Name: Zinc sulphate
CAS: 7733-02-0
Function:
Supplementing trace elements
Zinc is a component or activator of many enzymes in animals, and it participates in the metabolic processes of nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, and fats in animals. Zinc sulfate can be used to prevent and treat problems in animals such as stunted growth and development, incomplete skin keratinization, and decreased reproductive performance caused by zinc deficiency. For example, young animals with zinc deficiency may experience decreased appetite and slow growth, and sows with zinc deficiency may have reduced reproductive performance and a decreased number of piglets born. Supplementing zinc sulfate can improve these situations.
Treating skin diseases
Zinc has the functions of promoting skin wound healing and antibacterial activity. Zinc sulfate can be used to treat skin diseases in animals such as dermatitis, eczema, and ulcers, which helps to relieve skin symptoms and promote the repair and regeneration of skin tissues. For instance, for piglets suffering from exudative dermatitis, applying zinc sulfate solution topically or using it for medicated baths can reduce the inflammatory response and promote the recovery of skin damage.
Improving digestive function
An appropriate amount of zinc can maintain the integrity of the gastrointestinal mucosa of animals and the normal digestive and absorptive functions. Zinc sulfate can regulate the balance of the microbial flora in the gastrointestinal tract, enhance the digestive ability of animals, and improve the utilization rate of feed. When animals have symptoms such as indigestion and diarrhea, supplementing zinc sulfate to a certain extent helps to improve digestive function and promote the recovery of the illness.
