Sodium Acetate - Feed Ingredient
Sodium acetate is the sodium salt of acetic acid, appearing as a white, crystalline powder that is highly soluble in water. It is commonly used in various industries as a preservative, buffering agent, and flavor enhancer. In animal nutrition, sodium acetate can serve as a source of readily available sodium and as a buffer to maintain optimal pH levels in feed products.
In equine diets, sodium acetate is occasionally included as an electrolyte component, aiding in maintaining fluid balance, hydration, and acid-base equilibrium, particularly during periods of heat stress or heavy exercise.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Sodium Acetate as an ingredient.
