Patent number: 5662901Abstract: The invention comprises two grain conditioners. The first grain conditioner, which is suitable for use on all grains, comprises a pectinase, a protease, a beta-glucanase and an amylase. The second grain conditioner, which is designed for use on easier-to-digest grains, comprises a pectinase, a beta-glucanase, an amylase and a hemicellulase. The invention also comprises animal feeds which comprise a grain which has been conditioned with one of the grain conditioners of the invention designed to be effective on that grain and methods of increasing the weight gain and feed utilization efficiency of an animal comprising feeding the novel animal feeds of the invention to the animal. The invention further comprises a method of conditioning a grain which comprises providing the grain, contacting the grain with one of the grain conditioners of the invention designed to be effective on that grain and incubating the grain and grain conditioner together for at least about 30 minutes.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 1994Date of Patent: September 2, 1997Assignees: Loveland Industries, Inc., George A.

Patent number: 4592915Abstract: This invention relates to the preservation of moist forage crops, high moisture grains, silages and haylages, brewer's wet and spent grains, distillers wet and spent grains and similar byproducts of fermentation used for animal feeding, and hays made from forage crops. In particular, this invention relates to the process by which these materials may be treated so as to prevent nutrient loss through excessive oxidative degradation and the concurrent heating therefrom.This invention relates to solid and emulsified compositions containing preferably 6-ethoxy-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline, Ethoxyquin, the addition of sorbic acid or alkali metal sorbate and optionally a mix of an alkali metal propionate and an alkaline earth metal propionate, such as calcium propionate, and an alkali metal propionate, such as sodium propionate, and method for preparation of solid and emulsified compositions embodying the above.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 1983Date of Patent: June 3, 1986Inventors: Lewis E. Goyette, James F. Tobey, Jr.
