Yellow dextrin primarily acts as a binder, energy supplement, and improves the physical properties of fish feed, with the core objective of enhancing feed quality and farming efficiency.
The specific functions include:
- Enhanced Feed Adhesion: Bonds fish feed powder into pellets, reducing disintegration in water and minimizing water pollution and feed waste.
- Energy Source Provider: As carbohydrates, they are digestible and absorbable by fish, providing fundamental energy for growth and activity, and aiding in the overall nutritional utilization of feed.
- Enhance palatability and digestibility: Adjusts the hardness and texture of feed, making it easier for fish to consume; its gelatinization structure also promotes the digestion and absorption of other nutrients by the fish's intestines.
