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.

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.

The present invention refers to the use of a calcium carbonate-based composition as an anticaking agent, wherein the calcium carbonate-based composition comprises a first component being a natural ground calcium carbonate or a precipitated calcium carbonate, and a second component being a surface-reacted calcium carbonate, wherein the surface-reacted calcium carbonate is a reaction product of natural ground calcium carbonate or precipitated calcium carbonate with carbon dioxide and at least one H.sub.3O.sup.+ ion donor, wherein the carbon dioxide is formed in situ by the at least one H.sub.3O.sup.+ ion donor treatment and/or is supplied from an external source. Furthermore, the present invention refers to a particulate composition comprising such an anticaking agent, and to a method for producing such a particulate composition.

The present invention is related to the inclusion of dehydrated and encapsulated functional additives formulations in food matrices.

For the encapsulation of the additives, molten hydrophobic mixtures of fatty acids and longchain saponified fatty acids were used under simple encapsulation techniques that require minimum residence times and early solidification.

These specific mixtures of coating materials and the manufacturing process confer physical and chemical resistance to the formulated additives, which allows their use as functional ingredients in industrial processes, such as the production of balanced foods, concentrated foods, dry or wet foods, for humans or animals; where extrusion, baking or pelletizing processes are used, without the additives losing their viability and activity.
