May 09 , 2024

Nicotinamide is not only a cosmetic ingredient, it is also vital for animal health. Nicotinamide is an amide compound of niacin. Nicotinamide and niacin are two components of vitamin B3, also known as vitamin PP. It is abundant in yeast, rice bran, wheat bran and meat. Nicotinamide can be synthesized from tryptophan in livestock, but when the amount of synthesis cannot meet the needs, it must be added from nicotinamide supplement.

Physical and chemical properties

Nicotinamide is an amide compound of niacin acid. Nicotinamide powder is usually crystalline; Odorless or almost odorless, bitter in taste, slightly moisture-inducing, soluble in water or ethanol, and soluble in glycerol.

Functional roles

1. Maintain the normal function of animal nervous system. Nicotinamide is an important component of NAD and NADP, which are important coenzymes in enzymatic reactions. Nerve cells need enough NAD to maintain the normal function of the nervous system.

2. Boost the metabolism of animals. Nicotinamide plays an important role in energy metabolism, it can promote the conversion of ATP, maintain energy supply, but also can accelerate protein and fatty acid metabolism, and improve the production performance of animals.

3. Improve animal immunity. The lack of nicotinamide is easy to cause desiccation and necrosis of skin tissue, and the ability of animal skin to infect microorganisms and other external pathogens is reduced, so the supplement of nicotinamide helps to improve the immunity of animals.

4. Promote the growth and development of animals. Nicotinamide can improve the utilization efficiency of animal feed and promote growth and development. Long-term lack of nicotinamide can lead to lower animal weight, reduced diet, and further affect the growth and development of animals.

Effect of nicotinamide on animal health

1. Lack of nicotinamide can cause skin diseases in animals. Lack of nicotinamide leads to dry skin, epidermal keratosis, a large number of skin adhesions, affecting skin ventilation and evaporative heat dissipation, resulting in skin diseases.

2. Lack of nicotinamide can cause digestive diseases in animals. Lack of nicotinamide will make the gastrointestinal mucosa shed, oxidation and acidification, thus affecting the digestive system function of animals, resulting in indigestion and digestive diseases.

3. Lack of nicotinamide can lead to decreased immune system function in animals. The lack of nicotinamide will affect the ability of animals to recognize and clear pathogens, cause the decline of animal immunity, and be susceptible to various diseases.

Matters that need attention

1. Use in moderation. Nicotinamide is a nutrient, the appropriate addition can promote the growth and development of ruminants, but excessive use may cause negative effects on ruminants.

2. Storage condition. Nicotinamide products are easily oxidized, so care should be taken to avoid direct sunlight and high temperatures during use and storage.
