Virtual International is a specialized manufacturer of Vitamin B12 0.1%, a high-quality feed grade premix essential for animal metabolism and health. Our product features Cyanocobalamin, a stable form of Vitamin B12, finely triturated and standardized on a carefully selected carrier. This ensures excellent stability, homogeneity, and flowability for precise inclusion in premixes and compound feeds. Vitamin B12 is indispensable for red blood cell formation, neurological function, and the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, making it particularly critical for young, fast-growing animals.

Key Features & Benefits

• Essential for Metabolism: Acts as a vital coenzyme in energy metabolism, helping animals efficiently convert feed into energy for growth and production.
• Prevents Anemia: Plays a fundamental role in hematopoiesis (the formation of red blood cells). Adequate supplementation prevents megaloblastic anemia, which can lead to poor growth and lethargy.
• Supports Nervous System Health: Critical for maintaining the myelin sheath that protects nerve fibers, ensuring proper neurological function.
• Optimizes Growth in Young Animals: Piglets and chicks have high requirements for Vitamin B12. Supplementation is crucial for maximizing growth rates, improving feed efficiency, and ensuring a healthy start.
• Excellent Stability & Mixability: Our standardized production process guarantees a uniform premix that blends seamlessly into all feed types, ensuring every animal receives the correct dosage.

Critical Applications in Modern Livestock Production

Vitamin B12 0.1% is a cornerstone of diets that are primarily plant-based, as vegetable protein sources are naturally devoid of this vitamin.

Swine:

• Absolutely essential in starter, grower, and finisher diets, especially those low in animal protein.
• Improves growth rates and feed conversion in weaned piglets.

Poultry (Broilers & Breeders):

• Improves hatchability and embryonic development in breeder flocks.
• Supports rapid growth and feed efficiency in broilers.
• Prevents deficiency symptoms such as gizzard erosion.

Ruminants:

• While mature ruminants synthesize B12 via microbial action in the rumen, young calves or animals with compromised rumen function can benefit from supplementation.
