Banning resistance is how to use non-antibiotic potassium diformate to deal with microorganisms

 Since it was announced on July 1 to prohibit the addition of antibiotics for the purpose of promoting animal growth in feed, potassium diformate has been widely used. The effectiveness of potassium diformate is affected by its own function, the level of addition, the synergistic effect with other organic acids and additives, and the pH of the stomach contents that changes with the age of the animal. In fact, talking about banning resistance is how to use non-antibiotic potassium diformate to deal with microorganisms.

In the early stage of the ban, the potential substitutes for antibiotics that farmers and feed companies are looking for can be roughly divided into three categories. One type is probiotics and their nutrients, the second type is a blocking agent or anti-killing substance for pathogen adhesion, and the third type is a substance that enhances the host's immune function, all related to microorganisms.

First introduce the mechanism of probiotics' competitive rejection of pathogens. There are three main modes:

The first point is to grab territory and compete with the host intestinal mucosal structure to create a competitive advantage in space.

The second point is the nutrients required by competing microorganisms.

The third point is that microorganisms produce metabolites, such as organic acids, bacteriocins, and antimicrobial peptides. These metabolites can inhibit other bacteria.

From the perspective of the use of probiotics, these three models can build a dominant probiotic flora.

There are two main application effects of non-antibiotic potassium diformate:

1. Antibacterial, health care, improve survival rate.

2. Promote growth, increase yield, and improve feed conversion efficiency.

These are all indicators closely related to economic benefits. Potassium diformate is of great significance as a feed additive that can replace antibiotics. Air, feed, drinking water and clean environment are the key guarantees for non-resistant breeding.

In fact, there are still many products that can be replaced. Traditional Chinese medicine preparations and essential oils are various and have different effects. It is not the product, but the technology that is missing. Potassium diformate was listed as a substitute for anti-feed additives in Europe in 2001, so the technology is quite mature and the effect is more obvious.
