Product Benefits

Sorbic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid that can be absorbed by the metabolic system in animals and rapidly decomposed into carbon dioxide and water, with no residue. As a feed antifungal agent, sorbic acid has inhibitory effects on molds, yeasts, and aerobic bacteria. Its antifungal mechanism is to bind with sulfhydryl groups in microbial enzyme systems, achieving antifungal effects by disrupting the enzyme system.. Sorbic acid can form a uniform organic acid protective film on the surface of feed, preventing molds from contacting the feed. When used in combination with propionic acid and others, it can enhance the antifungal effect. Suitable for antifungal preservation of pig, poultry, aquatic, and pet feed.。

High-efficiency mold inhibition

It has inhibitory effects on molds, yeasts, and aerobic bacteria, achieving antifungal effects by disrupting microbial enzyme systems. Its preservative effect is significantly superior to similar products such as sodium benzoate.。

Safe and low toxicity

As an unsaturated fatty acid, it can be metabolized into carbon dioxide and water in animals, with no residue. Its toxicity is only 1/2 that of table salt and 1/40 that of sodium benzoate, making it a GRAS safe substance.。

Freshness preservation and quality protection

It forms an organic acid protective film on the surface of feed, preventing molds from contacting the feed, preventing feed heating, caking, and nutrient loss, and protecting the original nutritional value of the feed.。

Synergistic effect through compounding

It is often used in combination with organic acids such as propionic acid to synergistically enhance the antifungal effect, suitable for various feed scenarios including pig, poultry, aquatic, and pet feed.。
