How effective is potassium diformate feed additive, an alternative to feed antibiotics?

 Due to the problem of antibiotic residues or resistance, the use of antibiotics in the breeding industry has been banned or restricted. The purpose of finding antibiotic products in feed is to restore bacteria's sensitivity to antibiotics and protect human health. What is the effect of using more potassium diformate feed additive as an alternative to feed antibiotics today?


Previously, everyone believed that antibiotics as a growth promoter had brought great economic benefits to livestock production, but today, the growth-promoting mechanism of many antibiotics is unknown.


However, potassium diformate is a kind of feed additive with strong bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect, which can keep the healthy state of pigs; it has the effect of promoting the growth of antibiotics, which is actually used to kill the pathogenic bacteria in the intestine.


It passes through the acidic stomach and reaches the neutral and alkaline alkaline intestinal tract, that is, it is automatically decomposed into formic acid and formate. Non-dissociated formic acid passes through the cell wall of the bacteria, which causes the pH in the cell to drop. Intracellular p is close to 7, organic acid enters the cell, destroys the enzyme function and nutrient delivery system in the cell, prevents microorganisms from multiplying, causes death, and acts as a bacteriostatic and sterilizing function. Play bactericidal and bacteriostatic effects.


Potassium diformate feed additive also has the main function of improving the palatability of the feed, keeping the body healthy, and reducing dependence on antibiotics. 0.65% potassium diformate is equivalent to 0.44% formic acid, but the effect has been significantly better than 0.85% formic acid, which proves that the compound of formic acid and various types of formate such as potassium diformate is better than adding formic acid alone


It is especially suitable for weaned piglets. It can affect the proliferation of intestinal microorganisms, activate pepsinogen, increase the energy utilization of natural metabolites, improve the absorption of protein by animals, prevent diarrhea and diarrhea, and improve the survival rate and daily weight gain of piglets. When 1% of this product is added to the piglet diet, nitrogen excretion in feces and urine is reduced by 10%, crude protein utilization is increased by 4.34%, lysine utilization is increased by 2.8%, energy is 3.5% -4.7%, and phosphorus is 8% -9%, calcium 2% -3%, magnesium 3% -8%, zinc 9% -17%, copper 52% -60 %%, and manganese 6%. At the same time, feed grade potassium diformate also has anti-mold and fresh-keeping effect.
