Technologies

The technology portfolio provides proprietary methods and microalgae-based feed compositions as an effective complement or replacement to grain-based animal feeds. These compositions maintain normal growth performance in swine and poultry and do not impact plasma protein, uric acid or inorganic phosphorus levels in fed animals.

D-6696 relates to methods for treating iron deficiencies in animals by oral intake of MB.In vivoexperiments on deficiency-induced anemic weanling pigs have shown that the algae diet has elevated packed cell volume by 23-26% and blood hemoglobin concentrations by 22-32% after three weeks. This diet was also demonstrated to be effective in helping hemoglobin repletion. Additional experiments have shown promising results at extremely low algae concentrations.See also D- 5995 , D- 6393 , D- 6770
