A study of the graduate student in the Department of Animal Science, Faculty of Agriculture, University in Thailand, a study of chromium (

GTF Chromium in the of pigs
But found in terms of quality carcass, in part of thickness of back fat tended to increase and the sectional area of tenderloin tended to increase in the group which has this supplementation. It was found that the amount of it at 200 ppb to make carcass looks great, especially the sectional area of tenderloin. As a result of the fact that chromium acts as Glucose tolerance factor that allows blood glucose level less. It was the result good to the use energy more efficiently.
