Protection of Feed and Grain from Mould Contamination
Published:October 19, 2010
Summary

Excellent aticle. Pictures shown about corrosiveness of mould inhibitors is very interesting. This shows the importance of developing technology in the safety front to bring wonderful formulation
Dear Sir,
We always salute to the innovations made by Kemin in the field of Animal nutrition.
This innovative mould inhibitor will definitely resolves the past issues related to use

If i am correct propionic acid is a short chain fatty acid with aliphatic tails of less than

propionic acid is prefered as mould inhibitor?
{Acetic acid , Propionic acid ,Isobutyric acid (2-methylpropanoic acid) ,Butyric acid ,Isovaleric acid (3-methylbutanoic acid) ,Valeric acid (pentanoic acid) ,Caproic acid (hexanoic acid)}
Please your kindly guidence on the topic will help me to upgrade my knowledge on
the subject matter.
Wishing the better success for your this product in the Indian Market.
