Description
What it is. Mineral feed material consisting of potassium salts of edible organic acids containing at least four carbon atoms. It is obtained by neutralising these organic acids with a potassium base.
What it is for. This type of product is generally used as a source of potassium in formulations, particularly when sodium or chlorine intake needs to be limited. It may also contribute to the electrolyte balance (cation-anion balance) of the diet. Its use concerns various species and stages, depending on the formulation's potassium requirements.
Points to watch. The exact composition depends on the organic acid used, leading to variability in potassium and organic acid content between products. Levels should be checked against the supplier's labelling; no maximum level is set here due to the lack of specific figures.
