Abstract
Present invention relates to the use of hydroxytyrosol (HT), maslinic acid (MA) and oleanolic acid (OA) as additive in feed for a domesticated animal at very early days of life or from birth. The invention provides an additive with particular amounts of these three ingredients and an additivated feedstuff ready to use comprising said additive.
Claims9
A feedstuff comprising an additive for a domesticated animal at a non-reproductive age, the additive comprising hydroxytyrosol, maslinic acid and oleanolic acid, wherein hydroxytyrosol is in a percentage by weight from 0.3% to 5.0% w/w, maslinic acid is in a percentage by weight from 2.0% to 20% w/w, and oleanolic acid is in a percentage by weight from 0.5% to 15% w/w to obtain a final feedstuff, all percentages in relation to the total weight of the additive;
- wherein maslinic acid and hydroxytyrosol are in a weight ratio (MA/HT) in the final feedstuff from 2:1 to 20:1 and maslinic acid and oleanolic acid are in a weight ratio (MA/OA) in the final feedstuff from 1:1 to 10:1, and wherein the feedstuff comprises an amount of additive giving hydroxytyrosol at a concentration from 2.5 ppm to 20 ppm, maslinic acid at a concentration of at least 10 ppm and up to 75 ppm, and a concentration of oleanolic acid of at least 5 ppm and up to 35 ppm, all concentrations in relation to the total weight of the feedstuff.
A method for preparing a feed for a domestical animal, the method comprising adding to a first feed for a domesticated animal an additive comprising hydroxytyrosol, maslinic acid and oleanolic acid, in which hydroxytyrosol is in a percentage by weight from 0.3% to 5.0% w/w, maslinic acid is in a percentage by weight from 2.0% to 20% w/w, and oleanolic acid is in a percentage by weight from 0.5% to 15% w/w to obtain a final feed, all percentages in relation to the total weight of the additive;
- wherein maslinic acid and hydroxytyrosol are in a weight ratio (MA/HT) from 2:1 to 20:1 in the final feed and maslinic acid and oleanolic acid are in a weight ratio (MA/OA) in the final feed from 1:1 to 10:1, and
- wherein the final feed comprises an amount of additive giving hydroxytyrosol at a concentration from 2.5 ppm to 20 ppm, maslinic acid at a concentration of at least 10 ppm and up to 75 ppm, and a concentration of oleanolic acid of at least 5 ppm and up to 35 ppm, all concentrations in relation to the total weight of the final feed.
