Feed and bedding testing

In the breeding process, feed is essential, but the feed on the market is only released after passing the testing. So, what are the six general rules for feed testing? Let's take a look together

What are the six general rules for feed testing

1. Moisture

Moisture has a significant impact on the quality of feed, making it an important indicator of feed and an important economic indicator that is closely related to other technical indicators. Therefore, measuring moisture is very important

2. Crude protein

Crude protein is a general term for nitrogen substances in feed. In addition to protein, it also contains non protein nitrogen (NPN), such as ammonia, free amino acids, peptides, nitrates, amine salts, amides, alkaloids, nitrogen-containing glycosides, urea, and other nitrogen-containing compounds.

3. Crude fat

Crude fat is a general term for feed that can be dissolved in petroleum ether or ether, including fats and lipids (phospholipids, sugar esters, sterols, etc.), as well as other organic substances that can be dissolved in petroleum ether, such as free fatty acids, phospholipids, lipophilic cellulose, pigments, lipophilic vitamins, and waxes, hence it is called crude fat

4. Calcium content

The mineral elements in animal bodies account for about 4%, while Ca, P, and Mg account for 75% of the mineral elements. It can be seen that calcium is an essential element for animals. The calcium content in general feed does not exceed 1%, while the calcium content in fish meal and bone meal feed is 5% to 11%

5. Phosphorus content

Phosphorus is one of the essential mineral elements in animals, with only 4.5% phosphorus in bones. The phosphorus content in feed is generally 0.1% to 1.0%, and only phosphorus in meat powder can exceed 5%. In addition, the content of crude fiber, crude ash, and water-soluble chloride in the feed should also be tested

What are the feed detection technologies available

1. Microscopic detection technology: Place feed samples under a microscope to observe their cell and external morphology. This detection technology is used for the detection of molds

2. Physical detection technology: Commonly used physical detection technologies include density and capacity detection, which can determine whether the feed is qualified by detecting the density of the feed

3. Sensory testing technology: mainly based on testing experience, preliminary testing is conducted from the sensory aspects of feed appearance, color, odor, and feel

4. Chemical detection technology: Professional detection instruments are required. Due to the different spectra generated by different elements, spectral analysis of the ingredients in the feed can identify whether they contain harmful substances

5. Biological detection technology: mainly including DNA detection, microbial detection, and immune detection

6. Near infrared spectroscopy detection technology: By irradiating feed detection samples with near-infrared radiation and observing the spectra generated, the types of elements contained in the feed can be determined

Function of testing report:

1. Project bidding: Issue authoritative third-party CMA/CNAS qualification report

2. Online e-commerce platform entry: Quality inspection report recognized by major e-commerce platforms

3. Used as a sales report: issuing legally effective testing reports to make consumers more confident

4. Papers and research: Provide professional personalized testing needs

5. Judicial services: providing scientific, fair, and accurate testing data

6. Industrial problem diagnosis: Verify the troubleshooting and correction of industrial production problems
