Product Description
Choline Chloride 50% Product Overview
Choline Chloride 50% (corn cob carrier) is a high-quality, feed-grade choline source designed for compound feeds and premixes. As a water-soluble B-complex vitamin, choline is essential for fat metabolism, liver protection, growth performance, reproductive health, and nervous system support.
The corn cob carrier ensures free-flowing, uniform granules, easy to handle, mix, and transport. Compared with other choline sources, this grade offers stable nutrient content at a cost-effective price, making it ideal for small to medium feed mills.
