Propionic Acid

Feed Additive for Feed Production

Luprosil® products for animal nutrition

Luprosil® is pure propionic acid (99.5%), highly effective in the applications, but as a corrosive liquid it requires special safety measures for transport, storage, handling and use.

Lupro-Grain® is a partly buffered propionic acid product. Therefore, the product is just irritant, easier to handle, and has a reduced odor compared to pure propionic acid.

Luprosil® NC is a nearly completely neutralized propionic acid product with a pH value of 6.8, which is easier and more safe in handling properties, but requires higher dosages of product compared to Luprosil® (99.5%) or Lupro-Grain. Luprosil® NC is a non-corrosive product.

Applications of propionic acid in feed:
  • Preservation of compound feeds and raw materials for preventing nutrient losses and mycotoxin formation

Propionic acid has a pronounced antimicrobial action. It acts on mold, yeasts, and bacteria. The preservative effect of propionic acid derives from intervention in the carbohydrate metabolism and DNA synthesis of the microorganisms.
