Product Description

What is Yucca Extract？

Yucca, agave family yucca plant, through extraction, concentration, spray drying to obtain yucca extract, rich in yucca saponins, polyphenols, polysaccharides and other effective substances. It is a feed additive approved by the United States FDA as GRAS(Food safety certification), according to statistics, at present, 16% of the annual feed in the United States are contains yucca extract.

Yucca schidigera is an herbaceous plant of lily family, native to the deserts of the southwestern United State and northern Mexico. It contains two active compounds: at least 10.5% steroidal saponins and polyphenols. Saponins are similarly in structure to Glucocorticoids in animals.

Previously It was thought that the Yucca extract could bind ammonia and therefore reduce its emission from pets and other animals. However, ammonia concentrations in the gut are at least 100-fold greater than the concentrations of the yucca extract. Currently it is believed that the high circulating levels of Glucocorticoid in response to various oxidative stress including heat stress result in enhanced degradation of amino acids to generate ammonia and reduced protein synthesis in skeleton muscle.

Yucca Extract Active Ingredient:

Saponin: Inhibit the activity of urease in the body and improve the immune function of the animals.

Polysaccharides: Polysaccharides have a very strong affinity with ammonia, can combine with ammonia, inhibit the harm of ammonia, and convert ammonia into harmless of nitrogen compounds are utilized by the body.

Polyphenols: have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and promote the conversion of ammonia into microbial proteins by microorganisms.

Yucca Extract Function

• Improve intestinal health and make the absorption of nutrients smoother.
• Reduce the concentration of ammonia in the intestine and blood, and reduce the harm of animal sub-health
• Maintain the acid-base balance in the intestinal tract, which is beneficial to the balance of intestinal flora, ensures the activity of digestive enzymes, and improves the utilization rate of feed.
• Improve the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood and reduce the occurrence of stillbirth and poultry ascites during pig delivery.
• Kill protozoa, bacteriostatic and antiviral effects.
• It can be used as an immune adjuvant to improve animal immunity.
• Improve meat quality and animal product quality.
• Yucca extract can be used for environmental deodorization.

Yucca Extract Applications

Yucca extract, derived from the Yucca schidigera plant, has diverse applications. It’s used as a natural surfactant in agriculture, enhancing water and nutrient absorption in soil and reducing plant stress. In animal feed, it helps reduce ammonia and fecal odors. It also finds use in beverages as a foaming and flavoring agent, and in cosmetics for its potential skin-soothing and hair-strengthening properties. Additionally, research explores its potential benefits in drug synthesis and as a phytogenic feed additive in aquaculture.

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

1、In Agriculture and Horticulture:

• Soil Health and Nutrient Uptake:

Yucca extract acts as a natural surfactant, improving soil structure, water penetration, and nutrient absorption by plants. This leads to healthier, more productive plants.

• Reduced Plant Stress:

It can help plants cope with drought, heat, and salinity stress by improving water retention in the soil.

• Organic Farming:

Yucca extract is a biodegradable and safe option for organic farming systems, promoting sustainable agriculture.

• Hydroponics:

It can be used in hydroponic systems to improve nutrient delivery and water absorption by roots.

2、In Animal Husbandry:

• Odor Control:

Yucca extract is a common feed additive for livestock due to its ability to reduce ammonia and fecal odors in animal excreta.

Improved Gut Health:

Saponins in yucca extract can have antibacterial and antiprotozoal effects, potentially improving gut health and reducing ruminal ammonia concentrations.

• Enhanced Feed Efficiency:

Some studies suggest it may improve nutrient digestibility and even reduce neonatal pig mortality when fed to sows.

3、Aquaculture:

Yucca extract may be beneficial in aquaculture by reducing ammonia and nitrate concentrations in water and potentially improving water quality.

4、Cosmetics:

It can be found in cosmetic formulations for its potential skin-soothing, moisturizing, and hair-strengthening properties.
