The main function of feed additives is that valine is mainly divided into two isomers, L and D. Among them, L-valine is mainly used as a safe feed additive in the feed field. L-valine is one of the four most important limiting amino acids in low crude protein diets for piglets and broiler chickens.
1. Adding L-valine to the diet of lactating sows can increase milk production. The mechanism of action is that valine can affect the synthesis of alanine and its release from muscles. Adding valine to the diet of sows can increase the level of alanine in plasma to meet the demand of mammary tissue for glucose raw materials, thereby increasing milk production. Valine is of great significance for the production and development of mammary glands, and it is a limiting amino acid in the protein diet of lactating sows. Valine deficiency can reduce the effect of lysine. Although adding lysine to the feed of lactating pigs can improve the protein quality of the feed, it also causes valine deficiency, which in turn affects the milk production of sows and the weight gain of piglets. When lysine levels are high, valine will become the first limiting amino acid.
2. Improve the immune function of animal bodies. Valine can promote the transformation of animal skeletal cells into mature T cells. Valine deficiency can reduce the levels of complement C3 and transferrin, significantly hindering the growth of thymus and peripheral lymphoid tissue, and inhibiting the growth of acidic and neutrophil cells. When weaned piglets lack valine, it can lead to a decrease in their ability to synthesize specific antibodies. Chickens lack valine, which reduces their antibody response to Newcastle disease virus.
3. Affects animal endocrine levels. Research has shown that adding valine to the diet of lactating sows and rats can increase the concentration of prolactin in plasma.
