What acidifier problems can be solved by the feed additive calcium formate?

 Feed additives have a positive effect on the balance of rations and the promotion of livestock and poultry production and growth. It is very common to add acidulants in animal feed, especially in young age. But acidifiers also have many problems in the production and use of feed additives. What acidifier problems can the feed additive calcium formate solve?


1. The addition amount is not large. The calcium content of calcium formate is as high as 30%, and its addition amount is generally 0.6% to 1.5%.

2. Adding calcium formate will not be neutralized by the alkaline substances and bile in the feed and lose the acidification effect.

3. Adding calcium formate will not destroy the absorption of vitamins and mineral elements in the feed.

4. The absorption rate in the stomach is not fast, which can effectively inhibit the secretion of gastric acid and the normal development of gastric function.

5. The formic acid in calcium formate can pass through the stomach and reach the small intestine and duodenum without being digested. The retention rate in the small intestine reaches 85%. It can reach the small intestine, effectively lower the pH value in the small intestine, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria.

6. Calcium formate reduces the acidity of the diet in the piglet feed, and will not allow a lot of acidic substances to be absorbed by the digestive tract wall, and enter the blood to cause a decrease in pH and cause acidosis.

7. Calcium formate acts as an anti-mildew agent in the feed at first to prevent the feed from absorbing moisture and agglomerating or causing the feed to become damp, which will affect the pelleting speed and preservation of the feed.

8. Calcium formate is neutral organic calcium corrosion and will not corrode processing machinery, storage and transportation equipment.

9. The effect of calcium formate acidifier is stable, it is not easy to lose the acidification effect in the digestive tract, and can significantly reduce the pH value of the gastrointestinal tract, thereby effectively inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria.


With the prohibition of antibiotics in the feed industry, the research direction of acidifiers has also changed from reducing diarrhea to sterilizing and inhibiting bacteria and improving intestinal health. Acidifiers were first imported from Europe, but China is the cheapest country in the world to produce citric acid and phosphoric acid. The feed additive calcium formate is an acidifier that can be used as an alternative to antibiotics and has a broader development prospect.
