Feed additives properties

Talc is sold for use in a wide variety of appHcations, including paper (qv), ceramics (qv), roofing, paint (qv), plastics, mbber (qv), cosmetics (qv), pharmaceuticals (qv), adhesives (qv), sealants (qv), and animal feedstuffs (see Feeds and feed additives). In all of these appHcations it is a functional ingredient with specific beneficial properties. Talc is rarely used as a filler because it is much more expensive than alternative minerals such as limestone and clay. 

Specialty chemicals are formulations of chemicals containing one or more fine chemicals as active ingredients. They are identified according to performance properties. Customers are trades outside the chemical industry and the public. Specialty chemicals are usually sold under brand names. Suppliers have to provide product information. Subcategories are adhesives, agrochemicals, biocides, catalysts, dyestuffs and pigments, enzymes, electronic chemicals, flavors and fragrances, food and feed additives, pharmaceuticals, and specialty polymers (see Chapter 11). 

Antibacterial drugs are used in veterinary practice for two purposes as therapeutics or prophylactics to control clinical disease, and as feed additives to enhance growth performance of animals. The latter practice presumably depends on the antibacterial action of the drug, even though it is used in low, subtherapeutic doses. The effect thus produced is to be distinguished from the action of a true growth promoter, e.g. monensin (63), and will be discussed in detail later (Section 1.08.6.3). Here we shall consider only the therapeutic/prophylactic properties of antibacterial agents.

Body feed addition may be dry or in slurry form. Slurry concentrations can be as high as 18% but are best kept at 5-10% for lowest pump maintenance. Whatever system is used, it should have the following properties ... 

First of all, there is the scope of GLP as it is defined in the OECD Principles, and which states that GLP encompasses the non-clinical safety testing of test items contained in pharmaceutical products, pesticide products, cosmetic products, veterinary drugs as well as food additives, feed additives, and industrial chemicals. These test items are frequently synthetic chemicals, but may be of natural or biological origin and, in some circumstances, may be living organisms. The purpose of testing these test items is to obtain data on their properties and/or their safety with respect to human health and/or the environment. (OECD, 1998). GLP is thus applicable to safety studies in two major areas Effects on human health and on the environment. These two areas may share some types of studies that have to be conducted in order to test the safety of the respective test item, but other study types may exclusively be required for one or the other area. 

The modem calorimeters can be equipped with numerous additional installations enabling a number of different feed modes, other processes control strategies, such as pH-value dependent, or the simultaneous measurement of additional properties, such as... 

Carboxylic lonophores and Efficiency of Feed Conversion by Livestock. A strong note of relevance to studies of the chemical and pharmacological properties of carboxylic lonophores derives from the large scale use of monensin as a livestock feed additive. The rationale is that carboxylic lonophores control endemic coccidiosis in the poultry gut (30) and promote a more favorable fermentation of cellulose in the bovine rumen (31). In either case, the net result is the economically important Increased efficiency of conversion of feed into meat.
