Seven Coupons for Raising Efficiency

First, choose a high-quality breed. Selecting the right mink breed is essential for producing premium fur. Look for animals with light-colored fur that is consistent in color and thickness along the back, short and smooth on the top, with a soft texture, good elasticity, and even distribution. The fur should be dense, uniform, and free from white hairs or patches. This kind of fur not only has superior quality but also holds higher commercial value. Second, focus on proper breeding management. Minks typically breed once a year, with estrus occurring between February and March. Therefore, the breeding season usually begins in late January. During this time, it's crucial to provide high-quality feed. Animal-based feeds like fresh blood, eggs, milk, liver, and fish should make up more than 80% of their diet. Additionally, supplements such as Liuwei Dihuang Wan, Epimedium, and vitamins E, B, and C can help improve reproductive health. Inbreeding must be avoided to maintain genetic diversity and prevent degradation. As the female approaches the end of her pregnancy, ensure she receives sufficient nutrition. When feeding slaughtered animals, remove organs like the adrenal and pituitary glands, which contain sex hormones, to avoid complications such as fetal death or miscarriage. Third, pay attention to insulation to increase pup survival. After birth, place a hot water bottle in the nesting box and use two electric heating pads to keep the environment warm. This helps maintain the body temperature of newborn pups and significantly improves their survival rate. Fourth, take preventive measures against diseases. From July to August, young minks grow rapidly, but this period also brings higher risks of disease due to high temperatures and humidity. Feed can spoil quickly, making them more prone to gastrointestinal issues like enteritis and dysentery. To reduce these risks, incorporate fresh herbs such as purslane, sorrel, psyllium, violets, and dandelion into their diet. Not only does this lower feed costs, but it also helps prevent heatstroke and infections. Vaccinate young minks in June and July against canine distemper, paratyphoid, and pasteurellosis. The vaccination site should be on the inner part of the hind leg. Fifth, consider alternative food sources. To reduce costs, soy flour and peanut meal can replace some meat products, while sweet potatoes can substitute certain vegetables. However, include fresh pork blood, eggs, and milk to enhance the flavor and nutritional value of the feed. Sixth, improve nutrition during the molting period. During the equinox, minks begin to shed their old fur and grow new coats. This is a critical time for fur quality improvement. In addition to high-quality concentrates, add vegetable oils (such as soybean or peanut oil) and vitamin B2 to their diet. These nutrients support healthy fur growth and appearance. Seventh, harvest at the right time. Once the mink has completed its molt, it is ready for slaughter. Only select mature skins, not in bulk. When slaughtering, ensure the fur remains intact and undamaged. Avoid cutting the fur, as this can greatly reduce its quality and market value.

Herbal Extract

Plant extracts refers to substances extracted or processed from plants (all or part of plants) with appropriate solvents or methods. They can be used in pharmaceutical industry, food industry, daily chemical industry and other industries.

There is a conceptual intersection between plant extracts and Chinese herbal extracts. The raw materials of plant extracts in China mainly come from Chinese herbal medicine. Therefore, domestic plant extracts can also be called traditional Chinese medicine extracts to some extent. They are generally included in the category of traditional Chinese medicine products in China's export trade statistics.


Development History

China's plant extracts come from the traditional Chinese medicine industry, and the overall development time is relatively late. In the 1970s, some Chinese herbal medicine factories began to use mechanical equipment to extract active ingredients, but only as part of production, plant extracts have not been produced on a large scale. Until the 1990s, the international trend of returning to nature rose, and people began to tend to use natural plant products. During this period, China's foreign trade rose, and China's Plant Extract industry was getting better and better. In the 21st century, with the application of more advanced extraction methods such as enzymatic extraction, ultrasound, supercritical extraction, membrane separation technology and microwave extraction technology, the yield of extract has been greatly improved, and China's plant extract industry has entered a golden period of development. From 2010 to 2015, the production capacity and export volume of plant extracts increased steadily and rapidly every year, and the proportion of plant extracts in the export of traditional Chinese medicine also increased a lot. Since 2016, the market situation of plant extracts has changed.


Classification


1. According to the content of active ingredients, it can be divided into three categories: effective monomer extract, standard extract and ratio extract;

2. It is divided into glycosides, acids, polyphenols, polysaccharides, terpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, etc;

3. According to the product form, it can be divided into vegetable oil, extract, powder, lens, etc.

4. According to the purpose, plant extracts can be divided into natural pigment products, traditional Chinese medicine extract products, extract products and concentrated products.

Application

The application scope of plant extracts has been very wide nowadays. In addition to traditional Chinese medicine products, with the gradual increase of people's trust and dependence on natural products, a large part of plant extracts have been used in health products and food ingredients. In addition, plant extracts have been used in cosmetics and feed in recent years.

Some of the best-selling plant extracts in the world have several classifications. For example, Rhodiola, ginkgo, ginseng extract, etc. are used in the fields of brain strengthening, intelligence, prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease; Green tea, Fructus aurantii Immaturus, apple and bitter melon polypeptide extract are applied to reduce weight, reduce blood sugar and prevent diabetes. Paclitaxel, tea polyphenols, theanine, bioflavonoids such as lycopene and Anthocyanin are used in the field of natural anti-cancer; Licorice, garlic, Astragalus membranaceus and soybean extracts are used in the field of human immune system.
