Product Information

Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is a water-soluble vitamin and is essential for poultry. It functions as part of the enzyme system involved in carbohydrate metabolism and plays a key role in cell division due to its involvement in the formation of genetic material, making it particularly important for rapidly growing tissues such as bone. The most important folic acid dependent processes in poultry include: Required for the synthesis of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) needed for cell division and normal cellular function Essential for maintaining normal immune function Involved in red blood cell maturation and blood formation (hematopoiesis) Folic acid deficiency can lead to reduced growth of the body and feathers, perosis, loss of feather pigmentation, and anemia.
