Product introduction

Mono-Dicalcium Phosphate (MDCP) is an important mineral feed additive used in animal nutrition. It serves as a rich source of calcium and phosphorus, essential nutrients for the growth and health of livestock and poultry. 

Overview of Mono-Dicalcium Phosphate (MDCP)

MDCP has the chemical formula CaHPO4·H2O. It is a hydrated form of calcium phosphate, typically appearing as a white or off-white powder. The compound is soluble in water, making it a bioavailable source of the minerals it provides.

Uses in Animal Feed

1. Calcium and Phosphorus Source: MDCP is primarily used to supplement animal feed with both calcium and phosphorus. These minerals are crucial for various physiological processes, including bone development, energy metabolism, and overall growth.

2. Bone Health: By supplying readily available calcium and phosphorus, MDCP supports proper bone mineralization, which is vital for the development and maintenance of skeletal structure in growing animals.

3. Enhanced Feed Efficiency: Supplementing with MDCP can improve feed conversion rates in livestock, leading to better growth and production performances, such as increased weight gain and milk yield in dairy cattle.

4. Balanced Nutrition: It helps ensure that the mineral requirements of animals are met, which can contribute to better overall health, reproductive performance, and productivity.

Safety and Regulations

Mono-Dicalcium Phosphate is generally regarded as safe (GRAS) for use in animal feed when utilized appropriately. It is well-accepted in many regulatory jurisdictions, provided that it is used in accordance with good animal feeding practices.

Conclusion

Mono-Dicalcium Phosphate is a vital mineral feed additive that plays an essential role in animal nutrition. By supplying key nutrients—calcium and phosphorus—MDCP supports the health, growth, and productivity of livestock and poultry, making it an important component in modern animal feed formulations.
