The present invention relates to extrudates comprising water-soluble vitamins and other micronutrients. They are obtainable by adiabatic extrusion. During extrusion, temperature is controlled by the viscosity of the composition which is being extruded. Pasteurization temperature is reached, i.e. the extrudates of the invention meet the requirements set out in microbiological guidelines.

Manufacturing of extrudates having improved microbial quality

The present invention relates to storage stable adsorbates of 3-nitrooxypropanol and derivatives thereof as well as to the production of such adsorbates.

Adsorbates

The invention relates to an apparatus for the continuous production of a particulate adsorption product, the apparatus comprising: a mixing drum having an elongated cavity for receiving a particulate adsorbent material, an adsorbent inlet and a product outlet, wherein the mixing drum is arranged such that the cavity is inclined in flow direction of the particulate material, and wherein the cavity comprises an initial transport zone adjacent to the inlet and a mixing zone following the initial transport zone; a rotating member extending through the cavity in a longitudinal direction, wherein the rotating member comprises a helical conveying blade at longitudinal positions corresponding to the initial transport zone and mixing instruments at longitudinal positions corresponding to the mixing zone; and one or more injection nozzles for injecting a liquid adsorbate to the mixing zone. The invention further relates to a process for the continuous production of a particulate adsorption product using such apparatus.

Apparatus and process for continuous adsorption

The invention relates to a process for the continuous production of an adsorption product of a nitrooxy-functional organic compound adsorbed on the surface of a particulate adsorbent material, the process comprising the steps of: continuously feeding particulate adsorbent material into an elongated cavity; continuously conveying the material within the cavity in a downstream direction; continuously spraying a liquid adsorbate onto the particulate adsorbent material, wherein the liquid adsorbate comprises the nitrooxy-functional organic compound; continuously agitating the mixture thus obtained to form the adsorption product; and continuously removing the adsorption product from the cavity. The invention further relates to an adsorption product obtained by such process and the use of such adsorption product in ruminant nutrition.

Continuous production of an adsorption product of a nitrooxy-functional organic compound

The present patent application relates to coated particles. These coated particles show improved properties when used in compressed tablets.

Process for producing coated particles

This invention relates to a process for producing solid formulations. These solid formulations comprise therapeutically active or nutritious plant extracts, which are known for being bad-tasting. These new solid formulation are neutral in taste. Furthermore the present invention relate to these solid formulations as well as to their use in the production of food, feed, nutritional supplement and personal care products.

Process of production of a formulation comprising therapeutically active or nutritious plant extracts

The present invention relates to improved vitamin E formulations, as well as to the production of such formulations.

Powderous vitamin E formulations

The present invention relates to improved powderous formulations of organic acids or esters having an aromatic ring system, as well as to the production of such formulations.

Powderous formulations of organic acids or esters having an aromatic ring system

The present invention relates to compositions, preferably in the form of a powder and/or granules, which contain resveratrol and pectin, and a process for the manufacture of such compositions.
