Zinc Oxide

Introduction

Alzyne Feed grade zinc oxide is a vital dietary supplement commonly used in animal nutrition to enhance growth and overall health. It serves as an important source of zinc, an essential trace mineral that supports various physiological functions, including immune response, enzyme activity, and skin health. Incorporating feed grade zinc oxide into animal feed formulations helps ensure that livestock and poultry receive adequate zinc, particularly in growing phases or during times of stress. Its bioavailability and efficacy make it a preferred choice among livestock producers aiming to improve feed efficiency and animal performance.

Furthermore, using feed grade zinc oxide can help prevent zinc deficiency-related disorders, ultimately promoting better health and productivity in farm animals. As the demand for sustainable and responsible animal agriculture increases, feed grade zinc oxide plays a crucial role in supporting animal well-being while contributing to efficient food production systems.

Functions and Applications

Zinc oxide is generally used in the production of premixed feed, or directly added to finished feed as a general feed.

Application Features

1. Compared with other zinc sources, the cost of zinc oxide per unit of zinc is significantly lower, which is beneficial to the lower cost of feed additives. The added amount is equivalent to 44% of zinc sulfate monohydrate and 28% of zinc sulfate heptahydrate.

2. Zinc oxide is a dry powder zinc source, which has good stability in feed, does not contain water, does not agglomerate, does not change denaturation, and is convenient for feed processing and long-term storage. Little effect on vitamins in the feed.

3. Zinc oxide is used as the zinc source, which is easier to be absorbed by animals than other zinc sources, and the effect of zinc supplementation is good.
