PalmFat SL955

PalmFat SL955 is a lecithinised palm fat powder for monogastric animals made from fractionated palm fat combined with lecithin. It is free from trans fatty acids and rich in C-16 (Palmitic Acid).

Lecithin – a successful career for a valuable ingredient

Animal feed, foods, toiletries or medicinal preparations: lecithins play a valuable role in many areas of our daily life.
Some 180,000 tons of these fat-like substances (lipoids) are produced every year, mainly from soybeans. They help to enhance and guarantee the quality of numerous products.
Lecithins play an important role in animal nutrition, too. Also classified as “secondary plant metabolites”, these substances are known to have a positive effect in the nutrition of pigs and poultry, and especially in fish farming.
And there are indications that lecithin produces good results in cattle feeding, too.

Improving digestibility

In animal nutrition, lecithin are used as emulsifiers
They improve digestibility of the feed fats and fat-soluble vitamins
Either 1) “crude” lecithin – directly from vegetable fat or 2) “deoiled lecithin” produced by means of extraction
Crude lecithin
- 35-40% oil content
- Viscous consistency
Deoiled lecithin
- High proportion of phospholipids (>95%)
- Available in powder form

Chemical Background

Lecithin belong to the phospholipids with the group of substances important for metabolism
The latter include phosphoric acid, glycerol, choline, inositol and also unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic and linolenic acid. They have a characteristic structure with a hydrophilic or polar group and a hydrophobic or non-polar group.
This polar structure makes lecithins excellent emulsifiers which can be used for stabilizing both oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions.

Liquid or powder?

Deoiled lecithin is the most economical dosage form for feed.
Liquid crude lecithin is used mainly as a raw material for other lecithin powders on carriers.
These powders are made up on the basis of various carriers for different technical applications.
In this consistency they are easier to transport and dose. For technical reasons the phospholipid content in these lecithin powders on carriers is reduced to about one-third.

A diversity of effects

Effects of lecithin is either 1) physical-technical or 2) biochemical-physiological
Physical-technical effects - emulsifier, dispersant, releasing agent and waterbinding capacity.
Physiological effects - metabolism of lipoproteins, phospholipids, triglycerides and cholesterol of various densities (HDL, LDL, VLDL) for the intermediate transportation of fats.
Therefore, when added to fattening feed for pigs, lecithin permits much better conversion of fat thus improve fattening performance.
In milk substitutes it facilitates the feeding of calves and piglets, and it produces good results in broiler fattening and fish farming.

Fats In Broiler Diet

Supplementation of fat has become a normal practice in increasing energy density of broiler’s diet owing to its high caloric value.
It also lowers dustiness and elevates fat soluble vitamins contents in the diet.
Quality of fat has a great contribution to get better poultry growth and feed efficiency.
Vegetable fats are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, better digested and absorbed than animal’s fat which are rich in saturated fatty acids.
Exclusion of fat from diet of growing chicks resulted in growth retardation due to deficiency in fatty acids.

PalmFat SL955

PalmFat SL955 is a palm oil derivative, activated with special lecithin fractions and available in powdered form.
It has high melting point, which reduces the chances of rancidity.
It can be mixed homogenously, thoroughly and easily in the feed during its preparation.
