Abstract
A liquid animal feed supplement. The liquid feed supplement, which is gravitationally stable for prolonged periods of time, comprises essentially a colloidal mixture of spent brewers' yeast and a water dispersible water-binding agent in an aqueous alcoholic medium.
Claims17
A liquid animal feed supplement comprising a colloidal mixture having a pH below 5, and a solids content of from 30 to 50% by weight suspended in a colloidal suspension of spent brewers' yeast in an aqueous alcoholic medium and an effective amount of at least one water dispersible water-binding agent, said spent brewers'yeast having a majority of said suspended solids, said supplement being pumpable, having a viscosity of from 250 to 7000 cps at 23.degree. C. and a flow rate of less than 5 minutes and more than 11 seconds at 20.degree. C., and said supplement being further characterized by being gravitationally stable.
A liquid animal feed supplement comprising a colloidal mixture having a pH below 5 and a solids contents of from 30 to 50% by weight suspended in a colloidal suspension of acid killed spent brewers' yeast in an aqueous alcoholic medium and at least on water-dispersible water-binding agent, said spent brewers' yeast being a majority of said suspended solids, said supplement being pumpable, having a viscosity of from 250 to 7000 cps at 23.degree. C. and a flow rate of less than 5 minutes and more than 11 seconds at 20.degree. C., said total water-binding capacity of all the supplement components being equivalent to that provided by from 25.0 to 40% by weight of corn gluten meal, and said supplement being further characterized by being gravitationally stable.
A liquid animal feed supplement comprising a colloidal mixture having a pH below 5 and a solids content of from 30 to 50 percent by weight suspended in a colloidal suspension of spent brewers' yeast in an aqueous alcoholic medium and an effective amount of at least one water dispersible water-binding agent, said supplement being further characterized by being gravitationally stable, the water-binding agent, being selected from the group consisting of corn gluten meal, soybean meal, corn steepwater and dried wheat solubles, the total water-binding capacity of the supplement components being equivalent to that provided by from 25 to 40 percent by weight of corn gluten, said spent brewers'yeast being a majority of said suspended solids, and said supplement being pumpable, having a viscosity of from 250 to 700 cps at 23.degree. C. and a flow rate of less than 5 minutes and more than 11 seconds at 20.degree. C.
