The present invention relates to methods of manufacturing multiple metal propionates in a single reaction using sodium hydroxide as initiator and propionic acid as solvent. The method provides up to 95% conversion with greater than 60% yield. In addition, the method significantly reduces the cost or production by shortening reaction time, eliminating secondary mixing process, and providing simultaneous drying and micronization steps.

Methods for preparing metal carboxylates in one-pot reaction

Methods of administering a composition that comprises plant extracts selected from the group consisting ofandcontaining compounds such as gallic acid, derivative of gallic acid, gallotannins and hydrosable tannins, which have been found to control coccidiosis in poultry and, more specifically, coccidiosis caused byspp. The plant extracts result in a reduction of lesion score, oocysts per gram of fecal matter and mortality.

Plant parts and extracts having anticoccidial activity

Natural plant parts and extracts of plants selected from the group consisting ofandcontaining compounds such as gallic acid, derivative of gallic acid, gallotannins and hydrolysable tannins have been found to control coccidiosis in poultry and, more specifically, coccidiosis caused byspp. The plant parts and natural extracts result in a reduction of lesion score, oocysts per gram of fecal matter and mortality.

Plant extracts having anticoccidial activity

A method for improving water quality in aquatic ecosystems is described. An effective amount ofnut gall powder is added to the ecosystem to prevent excessive proliferation of pathogenic bacterial species thereby improving the health of aquaculture species in the ecosystem.
