A hydrolysate compound protein for larval largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) and use thereof for aquatic animal feeds. The micro-diet was formulated with the following components: 72-74 parts by weight of a hydrolyzed protein pre-mixture, 3-5 parts by weight of mixed fish soluble meal, 4-6 parts by weight of gluten flour, 2-4 parts by weight of sodium caseinate, and 0.4-0.6 parts by weight of a yeast hydrolysate, where the hydrolyzed protein pre-mixture includes white fish meal, fermented soybean meal, shrimp meal and blood meal with the weight ratio of 58-62: 5-7: 4-6: 2-3. The compound protein is obtained by fully pulverizing the foregoing components, passing through a 100-mesh sieve, fully mixing in proportion, and being hydrolyzed with neutral protease and keratinase.

This disclosure describes methods to separate solids from liquids in a production facility. A process separates components in the process stream by applying non-condensable media to create density differences and then using a mechanical device to separate the solids from the liquids based on the density difference. The process produces the liquids and solids, which may be further processed to create valuable animal feed products.

Methods of preventing or decreasing PEDv and/or Salmonella bacteria in animal feed, feed ingredients, and pet food are provided. The methods utilize generally safe chemical mitigants, such as medium chain fatty acids, essential oils, and sodium bisulfate. The chemical mitigants are introduced to the feed or feed ingredients at inclusion rates selected so as to prevent or decrease PEDv and/or Salmonella bacteria in the animal feed, feed ingredients, or pet food. The methods are particularly suitable for use in post-processing treatment of animal feed, feed ingredients, or pet food that will be transported and stored for multiple days or weeks.

Provided herein are compositions and methods for the treatment or prevention of pathogenic infections.

A seaweed-based commercial swine feed additive which replaces the synthetic chemical additives that are currently used in swine feed is provided. Synthetic additives are replaced with a combination of seaweed species thereby providing a natural product that improves the nutritional value of the pork, and may replace the chemical use of antibiotics.
