Application of Calcium Formate in Feed
Calcium formate is a commonly used feed additive, primarily supplied to animals in the form of an organic acid. Its applications in feed include:
Feed Preservation.Calcium formate has antibacterial and antifungal properties, which can inhibit the growth of mold and bacteria in feed, thereby extending the feed’s shelf life.
Feed AcidifierIt acts as an acidifier in feed, regulating the feed’s pH level. Moderately lowering the feed’s pH promotes the growth of beneficial gut bacteria in animals, improving their intestinal health.
