- Product Overview
- Manganese is an important trace mineral in animal nutrition. Manganese is an activator of enzyme systems in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, proteins and nucleic acids.
- Manganese deficiency in livestock impairs reproductive performance (delayed cycling, silent heats and reduced conception rates).
- Manganese deficiency in calves lead to skeletal deformities, enlarged joints and reduced birth weight.
- High calcium, phosphorus, iron levels in rations predisposes manganese deficiency.
- Manganese is also essential for normal brain function, and plays a role in collagen formation, bone growth, urea formation, synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol, protein digestion, eggshell formation, and the function of the immune system.
- Manganese is a cofactor in superoxide dismutase and required proper wound healing. Manganese is also reported to play a keyrole in scavenging free oxygen radicals.
