Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of reduction of methane emission in ruminants. Particularly, it relates to the administration of limonene and propanediol mononitrate to a ruminant for reducing the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of said ruminant.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards the use of at least one compound of formula (I) wherein R1, R2 and R3 are independently from each other H or linear C1-6-alkyl or branched C3-8-alkyl, as antioxidant, especially in feed such as pet food and feed ingredients such as fish meal, insect meal and poultry meal, as well as PUFA-containing oils such as marine oil, microbial oil, fungal oil, algal oil and PUFA-containing plant oil. The present invention is further directed towards feed ingredients and feed for insects, aquatic and terrestrial animals comprising such twin chromanols of formula (I).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an improved process for the manufacture of bis-resorcinyl triazines of formula (I), wherein R1 is hydrogen, a C1-C18alkyl group or a C2-C18alkenyl group and R2 is a C1-C18alkyl group or a C2-C18alkenyl group. (I)
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of reduction of methane emission in ruminants. Particularly, it relates to the administration of gossypol and propanediol mononitrate to a ruminant for reducing the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of said ruminant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of manufacturing compound having stereogenic centres from a mixture of E/Z isomers of unsaturated compounds having prochiral double bonds. The hydrogenation product has a specific desired configuration at the stereogenic centres. The process involves two asymmetric hydrogenation steps. The process is very advantageous in that it forms the desired chiral product from a mixture of stereoisomers of the starting product in an efficient way.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of a cis/trans isomerization of an unsaturated compound A being selected from the group consisting of unsaturated ketones, unsaturated ketals, unsaturated aldehydes, unsaturated acetals, unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters of an unsaturated carboxylic acid and amides of an unsaturated carboxylic acid using polythiol as cis/trans isomerization catalyst. It has been observed that the isomerization is very efficient and fast.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of propanediol mononitrate in combination with certain natural substances for reducing the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of said ruminant as well as in increasing the organic matter digestibility in said ruminant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of reduction of methane emission in ruminants. Particularly. it relates to the administration of gossypol in an amount of at least 7.5 g gossypol/animal/day to a ruminant for reducing the production of methane emanating from the diges-5tive activities of said ruminant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of manufacturing (6R,10R)-6,10,14-trimetylpentadecan-2-one in a multistep synthesis from 6,10-dimetylundec-5-en-2-one or 6,10-dimetylundeca-5,9-dien-2-one. The process is very advantageous in that it forms in an efficient way the desired chiral product from a mixture of stereoisomers of the starting product.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of manufacturing (6R,10R)-6,10,14-trimethylpentadecan-2-one in a multistep synthesis from a mixture of (5E,9E)-, (5E,9Z)-, (5Z,9E)- and (5Z.9Z)-isomers of 6,10,14-trimethylpentadeca-5,9,13-trien-2-one or 6,10,14-trimethylpentadeca-5,9-dien-2-one. The process is very advantageous in that it forms in an efficient way the desired chiral product from a mixture of stereoisomers of the starting product.
