Feed Additives Produced on the Basis of Organic Forms of Micronutrients as a Means of Biofortification of Food of Animal Origin

الملخص EN

In recent years, there has been a steadily growing demand for animal protein.

Consumer awareness is also growing every year, which is why breeders are obliged to provide animals with the best possible environmental conditions that will determine the productivity of animals and the quality of raw materials obtained from them.

Today's consumer is looking for not only the highest quality food but also the one that will characterize health-promoting properties.

Therefore, food is sought, which will be characterized by a favorable profile of fatty acids and a high content of biologically active ingredients, such as vitamins or minerals.

One of the most effective methods of enriching food with these ingredients is their supplementation in feed.

However, it should be remembered that the form in which such a component will be delivered is very important.

High hopes are associated with the possibility of using organic forms of macro- and micronutrients, which are sometimes better absorbed than inorganic salts.

The aim of the work was to collect and systematize knowledge related to the possibility of enriching food of animal origin with micronutrients using additional feed containing these ingredients in organic form.
