Description
What it is. Disodium guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) is a purine nucleotide in disodium salt form, obtained by fermentation or synthetic processes. It is a chemically defined additive, identified by CAS number 5550-12-9.
What it is for. This type of additive is generally used as a palatability enhancer in animal feed, particularly for species sensitive to palatability such as companion carnivores. It would be included at low levels in formulations to promote spontaneous feed intake. Its use remains targeted at applications where palatability is a limiting factor.
Points to watch. No maximum content or dosage is specified in the available sources; refer to the regulatory annex and the official product description for incorporation conditions. Variability in the manufacturing process (fermentation or synthesis) may affect product purity and stability, to be verified case by case with the supplier.
