FOS

 

 

1. General Information

 

● Product Name: Fructo--Oligosaccharide (FOS)

● CAS No. [308066-66-2]

 

2. Functions:

 

● Regulating animal intestinal flora balance and making lactobacillus, bifido-bacterium and other beneficial bacteria proliferation.

● To activate the cellular immunity, humoral immunity and enhance the animal immune function.

● Adjust the micro ecosystem of animal, reduce the digestive system disease.

● Improve feed palatability, improve daily gain, reduce feed conversion ratio.

● Promote nutrient digestion and absorption, improve growth performance.

● Prevention and control of the sow constipation, increase the lactation of sow, increase the birth weight of suckling pig.

● To improve the environment of livestock and poultry houses, reduce the emission of ammonia.

 

3. Advantages:

 

● No resistance, no residue, no compatibility taboo and good security.

● Replacing part of feed antibiotic and promoting growth.

● Hard to be decomposed by stomach digestive enzymes and can not be affected animal stomach acid.

● Belong to the sugar material, excellent stability, resistant to 120°C high temperature.

● The thermal stability is higher than other sucrose. FOS are highly stable in the normal pH for feed (4.0-7.0).

 

4. Packing:

 

● 25kg bag, PE bag inside, 18MT loaded per 20’FCL.

 

5. Shelf life:

 

● 2 years from the production date. Stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area.

 

6. Applications:

 

● Application Effect

 

● Experiment for preventing sow constipation and increasing feed consumption.

 

FOS prevents and controls the sow constipation, the results show that the feeding time, the effect of prevention and treatment of constipation is remarkable, the cure rate is 50% above. A the same time, it improves the growth performance of sows significantly and the survival rate of piglet.

● The test for strengthening the poultry immune function.

 

Using the FOS as the feed additive to feed chicken, through testing and comparing chicken immune organ index and the content of serum globulin of the control group and experimental group, the result show that the use of FOS can improve the serum globulin content of chicken, promote the development of chicken spleen, delay the thymus and bursa of fabricius senescence, have the function to enhance the chicken’s immune function.
