Njengoko inqanda imetabolism ye-microorganisms kunye nokuveliswa kwe-mycotoxins, ii-anti mildew agents zinokunciphisa ukusabela kweekhemikhali kunye nokulahlekelwa izondlo ezibangelwa zizizathu ezahlukeneyo ezifana nobushushu obuphezulu kunye nokufuma okuphezulu ngexesha lokugcinwa kwesondlo.I-calcium propionate, njenge-feed mildew inhibitor, inokukhuthaza ukuveliswa kwee-microorganisms ezinenzuzo kwaye inqande ukuveliswa kwentsholongwane eyingozi kunye nesikhunta. Xa ifakwe kwisisele, inokuthintela ngokufanelekileyo ukukhula komngundo, iphucule umgangatho weselege kwaye ifezekise injongo yokugcinwa ngokutsha.

I-calcium propionateyi-arhente ye-antifungal ekhuselekileyo nethembekileyo yokutya kunye nokutya okuvunywe nguMbutho wezeMpilo weHlabathi (i-WHO) kunye noMbutho woKutya kunye noLimo weZizwe eziManyeneyo (FAO). I-calcium propionate inokufunxwa ngabantu kunye nezilwanyana ngokusebenzisa i-metabolism, kwaye ibonelele nge-calcium efunekayo kubantu kunye nezilwanyana. Ithathwa njenge-GRAS.

I-calcium propionateikhuthaza ukufunxwa kwezondlo kwisondlo kunye nokuphucula ixabiso lesondlo, ilungelelanisa ixabiso le-pH yendlela yesisu yemfuyo kunye neenkukhu, ikhuthaza ukukhula kweebhaktheriya ezincedo njengebhaktheriya ye-lactic acid, ukuphucula umsebenzi we-enzymes yokugaya ukutya njenge-pepsin kunye nokukhuthaza ukugaya kunye nokufunxa izondlo.

I-calcium propionateinokuthintela umxhesho wokungunda ngexesha lokugcinwa kwayo, yandise incasa yemfuyo ekutyeni kwaye iphucule izinga lokusetyenziswa kweprotheyini kwisondlo. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-silage yobisi ephathwa nge-calcium propionate inceda ekubunjweni kwe-short chain fatty acids ebisini kunye nokuphucula izinga lamafutha obisi; Kwelinye icala, inceda ekukhuleni, ekucoleni nasekucolweni kwezakha mzimba kwirumen kunye nokwanda kwemveliso yobisi lwenkomo zobisi. Uvavanyo lokutyisa iinkomo zobisi ngomququ wombona wesilege okhuselwe ngucalcium propionateibonisa ukuba ukutya kunokubola okuncinci, ukuthamba okuthambileyo, incasa entle, kwaye iinkomo zobisi ziyathanda ukutya, oko kunokuphucula isivuno sobisi kunye nesantya samafutha obisi kwinkomo zobisi.
