Calcium Formate
ALCFA Calcium Formate(Acidifier) Feed Grade
Introduction
Alzyne Calcium formate is an essential feed grade acidifier that plays a significant role in improving animal nutrition and overall health. It is widely used in livestock and poultry feeds due to its ability to lower the pH of the feed, which enhances nutrient absorption and supports beneficial gut bacteria.
This organic acid salt not only aids in the prevention of microbial growth but also helps in the reduction of harmful pathogens in animal diets. By incorporating calcium formate into feed formulations, farmers can achieve better feed efficiency and growth rates, leading to improved productivity. Additionally, its low toxicity profile makes it a safe choice for use in various animal species, ensuring their well-being while promoting optimal performance.
Overall, calcium formate represents a valuable tool in modern animal husbandry, contributing to sustainable farming practices and higher quality livestock products.

Functions and Applications
Alzyne Calcium formate is added to the feed, and a small amount of formic acid will be released in the animal body, which will reduce the pH value of the gastrointestinal tract and have a buffering effect, which is conducive to the stability of the pH value in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby inhibiting the reproduction of harmful bacteria and promoting the growth of beneficial microorganisms. For example, the growth of Lactobacillus can cover the intestinal mucosa without the invasion of toxins, so as to control and reduce the occurrence of diarrhea and dysentery related to bacteria. The dosage is generally 0.6-1.5%.
Calcium formate is used as an acidifying agent. Compared with citric acid, it will not deliquesce in the feed production process, has good fluidity, and has a neutral PH value, which will not cause equipment corrosion. It can prevent nutrients such as vitamins and amino acids from being Destruction is an ideal feed acidifier, which can completely replace citric acid, fumaric acid, etc.
