Selenium, a trace element commonly found in nature in the form of inorganic chemical selenium, plays an indispensable role in human and animal health. With the deepening of scientific research, the efficacy of selenium in antioxidant, improving immunity and preventing tumors has gradually been recognized. In the field of animal husbandry, yeast selenium as an efficient and safe selenium source, is increasingly concerned and applied by the breeding industry, Luoyang Hope Biology with years of research and exploration of feed additives, the application of yeast selenium in animal husbandry has a unique insight.
Yeast selenium is a biotransformation product that enables yeast to convert inorganic selenium into organic selenium in cells through microbial industrial technology. Compared with inorganic selenium, yeast selenium has higher bioavailability and better safety profile. This is because yeast selenium can be directly absorbed and utilized in living organisms, avoiding the potential toxicity of inorganic selenium to animal organisms. At the same time, yeast selenium also has multiple effects such as promoting animal growth, improving feed conversion rate, and enhancing immunity.
In animal husbandry, yeast selenium is mainly used as a feed additive to meet the nutritional needs of animals. By adding an appropriate amount of yeast selenium to the feed, it can effectively prevent various diseases caused by selenium deficiency in animals. At the same time, yeast selenium can also improve the immunity of animals, reduce the occurrence of diseases, and improve the growth rate and meat quality of animals.
The fermentation process of yeast selenium is a key link in ensuring its quality and effectiveness. This process involves many aspects such as strain selection, culture medium design, and fermentation condition control. In the selection of strains, strains with fast growth rate, strong selenium-rich ability, high tolerance, high safety and good genetic stability should be selected. The design of the culture medium needs to consider the reasonable combination of nutrients such as carbon source, nitrogen source, mineral elements and vitamins to meet the growth and selenium enrichment needs of yeast.
As an organic selenium source, yeast selenium has a higher safety profile compared with inorganic selenium. This is because yeast selenium can be gradually released and absorbed in the organism, avoiding the toxicity caused by excessive accumulation of inorganic selenium in the animal. In addition, the production process of yeast selenium also meets the requirements of environmental protection and reduces environmental pollution.
As an ideal feed additive, yeast selenium has a broad application prospect in the field of animal husbandry. With the in-depth understanding of the nutritional role of selenium and the continuous optimization of yeast selenium fermentation process, yeast selenium will become an indispensable and important nutrient element in animal husbandry in the future.
