Functions and Effects
Vitamin A is an essential nutrient for animals. It plays a crucial role in maintaining normal vision, especially in low-light conditions.
It also helps in promoting the growth and development of animals, enhancing the immune system to improve disease resistance, and maintaining the normal function of epithelial tissues such as the skin and mucous membranes.
Adequate vitamin A supplementation in animal feed can prevent vitamin A deficiency-related diseases, ensuring the healthy growth and high-quality production of livestock and poultry.

Product Details
Frequently Asked Questions
1What is the primary application of this product?
Vitamin A Acetate Powder is specifically formulated for poultry, swine, and aquaculture feed to prevent vitamin A deficiency, support vision health, immune function, and reproductive performance. Its water-dispersible form ensures uniform mixing in both dry and liquid feed systems.
2How stable is this product under high-temperature pelleting?
Our microencapsulated technology ensures 85% retention after 90°C pelleting for 3 minutes. For prolonged high-heat exposure (>100°C), consider adding a protective antioxidant (e.g., ethoxyquin) at 0.1–0.2%.
3Can it be mixed with minerals or other vitamins?
Yes, but avoid direct contact with high levels of copper (>50 ppm) or strong oxidizing agents (e.g., potassium iodide). Always add Vitamin A after minerals in the mixing sequence.
4What are the recommended storage conditions for this Vitamin A product?
Store in a cool, dark, dry, and well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with toxic or harmful substances. Seal the packaging immediately after opening and use the product promptly to prevent moisture absorption.
5What are the compatibility risks with copper sulfate and choline chloride?
Copper sulfate (≥50 ppm) causes oxidative degradation of Vitamin A, which can be mitigated by limiting copper levels or adding antioxidants. Choline chloride releases moisture that causes clumping; thus, you should use dry carriers and mix them separately.
6What is the recommended dosage of this product for livestock and aquaculture?
The recommended dosage (in IU/kg feed) is: Swine: 1,300–4,000; Cattle: 2,000–4,000; Sheep: 1,500–2,400; Broilers: 2,700–8,000; Layers: 1,500–4,000; and Fish: 1,000–4,000. Always add according to Feed Additive Safety Guidelines or a nutritionist’s advice.
