Microbial functions in nutrition

Nutrition can do more than supply matter. It can carry biological function.

microXpace integrates defined microbial functions into nutrition, enabling them to act at the interface between the animal, its microbiome and its physiology.

Through these interactions, our technologies can influence microbial ecology and associated immune, digestive and metabolic responses—supporting animal health, resilience and performance.

The biological logic

Animals do not respond to nutrition in isolation.

Every nutritional input enters a living system formed by the animal, its microbiome and their continuous physiological interactions.

N

Nutrition enters a living ecosystem

Feed supplies matter and energy, but it also shapes the biological environment in which microorganisms, immune pathways and metabolism interact.

M

Microbial functions influence relationships

Microbial glycans, enzymes and other functional components can provide signals or transform molecules that influence how the wider system behaves.

Defined functions can produce system-level effects

A precisely selected microbial contribution can influence biological processes far beyond the amount of material delivered.

Microbial leverage

The capacity of a defined microbial function to generate effects that extend beyond its material contribution.

How our technologies work

From microbial function to system-level response

Our technologies deliver defined microbial functions through nutrition and enable them to act within the animal–microbiome system.

1

A defined microbial function

Each technology is built around a specific microbial function with a relevant biological role.

2

Delivery through nutrition

The function is introduced in a standardized, nutrition-compatible form.

3

Action at the animal–microbiome interface

It interacts with microbial ecology and connected immune, digestive or metabolic pathways.

4

A coordinated biological response

These interactions can support measurable health, resilience and performance outcomes.

The principle in action

One technological logic. Different microbial functions.

microXpace is not defined by one glycan, one bacterial strain or one animal species. Different functions are selected for different biological purposes.

Microbial glycan signalling

α-Gal technologies

A microbial glycan delivered through nutrition provides a biological signal connecting microbial ecology with immune resilience.

Microbial metabolic function

NutryX®

A BSH-related microbial function acts at the interface of bile-acid metabolism, intestinal microbial ecology and animal physiology.

How we build our technologies

From biological mechanism to nutrition-ready technology

Our development process connects biological discovery with formulation, validation and real-world application.

01

Identify a nutrition-relevant mechanism

We begin with a biological function capable of influencing microbial, immune, digestive or metabolic relationships.

02

Identify its natural microbial carrier

We select microorganisms that naturally carry or express the function of interest.

03

Transform the function into a usable technology

The microbial component is standardized and developed in a stable, safe and nutrition-compatible form.

04

Validate biological and functional outcomes

The technology is evaluated in relevant animal systems using measurable outcomes.

05

Prepare for formulation and scale

Quality, manufacturing, formulation and practical integration are considered throughout development.

What makes microXpace different

Mechanism-led. Function-specific. Designed for application.

Scientific depth and product development are integrated from the beginning.

1

Mechanism-led

We begin with a biological mechanism, not a generic microbial ingredient.

2

Function-specific

Each technology is developed around a defined microbial function and biological role.

3

Nutrition-integrated

Our technologies are designed to become part of practical animal-nutrition systems.

4

Validated in target animals

Evidence is generated in the species and biological contexts for which each technology is intended.

5

Designed for scale

Manufacturing, quality, standardization and formulation are incorporated from the outset.
