal productivity,
health and longevity.

The term ‘essential oils’ derives from the steam - volatile or organic solvent
extract - the essence of plants.
