Electrolytes are compounds that can dissociate into charged ions in aqueous solutions,and their main components include sodium(Na+),potassium(K+),chlorine(Cl-),calcium(Ca2+)and magnesium(Mg2+).Dietary electrolyte balance(dEB)refers to that the content and proportion of different electrolytes or positive and negative ions in livestock and poultry diets reach the appropriate range to meet the physiological needs of animals and maintain their normal physiological functions.As one of the key elements of dietary for-mulation design,proper dEB value can effectively improve the utilization of dietary nutrients,improve animal health,promote growth and development,and has important significance for improving the economic and so-cial benefits of aquaculture industry.Therefore,this paper aims to review the biological functions of dEB and its application in livestock and poultry production,in order to provide reference for the sustainable development of animal husbandry.[Chinese Journal of Animal Nutrition,2024,36(7):4183-4190]
