- The product should not be mixed into complete feeds and stored for extended periods of time.
- The vitamin E activity is provided as d-alpha-tocopherol, a natural-source and biologically active form of vitamin E. This form of vitamin E, although less stable than tocopheryl-esters, does not have to be hydrolyzed prior to absorption. This seems to be of greater importance to young animals that may have a deficiency of esterase enzyme necessary to cleave the tocopheryl-esters prior to absorption and exotic animals such as the elephant and rhinoceros.
- The micellized form also enhances the ability of animals to utilize vitamin E. The micellization process allows the fat-soluble vitamin to be absorbed more readily than dry, oil-based, or emulsion-forms of vitamin E.

Vitamin E not less than 500 IU |
This product contains 500 IU vitamin E activity per 1 ml.
This product contains 500 IU vitamin E activity per 1 ml. It is designed to be fed at a daily rate of 1-3 IU per pound of body weight (2-6 IU per kg). As an example, a 100 lb animal would require 0.2 to 0.6 ml daily to provide 100 to 300 IU vitamin E activity. A 1000 lb animal would require 2 to 6 ml daily to provide 1000 to 3000 IU vitamin E activity. The product may be diluted with water immediately prior to feeding.
The selected dosage should depend upon previous as well as existing feeding and management practices that affect animals' vitamin E status. The most important factors that increase the need for supplemental vitamin E are:
- Low plasma tocopherol levels (below 0.2 mg per dL),
- Continual confinement feeding of animals,
- Feeding poor quality, long-stored roughages,
- Feeding milk replacers that contain tocopheryl-acetate to young animals, and
- Feeding high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA's).
