The present disclosure describes products formulated to inhibit respiratory conditions and symptoms in animals, along with associated methods of providing such products to the animals. Feeding methods involve providing animals with a feed product that includes a direct-fed microbial composition, at least one phytogenic compound, and/or at least one vitamin. The direct-fed microbial composition includes one or more strains of Bacillus. The animals can include swine or cattle at risk of developing, or already afflicted with, a respiratory condition. Inhibition of respiratory stress can reduce mortality rates and medication administration relative to animals fed the same diet but lacking the feed product.

A method and system are disclosed for producing a protein and fiber feed product from a whole stillage byproduct produced in a corn dry milling process for making alcohol, such as ethanol, and/or other biofuels/biochemicals. In one embodiment, the method includes separating the whole stillage byproduct into an insoluble solids portion and a centrate (solubles) portion. Thereafter, a fine fiber and protein portion may be separated from the centrate (solubles) portion. The fine fiber and protein portion may be dewatered to provide a protein and fiber feed product. In one example, the protein and fiber feed product can include insoluble solids, such as wet or dry distiller's grains with or without solubles. The resulting protein and fiber feed product may be sold and/or used as rumen feed, swine feed, chicken feed, aqua feed, food uses, or have other uses, including pharmaceutical and/or chemical usage, for example.

Disclosed is a piglet feed based on bacteria enzyme synergistic fermentation process. The piglet feed is composed of basic components and bacteria enzyme synergistic fermentation feed. Basic components include soybean protein concentrate, whey powder, fish meal, sodium chloride, choline chloride, stone powder, calcium hydrogen phosphate, composite vitamins, composite trace elements, and composite amino acids. The bacterial enzyme synergistic fermentation feed includes a fermentation substrate, an enzyme preparation, and a bacterial strain. The bacterial enzyme synergistic fermentation feed can not only improve the production performance of piglets, but also improve the utilization rate of feed nutrients, especially the utilization rate of feed phosphorus, thereby reducing the excretion of phosphorus in feces.

The present invention provides an application of tannic acid in preparing a medicament against respiratory viruses. The present invention show through live virus experiments that tannic acid has a significant inhibitory effect on respiratory viruses including SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, Influenza A H1N1 virus, etc., with an exact curative effect, and thus has a broad application prospect in the field of preparation of medicaments against respiratory viruses. In addition, tannic acid exists in a variety of plants, which is a natural active compound existing in nature, and has also been used as a food additive, with a high safety and good foundation for medicament development.

The present disclosure is directed to methods of producing egg granules comprising spray drying an egg comprising one or more antibodies to produce a low moisture egg powder; and dry granulating the low moisture egg powder to produce egg granules comprising the one or more antibodies. The present disclosure also relates to egg granule having a diameter in a range of about 0.70 mm to about 5.00 mm, wherein the egg granule comprises one or more antibodies.

A suspendable feed block system for animals has a feed block formed of a hardened mass of feed supplement material in block form, wherein the feed supplement material provides a source of magnesium. The feed block is molded around and encases a feed block support. The support has an elongated flexible element including a plurality of protuberances located intermittently along a length of the element. At least one end of the elongated flexible element protrudes from the feed block and is fastenable to a separate suspending component. A method of manufacturing the suspendable feed block system for animals is also provided. A mold can be used for forming the feed block with the support suspended or encased therein, and the mold can be biodegradable, edible, or both.
