Yellow dextrin primarily serves as a binder, energy supplement, and improves the physical properties of fish feed, with the core aim of enhancing feed quality and farming outcomes.
The specific functions include:
- Enhance feed adhesion: Bonds fish feed powder into granules, reducing feed dispersion in water and minimizing water pollution and feed wastage.
Provide energy source: As carbohydrates, they can be digested and absorbed by fish, providing fundamental energy for growth and activity, and assist in enhancing the overall nutritional utilization of feed.
- Enhance palatability and digestibility: Adjusts the hardness and taste of feed, making it easier for fish to consume; its gelatinized structure also promotes the digestion and absorption of other nutrients by the fish's intestines.
