Bolifor AQUA

Bolifor AQUA

Monocalcium phosphate, monohydrate - feed grade

Bolifor® AQUA is a feed grade monocalcium phosphate recommended for use in aquaculture feed but can also be used in concentrates, compound feed, mineral feed and other feeds for pet food, cattle, pigs, poultry, aqua and all other animals.

Description

A feed-grade monocalcium phosphate produced by reacting phosphoric acid and calcium sources, in a granulator, under precise conditions.

The selected raw materials, of only mineral origin, and production process ensure a product with good phosphorus digestibility and a level of undesirable elements well below that stipulated by EU feed legislation.

Bolifor Aqua appears as grey granules. The product is highly soluble in water and diluted acids. Bolifor Aqua is odourless and has an acidic taste.

Nutritive value

Trial data show significant differences in phosphorus digestibility between and within the different generic types of inorganic feed phosphates. Reputable independent research institutes regularly evaluate the digestibility of Bolifor feed phosphates in monogastric species.

Trial results consistently demonstrate that Bolifor digestibility values are at the top of the range. Trial reports and digestibility coefficients are available on request.

Directions for use

The superior chemical solubility and biological availability make Bolifor Aqua a top-ranked granular calcium and phosphorus source. It is recommended for use in aquaculture feed but can also be used in concentrates,
compound feed, mineral feed, and other feeds for pet food, cattle, pigs, poultry, aqua, and other animals.
