Ammonium Sulfate — cross-standard identity

Derived crosswalk of how one pet-food ingredient is named and defined across jurisdictions. No claim of regulatory equivalence is made — the pairing is anchored on Latin name + process and the verdict states where the definitions actually diverge.

  • Latin anchor: — (not stated in source)
  • Process anchor: AAFCO 57.27 "Ammonium Sulfate"; EU 11.8.1 "Ammonium sulphate"
  • Verdict: closest_with_differences

Per-jurisdiction entry

  • 🇺🇸 AAFCO (US) — Ch.6 57.27 "Ammonium Sulfate": is the product resulting from the neutralization of sulfuric acid with ammonia. It shall contain not less than 21% nitrogen (N) and not less than 24% sulfur (S). It shall contain not more than 75 ppm arsenic (As) and 30 ppm heavy metals reported as lead. This does not include ammonium sulfate made from by-product ammonia recovered from coke-oven gas. It shall be used only in ruminant feeds as a source of sulfur and nitrogen in an amount that supplies not more than 2% of equivalent crude protein in the total daily ration. If a premix, concentrate, or supplement contains more than 2% of equivalent crude protein from ammonium sulfate, the label shall have adequate directions for use and a prominent statement, “Caution--This feed shall be used only in accordance with directions furnished on the label.” (Proposed 1969, Published 1972) Reg. 582.1143 _(src: AAFCO OP 2024 Ch.6, code 57.27)_
  • 🇪🇺 EU — Reg 68/2013 11.8.1 "Ammonium sulphate": Ammonium sulphate ((NH4)2SO4) obtained by chemical synthesis. _(src: EU Reg 68/2013 Annex, code 11.8.1)_
  • 🇨🇳 CN — 公告1773: name "硫酸铵" was not confirmed in the parsed 饲料原料目录 (Ann.1773); it may instead fall under the 饲料添加剂目录 (Ann.2045) or be absent. Marked as no confirmed CN 原料 entry. _(src: 农业部公告第1773号 饲料原料目录 — not found)_

Equivalence is a derived editorial judgement anchored on Latin name + process; where jurisdictions use different regulatory units the verdict is closest_with_differences / no_confirmed_equivalent rather than 'same'.
