ABSTRACT:
The diets of ruminant animals include proteins which are, unfortunately, largely degraded in the rumen. Therefore, most of the protein is not available to the animal in the intestine where the nutrients can be properly absorbed and utilized by the animal. The present invention overcomes this problem by providing a composition that can be applied to a feed product in order to protect it from degradation in the rumen. In particular, the composition comprises about 10% w/v zein and from about 1 to about 2% formaldehyde in an aqueous alcohol solution. The invention also includes the method for protecting the feed product as well as the protected feed product.
