Application of magnesium sulfate in feed additives

Magnesium sulfate is mainly used as a feed additive and used as a magnesium supplement in feed processing. Magnesium is an indispensable factor in the process of osteogenesis and muscle contraction in livestock and poultry. It is an activator of various enzymes in livestock and poultry, and also an important role of material metabolism and nerve function in livestock and poultry. Animal magnesium deficiency, growth block, nerve tension, muscle tremor, spasm, anorexia, muscle convulsions, convulsions, and even coma and death. The newly hatched chicken ate a magnesium-free feed every day and died a few days later. If fed with low magnesium, it will grow slowly, be easily frightened and lose consciousness; when laying hens lack magnesium, egg laying rate decreases, egg weight and eggshell weight are reduced. Severe cases will gradually numb and even die. When fish lack magnesium, growth is blocked and trout bone deformation. When ruminants lack magnesium, nerve tension, muscle trembling, slow breathing, rapid heartbeat, facial convulsions and spasm, until death. Excessive magnesium can poison animals, leading to diarrhea, motor disorders, lethargy, and even death in severe cases. When laying hens eat too much magnesium, the laying rate decreases and the eggshell becomes thinner.
