3. Taminizer® C C the difference
C the High quality
Micro-granules - part. size μ (mean 500 μ)
Additives to guarantee free flowing => processing ↑
Additives to prevent lump formation => storage stability ↑

4. Added values – practical experience Higher throughput of the installation
Less lump formation in CC
Better flowing premix

5. Less down time for cleaning @ major trouble spots
Added values – practical experience Higher throughput of the installation
Less down time for major trouble spots
Bend in feeding line = “cold spot” → condensation → clogging
Exit of mixer : bridge formation & clogging of transport screw

6. Taminizer® C C the difference
C the High activity
Highly concentrated
Taminizer® C = 72% choline versus CC60VEG = 45% choline
1 kg CC kg CC & 667 g ballast
Save volume
Reduced warehouse space & (inland) transport cost
Increased mixer capacity
Create room
Additional ingredients
Acidifiers, probiotics, prebiotics, enzymes
Cheaper ingredients
Soybean meal (48% CP) vs. Protein concentrate (90% CP)
ZnO vs. ZnSO4
Taminizer® C vs. Betaine (2.1 equivalent to CC)

7. Added values – practical experience Higher capacity usage
Increased mixer capacity
3% CC = 2% capacity increase
9% CC= 6% capacity increase
Reduced storage space in warehouse

8. Taminizer® C C the difference
C the High safety
Pure : only synthetic & safe ingredients
No carrier => no undesired substances
Aflatoxins (from fungi)
Spores (from fungi)
Pesticide residues (from crop treatment)
GMO corn cob (for export to EU-27)
Control program = intensive & expensive analyses
NO source => NO risk NO costs

9. Added values – practical experience Some nice-to-haves
No fishy odour → no residual TMA or TMA.HCl
Reduced contamination risk
Excellent bag quality → micro ingredient dosage

Does Taminizer® C improve vitamin stability ?
Degradation of vitamins is influenced by: pH
Minerals (redox)
Temperature
Moisture
Oxygen
Taminizer® C = CC = hygroscopic
Water uptake rate ~ amount CC
Amount CC in premix/feed : Taminizer® C ≡ CC on carrier
Same precautions to reduce vitamin degradation to minimum

12. Taminizer® C C the difference
How to replace CC on carrier by Taminizer® C in a feed recipe ?
No carrier % carrier = buffer
Replace CC on carrier → Taminizer® C + premix buffer
BEWARE of order of mixing and mixer performance
Reduce premix buffer gradually
CC +
hydrates
