How does potassium diformate stand out among many antibiotic alternatives?

Today in breeding industry, the use of antibiotics can be reduced through the improvement of breeding management measures and the addition of some feed additives. Feed prices seem to be rising regularly every year, and more scientific, accurate and effective measures are needed to replace antibiotics. How does potassium diformate stand out among many antibiotic alternatives?


The reason why potassium diformate stands out among the anti-feed additives is because of the following aspects:

1. Extremely strong bactericidal and antibacterial effect, keeping the intestinal health of poultry and livestock

It is generally believed that the improvement of production performance after adding antibiotics to feed is related to the suppression of subclinical infections. The reason why potassium diformate has the growth-promoting effect of antibiotics is actually its strong killing effect on pathogenic bacteria in the intestinal tract. Its unique antimicrobial function is based on the combined effects of formic acid and formate. Ingested in the form of complete potassium diformate and passed through the acidic stomach, it reaches the neutral and alkaline back intestines, which is automatically decomposed into formic acid and formate. The non-dissociated formic acid passes through the cell wall of the bacteria to lower the pH in the cell, and the intracellular pH is close to 7. Organic acid enters the cell in one generation, destroying the enzyme action in the cell and the nutrient delivery system, preventing microorganisms from reproducing, leading to death, and playing a bacteriostatic and sterilizing function. The formate anion decomposes bacterial cell wall proteins outside the cell wall to play a bactericidal and antibacterial effect.


2. It has strong acidity and excellent slow-release effect

The development and research of potassium diformate in various countries have found that potassium diformate is not only highly acidic, but also slowly released in the digestive tract, has a high buffering capacity, and can avoid excessive fluctuations in the acidity of the animal's gastrointestinal tract.


3. Slow-release antifungal agents can better extend the storage time of feed

Mold infects the feed to cause feed mildew, which not only consumes the nutrients in the feed, but also reduces the quality of the feed and reduces the feed return. Moreover, after being eaten by livestock and poultry, it will cause diarrhea, enteritis, and breeding problems, and even cause death, which will seriously affect animal production. Therefore, antifungal agents and mycotoxin adsorbents have become the focus of animal husbandry research.


4. Potassium diformate can effectively improve the growth rate and survival rate of livestock

The content of potassium potassium diformate is high, about 27-28%. Potassium plays an important role in maintaining osmotic pressure, regulating acid-base balance, participating in energy metabolism, and maintaining normal neuromuscular function. Potassium diformate can effectively prevent piglet diarrhea, and can significantly increase the daily weight gain and feed conversion rate of pigs. Due to its special slow-release effect, the acidification effect is better than the commonly used compound acidifier, which can effectively improve the growth rate and survival rate of livestock.


There are more and more substitutes for antibiotics in the market, and the breeding patterns of different regions and different farmers are different, and the required substitutes for antibiotics are also very different. At present, potassium diformate is a safe, effective and reassuring product that can be used by farmers and feed mills. It can be flexibly blended in feed, making it easier to meet their own breeding needs.

What role will industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate manufacturers play in the future coating industry?

图片
The keyword in 2019 is environmental protection and safety. In 2020, environmental protection and safety hurricanes will be more violent. In the manufacturing industry, whether it's packaging, printing, furniture, shipping industry or the phosphate raw material manufacturing enterprises like Chongqing Chuandong Chemical Group that produce  industrial grade sodium hexametaphosphate , it's a good choice to withstand the environmental storm and the obvious environmental protection conditions of the enterprise itself. Take the paint industry for example, the current paint market can be found that although the domestic paint industry has achieved rapid development and formed a certain industry scale, but in the domestic high-end paint market, the domestic paint brands or enterprises are indeed few, and the domestic high-end paint market is still occupied by most of the market share of imported brands. In fact, all industries need to use coatings, and environmental protection coating

What is the use of calcium formate industrial grade in construction? The manufacturer tells you

  With the development of the city's economy, the construction of highways, bridges, tunnels, and civil construction projects will require stricter use of early strength agents. Especially in winter, in order to improve the construction period, the cement mortar needs to be raised as soon as possible and put into use.   Calcium formate industrial grade   is a good early strength agent. Although both calcium formate and calcium chloride are calcium salts, relatively speaking, the performance of calcium formate is more stable. Because the formic acid in calcium formate is a weak acid. The solution will be weakly alkaline during the hydrolysis in the aqueous solution. It can be widely used in mortar. Calcium formate industrial grade is now a newly developed low temperature early strength accelerator in China, which has been widely used in various construction cement mortars. The earliest known and used chlorine salt early strength agent in construction, but the chloride salt early str

The effect of calcium supplement with feed grade calcium formate is good when crops are short of calcium

  Is it true that crops also need calcium supplements? it is true. Crops are plants, like humans and animals, that need rich trace elements to help them grow. When crops are calcium-deficient, plant growth is hindered, and the internodes are shorter, so they are generally shorter than normal plants and have soft tissues. Since calcium has such a big effect, is it good to use   feed grade calcium formate   to supplement calcium? The meristems such as the apical buds, lateral buds, and root tips of crops with calcium-deficient plants first appear nutrient deficiency, which is perishable, the young leaves are curled and deformed, and the leaf edges begin to turn yellow and become necrotic. For example, calcium deficiency can cause leaf scorch disease in cabbage, cabbage and lettuce; tomato, pepper, watermelon, etc. have heart rot; apples have bitter pox and water heart disease. No matter how much is useless, the crops are short of calcium. If we want to achieve the actual effect, what sho
