Egg Yolk Color Enhancer Feed Additive - Apocarotenoic Ester
Apocarotenoic Ester is a fat-soluble pigment derived from natural carotenoids. It is widely used in poultry feed to enhance the yellow pigmentation of egg yolks, skin, and fat tissues in poultry. With excellent stability and bioavailability, it is a safe and effective alternative to synthetic pigments, making it an ideal choice for modern poultry production.
