Can potassium diformate solve the problem of poultry and livestock diarrhea?

 As the cold air goes south and the temperature drops, many poultry and livestock in the north will begin to experience diarrhea after the beginning of winter. In the first winter after no resistance, various alternative anti-resistance programs ushered in a real test. Can potassium diformate solve the fundamental problem when the seasons are prone to stress reaction and diarrhea?


Potassium diformate is not only highly 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 animal's gastrointestinal tract.

1. Improving protein digestibility and reducing protein levels are the basis for preventing diarrhea

There must be a basic common sense: the fast-growing varieties cultivated by modern genetic breeding have higher protein requirements than our actual dietary protein levels. In the long run, we need to increase protein levels, not reduce protein levels.


High-protein diets with low digestibility will cause a large amount of undigested protein to enter the hindgut, leading to severe protein fermentation, which in turn leads to uncontrolled flora and intestinal metabolites. Formulators need to tap the digestive potential of the stomach itself. Only when the pre-digestive ability of the stomach is fully utilized can the digestive ability of the entire digestive system be fundamentally improved. The core of the stomach’s pre-digestibility is the acid secretion ability. The value of stomach content not only determines the activity of pepsin, but more importantly, it can greatly improve the denaturation of protein and the collapse of protein structure, thereby fundamentally improving the efficiency of protease action. The most important thing is the acidity, especially the choice and input of organic calcium and organic acids.


2. Strengthen the bactericidal function of the stomach to prevent

The stomach is the first line of defense for environmental microbes to enter the body. In the presence of antibiotics, the stomach's cleaning effect on environmental microbes is almost ignored.


After all, antibiotics can effectively kill most of the flora. Under the condition of non-resistant diets, not only should we pay attention to the insufficient gastric acid capacity but also the bactericidal function of the stomach. Therefore, in the selection of organic acids, it is necessary to increase the specific gravity of bacteriostatic acid. Potassium diformate can release two molecules of formic acid in the stomach. Not only can it effectively reduce the PH value of the stomach and ensure the pre-digestive function of the stomach, but it can also exert the efficient sterilization effect of formic acid, which greatly reduces the risk of environmental microorganisms entering the intestine.


3. The biggest challenge of non-antibiotic diets is that the main function of intestinal bacteriostatic antibiotics is bacteriostasis and sterilization, so what should be added for the antibacterial is a truly effective bacteriostasis.

There are many additives that can inhibit bacteria, but the in vitro inhibitory dose and the in vivo inhibitory dose (the actual additive dose in the diet) are two different things. Generally, the antibacterial dose in vivo is the antibacterial dose in vitro. Considering the actual amount added, there are very few additives that can effectively inhibit bacteria and kill bacteria in the intestinal tract.


Because the structure of the small intestine is relatively fragile, its mucus layer and villi epithelium are the weakest parts of the intestine. On the other hand, the rich nutrients in the small intestine can easily lead to the growth of bacteria, which in turn leads to severe inflammation. Bacteriostatic agents that enter the intestine can truly ensure the safety of the intestines. Bacteriostatic agents that cannot cross the stomach to reach the intestine can cause serious consequences.


Therefore, potassium diformate, a truly effective intestinal bacteriostatic agent, can effectively prevent diarrhea and diarrhea in poultry and livestock even if the in vitro inhibitory dose is only 1-1.5 g/L. It can significantly increase the daily gain and feed conversion rate of pigs. Due to its special slow-release effect, the acidification effect is better than the commonly used compound acidifiers.
