| 20120070422 | Method of Treating Ocular Disorders - A method wherein subjects having or at risk for having hyperopia, presbyopia or astigmatism are administered a composition having an effective amount of ocular antioxidants, including specifically macular pigments, to prevent, treat, or delay the onset of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). | 03-22-2012 |
| 20120040034 | Method of Improving the Water Quality in Aquatic Ecosystems - A method for improving water quality in aquatic ecosystems is described. An effective amount of | 02-16-2012 |
| 20110281018 | Mycotoxin Binder - A mycotoxin binder is disclosed characterized by 45% or more humic acid, maximum solubility of 20% at pH between 1.5 and 7.0, and an in vitro mycotoxin binding efficiency of at least 80% and preferably 90% with adsorption of at least 85% at pH 3.0 and desorption less than 10% at pH 6.8. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20110277337 | Plant Material Drying Methods - A method of drying fresh plant material wherein the fresh plant material containing a desired heat labile compound is exposed to microwave energy at an intensity and for a time sufficient to remove a majority of the water from the plant material without degrading a majority of the heat labile compound. The method is particularly suited to in-field drying of freshly harvested plant material to reduce the weight and volume of the plant material for savings transportation costs to an extraction facility while preserving at high levels the amount and activity of the desired heat labile compound. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20110250286 | Micro Particles for Oral Delivery in Animals - A system for the controlled release of one or more physiologically or pharmacologically active substances, comprising compositions in the form of micro particles or granules, particularly for use in the zootechnical and/or veterinary field. The micro particles include a core which contains one or more substances having a pharmacological action, food supplements or diagnostic media, said one or more substances being characterized by the presence, within their chemical structure, of a basic functional group, specifically including an amine functional group. The core comprises also one or more carboxylic acids and/or their salts and eventually one or more excipients. Said core is coated by an outer layer of fats or waxes, and preferably by a mixture of glyceride of fatty acids. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20110183032 | Stomach-proected Alpha-amylase to Improve the Utilization of Diet Energy and Growth Performance of Animals - A protected α-amylase is described. Pelletization and encapsulation technology, in which slow-release materials and pH-sensitive materials are used to protect the α-amylase from inactivation at low pH. The protected α-amylase was found to be highly stable after as long as 3-hour treatment in acid (pH 3.0). When treated in pH 3.0 for 1 hour and followed by treatment with lipase and pancreatin in pH 7.0 for 2 hour to simulate in vivo environment, it was found that α-amylase was fully released and measurable. In addition, the protected α-amylase showed superior efficacy to the unprotected α-amylase. The protected α-amylase also demonstrated enhanced thermostability. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110177194 | Hydrolyzed Lecithin Product to Improve Digestibility - A specific lecithin composition comprising phospholipids and lysophospholipids is described that can be used as an animal feed additive for the improvement of digestibility parameters and consequently gut health and animal performance. In addition, the mixture possesses useful biological and chemical properties that can be utilized in the animal feed and human food industries. The composition is chemically characterized by means of HPLC-ELSD, HPLC-MS/MS and | 07-21-2011 |
| 20090281065 | Use of Lysophospholipids to Treat Inflammation - Phospholipids and lysophospholipids, more particular lysophospatidylcholine (LPC), known to be pro-inflammatory in certain amounts, are demonstrated to be useful in the prevention, the treatment or amelioration of the effects of inflammation. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20090004327 | Enzyme Product for Ruminants - A method is described for improving the digestibility of a forage diet for ruminant animals. A forage, including alfalfa, Chinese wildrye, corn silage, straw silage, corn stover, ryegrass or TMR, is treated with an enzyme product having cellulase, xylanase, beta-glucanase, pectinase, mannanase and alpha-galactosidase activities. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20080199561 | Carotenoid-based Pigmenter - A stabilized carotenoid-based pigmenter free of synthetic antioxidants for the addition to animal feed to add color to tissues of animals fed the animal feed. The carotenoid-based pigmenter contains free-form carotenoids obtained from natural sources through a saponification reaction. A natural antioxidant, such as grape seed extracts, green tea extracts, clove bud oil, clove leaf oil, Vitamin C, cinnamon leaf oil, oleoresin turmeric, tocopherol, tocotrienol, rosemary extracts and gallic acid or salts thereof combined with a diluent, preferably glycerol or a glycerol-like substance, is added to the pigmenter after the saponification reaction. | 08-21-2008 |
