## Background
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the field of feed for poultry and livestock, specifically to diaminoguanidine derivatives and application thereof in preparation of an animal growth promoter used in feed.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Growth promoters used in feed, which cover bioactive substances and preparations thereof with various effective mechanisms and various chemical structures, have contributed significantly to the improvement of feed conversion efficiency and productivity of pastoral industry. However, a great amount of antibiotic growth promoters have been or are about to be banned due to the transfer of drug resistance.
Therefore, it is an issue that how to screen out safe and efficient growth promoters used in feed, which are not for human medical use and exhibit no cross resistance with antibiotic for human use, especially non-antibiotic and non-hormonal growth promoters. And the present invention has solved this issue.

Embodiment 15: Feeding Trial (Broilers)
400 1-day-aged, healthy, fast-grown yellow feather broilers (female) in the same growing state and similar in weight were randomly divided into eight groups according to table 5, 50 broilers in each group. Broilers in each group were fed with different dosage of the IST_007 series compounds. The broilers were kept in cages and fed with food and water ad libitum for 30 days, wherein weight gain and feed conversion efficiency of the broilers fed with IST_007 series compounds had been significantly improved (table 6).

Embodiment 16: Feeding Trial (Pigs)
90 65-day-aged. Duroc-YorkShire-Landrace crossbred lean pigs similar in weight were randomly divided into six groups, 15 pigs in each group. Pigs in each group were fed with the IST_007_series compounds with the dosages listed in table 7. The pigs were fed with food and water ad libitum for 14 days, wherein weight gain and feed conversion efficiency of the pigs fed with IST_007 series compounds had been significantly improved. Grouping and results of the trial were as shown in table 7 and table 8.
