DESCRIPTION

QASDECK POWDER is a high-potency, water-soluble vitamin supplement specifically formulated for poultry. This concentrated powder provides essential fat-soluble vitamins A, D3, E, and K3 in optimal ratios to support immune function, skeletal development, reproductive performance, and overall health during growth, production, and stress periods .

Vitamins A, D3, E, and K3 are crucial for numerous physiological processes including vision, bone metabolism, antioxidant defense, and blood coagulation. This formulation is designed to meet the elevated vitamin requirements during periods of rapid growth, high production, vaccination, and disease recovery .

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Vitamin A (Retinol):

• Essential for maintaining the integrity of epithelial tissues (respiratory, digestive, and reproductive tracts)
• Supports vision, growth, and immune function
• Critical for normal development and maintenance of mucous membranes
• Enhances resistance to infections and supports antibody production

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol):

• Regulates calcium and phosphorus metabolism, essential for bone development and eggshell quality
• Supports immune function and muscle contraction
• Critical for proper skeletal development in growing birds and prevention of rickets
• Improves calcium absorption and utilization

Vitamin E (Tocopherol):

• Potent antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative damage
• Enhances immune response and disease resistance
• Works synergistically with selenium to support muscle integrity and fertility
• Improves hatchability and reduces embryonic mortality in breeders

Vitamin K3 (Menadione):

• Essential for blood clotting through synthesis of prothrombin and other coagulation factors
• Supports bone metabolism and calcium utilization
• Important during stress, vaccination, and recovery periods to prevent bleeding tendencies
• May improve eggshell quality in laying hens

INDICATIONS & BENEFITS

QASDECK POWDER is indicated for the prevention and correction of vitamin deficiencies in poultry, particularly during periods of increased demand .

Broiler Chickens:

• Supports rapid skeletal growth and development
• Reduces the incidence of leg problems and rickets
• Enhances immune function and disease resistance
• Improves feed efficiency and weight gain

Layer Chickens:

• Improves eggshell quality and shell strength
• Supports calcium metabolism during peak production
• Reduces the incidence of cage layer fatigue
• Maintains reproductive tract health

Breeder Chickens:

• Improves fertility and hatchability
• Reduces embryonic mortality
• Enhances chick quality and viability
• Supports reproductive tract development

Stress Management:

• During heat stress to support antioxidant defense
• During vaccination to enhance immune response
• During disease recovery to support tissue repair
• During transportation and handling

Vitamin Deficiency Correction:

• Vitamin A deficiency: characterized by poor growth, respiratory infections, and eye lesions
• Vitamin D3 deficiency: characterized by rickets, soft bones, and poor eggshell quality
• Vitamin E deficiency: characterized by encephalomalacia (crazy chick disease), exudative diathesis, and muscle degeneration
• Vitamin K3 deficiency: characterized by hemorrhagic syndrome and prolonged clotting time

SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE

Vitamin D3 Research:

• Studies have demonstrated that dietary supplementation of Vitamin D3 significantly improves tibia ash content, bone density, and eggshell quality in laying hens
• Supplementation of vitamin D3 has been shown to enhance calcium absorption and utilization in poultry

Vitamin E Research:

• Studies have shown that vitamin E supplementation improves immune response, increases antibody titers post-vaccination, and enhances disease resistance in poultry
• Vitamin E acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting cells from oxidative damage during stress

Vitamin A Research:

• Vitamin A is essential for maintaining epithelial integrity and supporting the immune system
• Studies show that adequate vitamin A levels improve resistance to respiratory and enteric infections

Vitamin K3 Research:

• Vitamin K is essential for the synthesis of prothrombin and other clotting factors, preventing hemorrhagic conditions
• Supplementation of vitamin K has been shown to improve eggshell quality and reduce blood spots in eggs

DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION

QASDECK POWDER is administered via drinking water. For optimal results, fresh medicated water should be prepared daily.

Recommended Dosage:

• Poultry (Broilers, Layers, Breeders, Turkeys): 0.5 - 1 g per 4-8 liters of drinking water
• Prevention: 1 g per 8-10 liters of drinking water, administered 2-3 times per week
• Treatment of Deficiencies: 1 g per 4-5 liters of drinking water for 5-7 consecutive days
• Stress Periods: 1 g per 5-6 liters of drinking water for 3-5 days during vaccination, heat stress, or disease recovery
• Calculation: Each 500 g container treats approximately 2,000-5,000 liters of drinking water at recommended concentrations

Recommended Usage Periods:

• Broiler Starter Phase (0-14 days): Administer for 3-5 days to support early development
• Broiler Grower Phase (15-28 days): Administer for 3-5 days during rapid growth
• Broiler Finisher Phase (29+ days): Administer for 3-5 days before processing
• Layers at Onset of Lay: Administer for 5-7 days as birds come into production
• Layers During Peak Production: Administer for 3-5 days monthly to support eggshell quality
• Breeders: Administer for 5-7 days before and during the breeding season
• Vaccination: Administer 1-2 days before and 2-3 days after vaccination
• Heat Stress: Administer during periods of high ambient temperature

Administration Guidelines:

• Calculate total daily water consumption based on flock size, age, and environmental temperature
• Dissolve the required amount of QASDECK POWDER in a small volume of water, then add to the main drinking water tank
• For use in automatic water proportioners, prepare stock solution according to manufacturer specifications
• Prepare fresh medicated water daily; discard any unused solution after 24 hours
• Ensure medicated water is the sole source of drinking water during supplementation
• For best results, administer over 4-8 hours; may withhold water for 1-2 hours before treatment to encourage rapid consumption

CONTRAINDICATIONS & PRECAUTIONS

• Hypervitaminosis: Do not exceed recommended dosage, as excessive fat-soluble vitamins (A, D3, E, K3) may accumulate in the body and cause toxicity. Symptoms of hypervitaminosis include poor growth, bone abnormalities, and organ damage.
• Egg production: Safe for use in laying hens; no withdrawal period required for eggs when used at recommended levels
• Sensitive species: Use with caution in rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, or horses; consult a veterinarian before use
• Hypersensitivity: Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to any component
• Keep out of reach of children
