Applications
- It is commonly used as a source of zinc in animal feed to improve their health and growth. This mineral plays a crucial effect on animal growth and development, as it is essential for various physiological processes, including protein synthesis, immune function, and DNA synthesis.
- Another important function of zinc oxide in animal feed is aiding in digestion and nutrient absorption. Zinc plays a vital role in the synthesis and secretion of digestive enzymes and is necessary for the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.
- Zinc oxide helps restore the balance of gut microflora, which can become disrupted during periods of stress or illness. This can help prevent the onset of diarrhea, a common health issue in animals, and improve their overall health and well-being.
