Choline Chloride 60%

Content: 60.0% max
Form: Powder on carrier, thin 20 sieves
Species: Pigs, cattle, chickens, fish and shrimp

Choline chloride is the most commonly used and most economical form of choline in feed. At 60% content on a carrier it functions as a nutrient that promotes the resynthesis of amino acids in the animal body and improves immunity and nutrient absorption, which reduces the chance of disease. It is used in pigs, cattle, chickens and in fish and shrimp, improving the quality, safety and nutritional value of meat and egg products while improving the animal's physique.

Why buyers specify this grade

The most commonly used and economical choline source for feed
Content 60.0% max specification with trimethylamine held to 300 ppm max
Ash 6.0% max and loss on ignition 4.0% max, so carrier quality is controlled
Heavy metals as Pb 0.002% max
Applicable across pigs, cattle, chickens, fish and shrimp from one specification

Technical data

Content: 60.0% max
Form: Powder on carrier, thin 20 sieves
Species: Pigs, cattle, chickens, fish and shrimp

Quality control

Released against content, loss on ignition, ash, heavy metals and trimethylamine
TDS and MSDS issued with the order, sample COA on request

Where it is used

Nutrient supplementation in compound feed for pigs, cattle and chickens
Aquaculture feed for fish and shrimp
Amino acid resynthesis support in the ration
Immunity and nutrient absorption improvement programmes

Who buys it

Feed mills and premix producers
Pig, cattle and poultry nutritionists
Aquafeed formulators

Problems it solves

Choline shortfall limiting amino acid resynthesis in the ration
Trimethylamine odour from poorly controlled choline chloride, held to 300 ppm max
Variable carrier quality showing up as high ash in the premix
Disease pressure where immunity and nutrient absorption are limiting

Packing and options

Inclusion rate advised against species and ration
Packing format confirmed at quotation

How it compares

Betaine hydrochloride and betaine anhydrous can partially replace choline chloride as methyl donors and avoid the trimethylamine odour. Choline chloride 60% remains the most economical way to meet the choline requirement itself, and the betaines are used alongside it rather than instead of it where cost is the constraint.

Handling and storage

Dose according to species and the choline requirement of the ration
Store dry and sealed, choline chloride products are hygroscopic
Allow for the chloride contribution when balancing dietary electrolyte balance
