OLIGOSACCHARIDE COMPOSITIONS FOR USE ANIMAL FEED AND METHODS OF PRODUCING THEREOF

摘要

Described herein are methods of producing animal feed made up of oligosaccharide compositions, as well as methods of producing such oligosaccharide compositions and animal feed compositions, and methods of using such animal feed compositions to enhance animal growth. The present application addresses this need in the art by providing oligosaccharide compositions suitable for use in animal feed compositions, and methods for producing oligosaccharide compositions suitable for use in animal feed compositions. In one aspect, provided is a method of producing an animal feed composition, by: combining feed sugar with a catalyst to form a reaction mixture; producing an oligosaccharide composition from at least a portion of the reaction mixture; and combining the oligosaccharide composition with a base feed to produce an animal feed composition.
