Biological nano zinc: Boosting quail health

The use of zinc nanoparticles is not only effective in pigs as shown in most studies. A recent study published in Italian Journal of Animal Science found health benefits of supplementing zinc nanoparticles in quail diets. By June 2022, the European Union plans to ban the use of zinc oxide as a veterinary medicinal product, defined as levels above 150 ppm. In pigs, alternative strategies that include the use of nano zinc particles have been proposed to control post-weaning diarrhoea and mainta
