Instead of looking at "total" amino acids, AMINODat focuses on SID, which measures the amount of an amino acid that an animal can actually digest and use.
By using the AMINODat 6.0 database, nutritionists can match the exact nutrient requirements of animals at different life stages, such as weaning or finishing.
Recent research highlights how tools like AMINODat support the use of "functional amino acids" (FAA). Beyond just building muscle, these nutrients:
Optimizes "functional" amino acids like Threonine and Methionine.
Accurate formulation allows for lower crude protein diets. This reduces nitrogen excretion into the environment and lowers the overall carbon footprint of food production. Key Applications and Benefits Description Global Ingredient Data Covers over 500 ingredients from different regions. Ensures accuracy regardless of local feed availability. Sustainability
AMINODat: The Foundation of Precision Animal Nutrition used by nutritionists to formulate precise, sustainable diets for livestock and poultry. Developed by Evonik Industries, it provides detailed information on the amino acid composition and digestibility of hundreds of feed ingredients. The Role of AMINODat in Modern Farming
