 Dosage Calculation and Advantages and Disadvantages of Amoxicillin Powder.png

Amoxicillin is favored by many pig farmers because of its many advantages such as intramuscular injection, drinking water and mixing materials, large usage, small side effects, and cheap effect. However, in the actual use process, there are also many improper uses. Today, I will share with you the dosage and usage of amoxicillin. I hope it will be helpful to everyone! In the pig and chicken industry, there is an antibiotic that is widely used in large quantities, and it is amoxicillin. Amoxicillin is favored by many pig farmers because of its many advantages such as intramuscular injection, drinking water and mixing materials, large usage, small side effects, and cheap effect. However, in the actual use process, there are also many improper uses. Today, I will share with you the dosage and usage of amoxicillin. I hope it will be helpful to everyone!
  1. Amoxicillin is commonly used in the following aspects
  1. The early infection effect of Streptococcus suis, Pasteurella and Haemophilus parasuis, Staphylococcus suis (amoxicillin + dexamethasone intramuscular injection) is obvious.
  2. Treatment of yellow and white scour of piglets and swine erysipelas.
  3. It is used for systemic infection of sows and postpartum anti-inflammatory.
  2. Calculation of the amount of amoxicillin powder mixture
  Assuming that the oral dose of amoxicillin is 6 mg/kg body weight, the pig body weight is 50 kg, and the daily feed intake is 3 kg, then: Amoxicillin dosage = 6X50 = 300 mg Mixed feeding ratio = 300 Mg/3kg=100ppm, that is, add 100g of pure amoxicillin per ton of feed.
  At present, the amoxicillin preparation is generally 10% powder, so 1 kg of 10% amoxicillin should be used per ton of feed to prevent general bacterial diseases. This is also the recommended dose of many veterinary drug manufacturers.
  The above calculation is the calculation of the amount of growing pigs, and it should be adjusted to 2-3 kg/ton feed for sows for the best effect.
  3. 10% amoxicillin: Is 1 kg/ton of feed enough?
  In fact, pig farms only use this dosage for disease prevention, and the actual treatment dosage is often larger. Due to people's concerns about drug resistance (and it is true), amoxicillin preparations are relatively cheap and very safe, so in disease control, adding 10% amoxicillin 2-3 kg/ton feed is more effective.
  Here we will introduce the difference between amoxicillin mixing drug administration and drinking water administration, which is convenient for friends who raise pigs to operate.
  Adding amoxicillin to feed has two main advantages:
  (1) A large number of pigs can be treated with less labor. It is very time-consuming to use drug treatment on large groups of animals, and mixing drugs in feed is a very suitable way.
  (2) Consistency. If a treatment needs to last several days, adding the drug to the feed reduces the chance of missing some pigs.
  However, there are also some disadvantages of mixing treatment:
  (1) Action time. It may take several days until all animals have received the drug treatment. When a disease breaks out, medicated feed starts to be ordered and sent to the farm. Last but not least, the tank must be empty before dosing.
  (2) Feed intake. The health status of the pigs will affect feed intake and a certain percentage of pigs may not be eating enough feed to receive adequate drug doses.
  (3) Manufacturing issues. Although there are different products on the market, the stability of the amoxicillin molecule can be affected by feed pelleting. There is also the phenomenon of premix segregation that usually occurs when the feed is mixed, resulting in different doses of the drug in the same batch of feed.
  (4) The risk of intestinal microecological imbalance. Intestinal dysbiosis may occur when amoxicillin (or other antibiotics) is administered orally, resulting in impaired gut health in piglets.
  The above is the detailed method of using amoxicillin in livestock and poultry. You can use it according to the actual situation of your pig farm!

DO SOLAR LIGHTS WORK IN LESS THAN PERFECT SUNLIGHT?

-
You may be able to count on your mailman in rain, snow, sleet, or shine, but what about your outdoor solar lights? One concern for many solar light owners is what happens to them when the weather is not ideal, be it wintry, rainy, or extremely hot and cold. Since the batteries in solar lighting are charged by daylight, these are understandable worries. Depending on what climate you live in, you may be wondering about how your solar lights will perform in different conditions. Here we will answer a few of the top questions often asked about how solar lights work in the winter and in other situations so that you can be sure to prepare well and purchase accordingly. DO Solar Light For Outside  NEED DIRECT SUNLIGHT TO CHARGE? Generally speaking, outdoor solar lights charge up by receiving direct sunlight. So, the more sunlight received during the day will directly impact how long the light will stay illuminated at night. On average, a fully charged solar light yard  from eigh...

Five Causes, Hazards, and Seven Solutions for Murky Pond Water

  Physical Factors Rainfall washes sediment from the surrounding ground and pond embankments into the pond, leading to water turbidity. Newly excavated ponds lack organic matter at the bottom, resulting in nutrient-deficient water that hinders algae growth. Shallow water combined with wind and aerator agitation can easily cause turbidity. Improper installation of  aeration equipment , especially microporous aerators, where the aeration disc is placed too low, stirring up the bottom sediments when the aerator is turned on. This causes the water to become muddy. Shallow water combined with aeration equipment can exacerbate the issue. It's suggested to use a product like  poposoapsolar . Nutrient-deficient water: When algae are scarce, heavy rains can cause a rapid temperature change between the upper and lower water layers, resulting in density currents. These currents stir up bottom sediments, creating muddy water. Biological Factors Overstocking, particularly of bottom-dw...

DL-METHIONINE BENEFITS IN FOOD ADDITIVES: A COMPREHENSIVE OVERVIEW

-
Image
  Introduction: In recent years, the food industry has witnessed a significant shift towards incorporating natural and sustainable ingredients in food products. DL-Methionine, an essential amino acid, has emerged as a promising food additive, offering a wide range of benefits for both manufacturers and consumers. This text aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the advantages of DL-Methionine as a food additive, its diverse applications, and its role in enhancing the nutritional value and quality of various food products. 1. Understanding DL-Methionine:DL-Methionine, chemically known as 2-amino-4-(methylthio) butyric acid, is a sulfur-containing essential amino acid. It cannot be synthesized by the human body, making it indispensable for maintaining various physiological functions. This amino acid exists in two forms: L-Methionine and D-Methionine. DL-Methionine is a racemic mixture of these two forms and is commonly used in food additives due to its stability and cost-effecti...
