Abstract
Disclosed are novel pharmaceutical, animal feed compositions and methods of treating non-human animals comprising at least one component selected from the extract(s), fraction(s), active compound(s) and phytochemical(s), or mixtures thereof, derived from non-woody plants of the genus. Animal feed compositions may comprise a basal animal feed and water soluble solids extracted fromand comprising at least one saponin. The water soluble solids may comprise from about 5 to about 30 wt % saponin. The compositions of the present invention can be used for the treatment of non-human animals, such as poultry and more particularly for preventing and treating coccidiosis. An embodiment provides an immunological composition useful for inducing the production of antibodies to an antigen in a non-human animal comprising an antigen, preferably a coccidia, and a saponin composition extracted from. The saponins extracted frombiomass may comprise 25(27)-dehydrofucreastatin, 5(6),25(27)-disdehydroyuccaloiside C, 5(6)-disdehydroyuccaloiside C, furcreastatin and yuccaloiside C.
