Generally speaking, the mechanism of action of potassium diformate is nothing more than the effect of formic acid, which is also the basic consideration for the EU to approve potassium diformate as an alternative to antibiotics. There have been many reports on the mechanism by which organic acids or salts, especially formic acid or salts, are added to pig feed to improve production performance.
The important reasons why potassium diformate becomes a growth promoter is safety and antibacterial effects, which are all based on a simple and unique molecular structure. Its main components, formic acid and potassium formate, exist naturally in nature and in the intestines of pigs, and are finally decomposed into CO2 and water, with complete biodegradability. The unique antimicrobial function is based on the combined effects of formic acid and formate. Per unit weight of organic acid, formic acid monocarbonate has the strongest acidity and has a strong antimicrobial effect. Non-dissociated formic acid can pass through the bacterial cell wall and dissociate within the cell to lower the pH. The formate anion decomposes bacterial cell wall proteins outside the cell wall to play a role in sterilizing and inhibiting bacteria, such as Salmonella. Although the growth-promoting mechanism of many antibiotics has not yet been determined, it is generally believed that the improvement of production performance after adding antibiotics to pig feed is related to the suppression of subclinical infections.

(Potassium Diformate) Its main nutritional functions and effects:
(1) Potassium diformate can improve the environment in the digestive tract, lower the pH of the stomach and small intestine, and promote the growth of beneficial bacteria;
(2) Instead of antibiotics, it has the effect of antibacterial and growth-promoting agents. The addition of potassium diformate can significantly reduce the content of anaerobic bacteria, Escherichia coli and Salmonella in the chyme of the digestive tract. Improve the resistance of animals to diseases; and reduce the number of deaths caused by bacterial infections;
(3) Produce green and non-resistant feed to reduce environmental emissions; potassium diformate can promote the digestion and absorption of protein and energy by animals, and can also improve the digestion and absorption of various trace components such as nitrogen and phosphorus by animals;
(4) To prevent piglet diarrhea, potassium diformate can significantly increase the daily weight gain and feed conversion rate of pigs; due to its special slow-release effect, the acidification effect is better than the commonly used compound acidifiers.
