Canthaxanthin 10% CAS:514-78-3
Canthaxanthin 10% feed grade is a concentrated form of canthaxanthin that is specifically designed for use in animal feed applications. Canthaxanthin is a naturally occurring pigment found in certain plants, fungi, and microorganisms. When added to animal diets, it can help enhance the coloration of animal tissues, such as skin, feathers, or scales.
The main application of canthaxanthin 10% feed grade is to improve the pigmentation of animals, particularly in poultry and aquaculture species. In poultry, for example, adding canthaxanthin to the feed can result in an enhanced yellow color of egg yolks and chicken skin, which is considered more visually appealing to consumers. In aquaculture, canthaxanthin can be used to enhance the red or pink color of fish, such as salmon or trout, which is highly desired in the market.
