For fodders, there are many kinds of elements
indispensible. Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate os also
widely used in it.
What is Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate (DCPD)?
Dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD), or CaHPO4·2H2O, is
a leavening salt that transfers into an acid when it
contacts water and heat. This allows its reaction with
bases to produce gas in batter-based products, such as
cakes or muffins.
One of the characteristics of DCPD is its slow rate of
reaction. It reacts with baking soda during the late
stages of baking. That’s why it’s known as a heat-
triggered leavening acid.
Origin
DCPD is a type of orthophosphate, a single phosphate
group with two calcium atoms and two water molecules.
This compound is a very stable acid salt which can be
stored under suboptimal conditions without adverse
effects on its leavening performance.
Function
Incorporation into aqueous systems and hydration is the
key to DCPD functionality in bakery batters. Especially,
when heated to temperatures above 150°F (65°C). With
these two conditions met, DCPD breaks down into
phosphorus-containing acids and tricalcium phosphate. The
acids formed then react with the bicarbonate and produce
CO2.
And of course, you can never miss vitamin. Vitamin, any
of several organic substances that are necessary in small
quantities for normal health and growth in higher forms
of animal life. Vitamins are distinct in several ways
from other biologically important compounds such as
proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Although these
latter substances also are indispensable for proper
bodily functions, almost all of them can be synthesized
by animals in adequate quantities. Vitamins, on the other
hand, generally cannot be synthesized in amounts
sufficient to meet bodily needs and therefore must be
obtained from the diet or from some synthetic source. For
this reason, vitamins are called essential nutrients.
Vitamins also differ from the other biological compounds
in that relatively small quantities are needed to
complete their functions. In general these functions are
of a catalytic or regulatory nature, facilitating or
controlling vital chemical reactions in the body's cells.
If a vitamin is absent from the diet or is not properly
absorbed by the body, a specific deficiency disease may
develop.
Vitamins are usually designated by selected letters of
the alphabet, as in vitamin D or vitamin C, though they
are also designated by chemical names, such as niacin and
folic acid. Biochemists traditionally separate them into
two groups, the water-soluble vitamins and the fat-
soluble vitamins. The common and chemical names of
vitamins of both groups, along with their main biological
functions and deficiency symptoms, are listed in the
table.
Besides, there are some others have to be mentioned like
amino acid, choline chloride, carotenoid, antioxidant,
mould inhibitor, feed enzymes and other plant proteins.
