Guanidinoacetic acid dosage in feed

Guanidine acetic acid and its derivatives are functional promoters, which are widely used in all kinds of livestock and poultry, so what is the dosage of guanidine acetic acid in feed?

What is guanidine acetic acid?

The appearance of guanidine acetic acid is white or yellowish powder, is a functional accelerant, does not contain any prohibited drugs, the mechanism of action of guanidine acetic acid is the precursor of creatine. Phosphocreatine, which contains high phosphate group transfer potential energy, exists widely in muscle and nerve tissue, and is the main energy supply in animal muscle tissue.

Second, the dosage of guanidine acetic acid in feed.

The amount of guanidinacetic acid in different livestock and poultry feed is also different: 500-600g/ tons for piglets, 400-500g/ tons for medium and large pigs, 300-400g/ tons for beef cattle, 300-400g/ tons for poultry and 500-600g/ tons for fish and shrimp. You can refer to the instruction manual of guanidine acetic acid or consult the seller.

What are the uses of guanidine acetic acid?

1. It can promote the growth of livestock, poultry, fish and shrimp: guanidine acetic acid is the precursor of creatine, which can promote more energy distribution to the synthesis of muscle tissue. The weight gain of livestock and poultry increased by more than 7%, and the growth rate of fish and shrimp increased by 8%. When guanidine acetic acid was used in the 50-100kg stage, the ratio of meat to feed was reduced by 0.2. the pigs were fattened 7-10 days ahead of time, and each pig saved more than 15kg of feed.

2. It can improve the reproductive performance of breeding pigs: provide sufficient energy for the gonads and enhance the number and motility of sperm in semen.

3. Improve the body shape of animals: phosphocreatine exists only in muscle and nerve tissue, and there is little content in adipose tissue, so it can promote the transfer of energy to muscle tissue, especially for lean pigs, with wide back and plump buttocks.
