Sodium Metabisulfite - Feed Ingredient

Sodium metabisulfite is a white, crystalline powder with the chemical formula Na₂S₂O₅. It is commonly used as a preservative, antioxidant, and antimicrobial agent in various food and feed applications.

In equine feed processing, sodium metabisulfite is occasionally employed to inhibit mold growth, prevent spoilage, or stabilize moisture-sensitive ingredients. It may also be used during the processing of high-moisture feeds, such as wet corn gluten or beet pulp, to extend shelf life and reduce microbial contamination.

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Sodium Metabisulfite as an ingredient.
