Achieving the "antibiotic ban" of feed, the green feed additive potassium diformate is promising

In each link of the whole animal breeding chain, it is necessary to reduce the chance of contact with the source of the disease and improve the autoimmunity. As a feed additive that can replace the role of antibiotics, potassium diformate plays an important role in the aquaculture field with the full-chain antibiotic reduction substitution technical regulations. Potassium diformate has a lot to do in the final realization of feed "antibiotic", breeding "reduced resistance", and product "no resistance".

The main contents of the withdrawal of pharmaceutical feed additives and the adjustment of management policies have three aspects:

First, all growth-promoting feed additives (except traditional Chinese medicines) were withdrawn, and varieties of anticoccidial feed additives were retained.

The second is to change the management methods of anticoccidial and traditional Chinese medicine feed additives, and no longer issue the approval number of "Veterinary Drug Addition", but change it to the approval number of "Veterinary Drug", which can be used in commercial feed and breeding processes.

The third is to revise product quality standards for varieties that have both growth promotion and epidemic prevention and control effects, delete the growth promotion effect, and retain only the epidemic prevention and control effect.

In order to allow farmers to smoothly pass a series of factors that appeared in the initial period of "Forbidden Resistance", it is necessary to accelerate green and safe alternative products. The feed-grade additive potassium diformate is a green and safe growth-promoting agent that can control the growth-promoting mechanism of antibiotics, and has the functions of conditioning the body, healthy stomach, and improving absorption.

Achieve seedlessness

Adding potassium diformate reduces the pathogenic bacteria in the feed and eliminates anti-nutritional factors through the pre-preparation technology of the feed. Improve feed quality, feed technology, and strictly prevent "disease from mouth". Potassium diformate instead of antibiotics is important not to produce drug resistance. The proportion of formate concentration in the edible tissue is very small and there will be no residue. Therefore, it is safe to add potassium diformate to animal products.

Anti-pathogen

By adopting measures such as precise nutrition, precise formula, and fine feeding, a balanced supply of nutrition is achieved. The use of a small branch structure in potassium diformate for disease resistance and nutrition strategies enhances the body's immunity, improves intestinal health, and improves the ability of animals to resist pathogenic bacteria. Animal intestines have a self-regulating function and can be in a relatively stable state. The PH value is generally maintained in the range of 6.5-7.5. Therefore, potassium diformate has little effect on bacteriostasis by lowering PH value in the intestine. Only when the organic acid enters the intestinal tract in an undissociated form can it have bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects.

Environmentally less pathogenic

Strengthen breeding environment control and manure management to provide a clean space environment for animal growth. Potassium diformate can promote the digestion and absorption of protein and energy by animals, and also improve the digestion and absorption of various trace components such as nitrogen and phosphorus. Moreover, the main components of potassium diformate, formic acid and potassium formate, are naturally present in nature and in the intestines of pigs, and finally metabolized and decomposed into CO₂ and water, with complete biodegradability.

Regulates the immune system

The important reason why potassium diformate is added to pig feed as a growth promoter is because of its safety and antibacterial effect, which are based on its simple and unique molecular structure. And 85% potassium dicarboxylate enters the small intestine in a complete form, releasing potassium ions can also improve the utilization of lysine. The unique antimicrobial function is based on the combined action of formic acid and formate. Carbonic formic acid is the most acidic per unit weight of organic acid, and has a strong antimicrobial effect.

Finally, it is necessary to form a consensus to build an industry consortium. Application effect in feed production and breeding practice, gradually establish and apply a full-chain antibiotic reduction substitution technical regulation in the breeding industry, promote and guide the application of the whole industry within the industry consortium, reasonably use potassium diformate to replace pharmaceutical feed additives to withdraw from the breeding industry impact.
