English name: citric acid
Chemical name: 2-Hydroxy-s-propanetricarboxylic acid
English name 2: 2-hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic acid
CAS No.: 77-92-9
EINECS number: 201-669-1 [1]
Molecular formula: C6H8O7
There is evidence from published studies that citric acid is safe for the target species when used up to 30 000 mg citric acid/kg complete feedingstuffs and the corresponding concentration in water for drinking (10 000 mg citric acid/L). The additive is consequently also safe for the target species at the proposed conditions of use of 15 000 mg citric acid/kg
complete feedingstuffs and 5 000 mg citric acid/L in water for drinking. The quality of the available data does not allow a margin of safety to be derived. The use of citric acid in animal nutrition is safe for the consumer. It is prudent to regard citric acid as potentially hazardous to workers by exposure of the skin, eyes or mucous membranes or by inhalation. The use of citric acid in animal nutrition would not pose a risk for the environment.
The addition of citric acid reduces the pH of aqueous suspensions of compound feedingstuffs and feed materials.
However, the relevance of pH and buffer capacity measurements made with aqueous suspensions to the effects of citric acid in dry feed (< 12 % moisture) is open to question. Citric acid might have the potential to act as an acidity regulator in feedingstuffs.

Adding citric acid to the piglet feed can wean early, increase the feed utilization rate by 5% to 10%, and increase the number of sows. Adding 1% to 2% citric acid in the diet of growing and finishing pigs can increase daily gain, reduce feed-to-meat ratio, increase protein digestibility, reduce back fat thickness, and improve meat quality and carcass characteristics. Rare earth citrate is a new type of high-efficiency feed additive, suitable for pigs, chickens, fish, shrimps, cattle, sheep, rabbits, silkworms and other animals. It can promote animal growth, improve product quality, increase disease resistance and survival rate. Improve the feed conversion rate and shorten the feeding cycle.
