Potassium diformate can promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestine

Saying "sickness comes from the mouth" is not just the entire digestive system of humans, but also of animals. The health of the gastrointestinal tract is an important condition that determines the health of the entire body. Potassium diformate has similar growth-promoting effects as feed antibiotics, but the principle of action is completely different from feed antibiotics.

Feeding antibiotics "kill" all microorganisms indiscriminately, regardless of beneficial and harmful bacteria, killing them all, with great side effects. Potassium diformate competitively inhibits pathogenic bacteria by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestine, thereby inspiring the essential growth performance of animals. Therefore, the feed additive potassium diformate has the advantages of no toxic side effects, no residue, no drug resistance, no environmental pollution and low cost, and is an ideal substitute for antibiotics for feed.

What role does potassium diformate play in animal breeding?

In the pig industry, potassium diformate cannot be said to play a role. Because potassium diformate plays a key role in organic formic acid, followed by formate. It is known that formic acid is an organic acid, and a small molecular structure colonizes the inner wall of pig intestines. However, if you use formic acid directly, you have not found that potassium diformate is not only acidic, but also slowly released in the digestive tract. It has a high buffering capacity and can avoid excessive fluctuations in the acidity of the gastrointestinal tract of animals.

0.65% potassium diformate is equivalent to 0.44% formic acid, but the effect has been significantly better than 0.85% formic acid. Potassium diformate promotes the growth of pig intestinal villi more than direct use of formic acid, increases the internal surface area of the pig intestinal wall, facilitates the absorption of nutrients, and can also activate the immune organs of the animal body and improve immunity.

Potassium diformate decomposes into formic acid, formate and potassium after entering the gastrointestinal tract. Formic acid can assist in digesting feed. On the other hand, formate can lower the PH value of pigs' gastrointestinal tract. As an aerobic bacterium, it continuously consumes oxygen to create a good anaerobic environment for anaerobic bacteria such as lactic acid bacteria in the lower digestive tract, which indirectly enhances the effect of promoting growth. Improve the animal's resistance to disease and reduce the number of deaths caused by bacterial infections.

There are actually many types of feed additives that replace antibiotics. Potassium diformate is put into the field of animal breeding with high-quality and safe feed growth promoters to replace the use of feed antibiotics.
