BEX Aqua Control Liquid

BEX Aqua Control is a feed additive designed to protect shrimp, freshwater fish, and marine species. This advanced solution helps suppress the growth of opportunistic bacterial pathogens, including Vibrio spp. and Streptococcus spp., while also targeting fat-enveloped viruses such as Tilapia Lake Virus (TiLV). By supporting gut integrity and digestive function, BEX Aqua Control contributes to better aquaculture performance and lowers the need for preventive antibiotics.

In intensive aquaculture systems, stressors such as high stocking densities, temperature fluctuations, and poor water quality can disrupt the microbial balance in the digestive tract. As a result, opportunistic bacteria gain a foothold, often leading to subclinical infections, reduced feed efficiency, and compromised performance. Furthermore, viruses like TiLV and White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) increase disease pressure and mortality rates. With the global shift away from antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) due to resistance risks and regulatory restrictions, there is a growing demand for safe, effective strategies that support pathogen management in aquaculture.

BEX Aqua Control addresses this challenge with a synergistic blend of active compounds.  Short-chain α-monoglycerides disrupt Gram-negative bacteria, while medium-chain α-monoglycerides target Gram-positive bacteria and fat-enveloped viruses. The inclusion of short-chain triglycerides supports digestive function and helps strengthen the intestinal barrier, reducing inflammation. Additionally, a carefully selected phytogenic compound enhances antimicrobial activity across a broad range of pathogens. Together, these components reinforce pathogen management in aquaculture by fortifying gut health, suppressing pathogen growth, and improving resilience in shrimp, freshwater fish, and marine species, all while reducing the reliance on antibiotics.
