Abstract
The present disclosure provides consumable compositions comprising a haloalkane and a medium chain triglyceride, methods of preparing the consumable composition, and methods of administering the consumable compositions.
Claims21
A consumable solid or semi-solid composition for methane reduction in a ruminant, the composition comprising;
- (i) bromoform in an amount of about 0.0002 wt. % to about 20 wt. %;
- (ii) a medium chain triglyceride (MCT) in an amount of about 0.05 wt. % to about 2.5 wt. %;
- and
- (iii) a stabilizing agent in an amount of about 5 wt. % to about 45 wt. %,
- wherein the bromoform is not derived from a biomass;
- wherein the MCT comprises a caprylic acid (C8) MCT;
- wherein the stabilizing agent is a milk protein, a globular protein or a milk fat;
- and wherein the composition results in at least 60% reduction in expulsion of methane from a ruminant when administered to the ruminant relative to an otherwise similar ruminant not administered the composition over the period of at least one day.
