Abstract: Disclosed is an animal feed composition that comprises free indole acetic acid (free IAA) or a derivative thereof. Also disclosed is a method for enhancing animal growth by feeding the animal with a composition according to the invention. Further disclosed is the use of free IAA or a derivative thereof in a method of therapy of animals in need of a growth-promoting treatment, such as immunocompromised animals, animals with a growth deficit or slow-growing animals. Disclosed is the use of free IAA or a derivative thereof for the preparation of a therapeutical composition for increasing the growth rate and/or the feed conversion rate and/or the immunity of animals in need of such a treatment, in particular, immunocompromised or slow-growing animals. A composition may be in the form of a food or feed supplement.

Abstract: The system (7) for plotting the shape of a tri-dimensional object (2) is used in particular for the profile of a plantar arch (20). It comprises a sensing device (1) having rods (3) movable in a support (10, 11) such that said object (2) can be applied onto the first end (300) of each of said rods under a determined pressure force so as to drive said rods (3) in a translation motion and such that the set of the second ends (301) of said rods (3) define a surface (S.sub.A) replicating said shape to be plotted (20). Spring means (4) are associated with said movable rods (3) to oppose a calibrated resilient force opposing said pressure force. The system further comprises a contactless acquisition device (5) for acquiring and digitalizing said surface (S.sub.A) replicating said shape to be plotted (20), said device (5) delivering output electric signals (V.sub.S) correlated with the space coordinates of said second end (301) of said rods (3), with respect to reference coordinates (P.sub.
