1. Used as a feed additive, copper is a component of various metal enzymes in the animal body and directly participates in energy and material metabolism in the body. Copper is also involved in the osteogenesis of animals and is closely related to mitochondrial collagen metabolism and melanin production.
In addition, a proper amount of copper ion concentration can also activate pepsin and improve the digestive function of animals
2 Prolonged lack of copper in animals can lead to anemia in iron absorption. Excessive copper content in feed can cause copper accumulation in animal livers, which may have adverse effects on human consumption.
