TREATMENT OF POULTRY, PIGS OR FISH FOR REDUCING THE FEED CONVERSION RATIO OR INCREASING THEIR BODYWEIGHT GAIN |
摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for the non-therapeutic treatment of animals selected from the group consisting of poultry, pigs and fish. The treatment comprises orally administering at least one β-alanine compound to the animals in an amount of between 2 and 55 mmol/kg dry weight of said feed for the treatment of poultry and fish and between 2 and 25 mmol/kg dry weight of said feed for the treatment of pigs. These amounts of the β-alanine compound are used for reducing the conversion ratio or for in creasing the bodyweight gain of the animals. The β-alanine compound is in particular β-alanine. In prior art methods higher amounts were used resulting also in a reduction of the feed conversion ratio but this to the detriment of the bodyweight gain. |

1. A method for the non-therapeutic treatment of animals selected from the group consisting of poultry, pigs and fish, which treatment comprises orally administering at least one β-alanine compound to the animals in an amount of between 2 and 55 mmol/kg dry weight of said feed for the treatment of poultry and fish and between 2 and 25 mmol/kg dry weight of said feed for the treatment of pigs, which β-alanine compound corresponds to the following formula (I):or to a salt or an amide thereof, the amide being of the following formula (II):the R1 and R2 groups in formula's (I) and (II) being independently hydrogen, an acetyl or a straight or branched alkyl radical containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and the R3 and R4 groups in formula (II) being independently hydrogen or a straight or branched alkyl radical containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms. |
