CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - Jul 16, 2014) - Amlan International, a leading provider of gut health feed additives for livestock, will present its latest clinical results showing that Varium controls the harmful effects of necrotic enteritis in broilers at the 2014 Avian Immunology Research Meeting (AIRG) July 16-19 in Guelph, Canada.

Varium is a natural, non-antibiotic gut health solution developed to specifically meet producer challenges with necrotic enteritis in poultry. Studies proving the product's efficacy were conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Amlan International.
