BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Growth promoters for feed, including bioactive substances with various action mechanisms and various chemical structures and formulations thereof, have significant contributions to the improvements of the feed conversion rate as well as the production efficiency of animal cultivation. However, many antibiotic growth promoters that are structurally relevant or cross-resistant to antibiotics used in human clinical medicine have been or are about to be banned due to the transfer of drug resistance.


Therefore, it is a problem that how to screen out a safe and efficient growth promoter for a feed for dedicated animal, which are not used in human medicine and not cross-resistant to antibiotics for use for human, for example, preferably a non-antibiotic and non-hormonal growth promoter for a feed. Fortunately, the present disclosure solved this problem.

Example 16. Effects of Different Concentrations of Isopropoxy-Phenylguanidine Salts on Production Performance of Broilers

Eight hundred (800) broilers aged 1 day were divided into 8 groups and each group with 100 broilers. Different concentrations of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine methanesulfonate were added to the same basic diets. The broilers were free feeding and drinking and continued feeding for 30 days, then to collect statistics of the production performance and the survival rate of broilers in each group. The test design and results of production performance are shown in Table 2. It can be seen that isopropoxy-phenylguanidine methanesulfonate in different concentrations can significantly improve the production performance of broilers, and it has a dose effect on the improvement of production performance, that is, the higher of the concentration, and the more significant of the effect. Further, methanesulfonate with high concentrations have no negative impacts on the production performance.

Example 17. Effects of the Salts of Isopropoxy-Phenylguanidine in a Feed for Pigs

One hundred and twenty (120) Duroc×Landrace×Large White piglets aged 28 days with similar body weight were randomly divided into 6 groups, each with 20 pigs. Different types of salts of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine were added to the feeds respectively in accordance with Table 3. The pigs were free feeding and drinking during the test period of 28 days. The results show that different types of salts of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine can improve the weight gain of the pigs, and can also improve the feed conversion ratio in different degrees, wherein the effect of the salt of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine selected from lactate, methanesulfonate or 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate on the production performance is better than hydrochloride, followed by citrate.

Example 18. Effects of the Salts of Isopropoxy-Phenylguanidine in a Feed for Ducks

Six hundred (600) Cherry Valley ducks aged 1 day were randomly divided into 6 groups, each with 100 ducks. Different types of salts of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine were added to the feed according to Table 4. The ducks were free feeding and drinking during the test period of 28 days. The results show that different types of salts of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine can improve the weight gain of the test ducks, and can also improve the feed conversion ratio in different degrees, wherein the effect of the salt of isopropoxy-phenylguanidine selected from lactate, methanesulfonate or 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate on the production performance is the best and also better than hydrochloride, followed by phosphate. The test grouping and results are shown in Table 4.
