Amino acid additives are used in feed to balance or supplement the nutritional substances required for a specific production purpose. Amino acids are the basic units that make up proteins. The essence of protein nutrition is amino acid nutrition.

Protein is the material basis of life, an organic macromolecule, the basic organic matter that constitutes a cell, and the main bearer of life activities. Without protein there is no life. Amino acids are the basic building blocks of proteins.

Feed additives refer to various trace substances added to compound feed. These trace substances are substances that maintain the high growth rate of broilers and are easily lacking in general feed. These additives are mainly as follows.

Amino acid is the basic unit of protein. It is an organic acid containing amino group. It is composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and other elements. The protein in the feed cannot be directly used by animals, but is decomposed into peptone and peptides by the combined action of digestive enzymes such as pepsin and trypsin, and cannot be used by the organism until the simplest amino acid. Therefore, protein nutrition is actually amino acid nutrition.
