The invention relates to bird feed comprising synthetic capsaicinoids for prohylactic use or treatment of salmonella infection.

An animal feed product disclosed herein has a feed mixture disposed in a container, where the feed mixture has a plurality of animal feed particles and seed butter coating each of the animal feed particles. A removable cover is coupled to the container over the cavity to encase the feed mixture. A method disclosed herein relates to heating a seed butter to reduce its viscosity. Animal feed particles are translated through a spraying region and each of the animal feed particles are coated with the heated seed butter to form a seed mixture. The seed mixture is deposited in a container defining a cavity and the feed mixture is compressed in the cavity. Other embodiments are described.

The present invention refers to a glycerol ester composition comprising glyceryl monovalerate, for use in preventing and/or alleviating bacterial inflammation in a monogastric animal (including human) by inhibiting the adhesion of pathogenic bacteria to the intestinal lumen of said animal. The present invention also refers to a therapeutic method for promoting the renewal and growth of epithelial cells in the small intestine of a monogastric animal (including human), the method comprising the step of distributing a glycerol ester composition comprising glyceryl monovalerate to said animal.

A nectar type bird feeder having an incorporated short-wavelength, ultraviolet light source adapted to illuminate the nectar contents and feeder internal surfaces. The ultraviolet light exposure functioning to significantly retard the growth of nectar spoiling micro-organisms and thereby to significantly extend the nectar freshness or service life. The ultraviolet light source may be built directly into the nectar feeder or configured as an add-on accessory. The preferred embodiment of the nectar feeder, ultraviolet light device will be solar powered and made to cycle on/off automatically. As hummingbirds are adapted to see UV-A light (300 nm-400 nm) the light source may be cycled on/off during the day to make the feeder visually conspicuous and thereby more attractive to the feeding birds.
