Applications

1. Piglets
Studies have shown that with the addition of 2.5 mg/kg folic acid, the piglet’s overall daily weight gain is significantly higher than that of the basal diet group, and the serum protein concentration, DNA, RNA and protein content in the liver are significantly increased, and the serum urea nitrogen concentration is extremely high. Significantly reduced.
2. Dairy cow
In the tissue metabolism of high-yield dairy cows, folic acid and choline can provide a one-carbon group for the body tissue of dairy cows for energy and protein metabolism, purine and DNA synthesis, thereby improving the production performance of dairy cows.
3. Broiler
The addition of folic acid can significantly increase the serum protein content of 21-day-old broilers, and the addition of 3.0mg/kg can also significantly increase the feed intake and average daily gain of broilers
