Mechanism of action
Tributyrin is lipidated by butyric acid and glycerol. It does not decompose in gastric juice. It is slowly released into butyric acid and glycerin under the action of pancreatic lipase, repairs small intestinal villi, inhibits harmful bacteria in the intestine, and promotes the absorption and utilization of nutrients . Tributyrin is used on young animals to reduce post-weaning diarrhea, reduce weaning stress, increase survival rate and daily weight gain.
Main feature:
The main characteristics of butyric acid glyceride in animal husbandry applications are:
1. Full stomach-100% stomach;
2. Prevent enteritis-prevent nutritional diarrhea and proliferative ileitis in the colon;
3. Protect mucosa-foregut, Uniform absorption at three points in the midgut and hindgut, effectively repairing intestinal mucosal damage, and comprehensively protecting the intestinal mucosa;
4. Lactation promotion—improving sow feed intake, promoting sow lactation and improving breast milk quality;
5. Fast energy supply—for the intestine Mucosal cells quickly provide energy and promote the rapid growth and development of the intestinal mucosa;
6. Long and tidy—promote feed intake of weaned piglets, improve nutrient absorption, and significantly improve the tidiness of the pig herd.
Main uses:
Mainly used in canned pets, animal feed, aquatic feed, vitamin feed, veterinary drug products, etc.
The main purposes of butyric acid glycerides in animal husbandry are:
1. Provide energy source of intestinal mucosal cells, promote the proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells, increase the height of intestinal villi, and promote nutrient absorption;
2. Increase the intestine by promoting the expression of tight junction proteins Tract barrier function;
3. Promote the proliferation of beneficial intestinal microorganisms (such as lactic acid bacteria);
4. Release slowly in the intestine and reach the hind intestine. Compared with sodium butyrate, the speed can increase the effectiveness of butyric acid by 3 times;
5. Improve Animal body disease resistance, anti-stress ability, alleviate various stress losses;
6. Improve animal production performance, as a substitute for antibiotic growth promoters.
