Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a feed additive containing microencapsulated red ginseng,

The present invention relates to a feed additive containing microencapsulated ginseng roots as an active ingredient and a feed for livestock containing the feed additive.

With increasing interest in food safety around the world, there has been a growing debate over food safety as food contains a large amount of harmful substances such as melanin and asbestos. Also, due to the free trade in the world, a large amount of imported products have been imported, and the related diseases are also adding to the controversy. Accordingly, in the case of livestock products, the government has promulgated a policy of prohibiting the use of antibiotics in livestock feeds from 2012 onward, thereby preventing the remaining antibiotics in livestock products in advance and also making diverse attempts to induce safe livestock production have.

"Feed additive" refers to a substance that is added in minor amounts to livestock and poultry feed for nutritional or specific purposes. Feed additives are also called supplementary feeds or special feeds, and unlike feed and concentrate feeds, only a small amount of the feed additive can supply the essential nutrients. The feed additive is intended for nutrition, growth promotion, disease prevention or treatment and quality maintenance of livestock or poultry, and is used for special purpose such as salt, bone meal, vitamin, amino acid, antibiotic, hormone, These include.

"Red ginseng" is a yellowish brown processed ginseng, which is selected from 6-year-old ginsengs produced in designated cultivation areas of ginseng, and has been cooked and dried with special processing technology. It is known that red ginseng produces maltol having excellent anti-aging effect, ginsenoside-Rh2 inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, and paroxetriol, which are excellent active ingredients possessed only by red ginseng, It was confirmed that the composition did not deteriorate even in preservation.

It is known that about 700 tons of "red ginseng roots", which is the residue left after extracting red ginseng extract, is produced in Korea annually, and it contains 25 to 40% of active ingredient of red ginseng. Especially, according to the results of Korea Ginseng Corporation, the red ginseng powder is compared with the red ginseng concentrate, red ginseng concentrate, which is sold in the market. The saponin component of red ginseng is 15 times as much as ginsenoside Rg3, 0.25 times as ginsenoside Rg1, It is said that Rb1 is contained 0.5 times more. Saponin components and other active ingredients in red ginseng roots are found in the body as anti-cancer, anti-arteriosclerosis, anti-diabetic, anti-thrombosis, anti-aging, hypertension inhibition, immune function enhancement of the elderly, brain function strengthening, cholesterol lowering, The effect of which is known.

When these red ginseng roots are used in livestock feed such as cattle, pigs, and chickens, these useful ingredients are ingested into livestock, thereby producing high quality meat and eggs.

However, even if a useful ingredient is added to a feed, it can not be expected to have an effect if the animal can not sufficiently ingest it and use it efficiently. In fact, many feeds including ginseng and herbal medicines including red ginseng have been tried, but there is a problem that the intakes are not high because of the strong taste and flavor of the livestock. In addition, even if ingested, it was not absorbed in the body sufficiently and was often discharged as it is.

The inventors of the present invention have developed a method of preparing red ginseng roots and adding them to feeds in a form capable of enhancing the body absorbability without reducing the palatability. In addition, the present inventors have made efforts to produce healthy meats and fine meat that can be eaten safely from healthy livestock by promoting the growth of livestock and improving immunity by providing feeds containing red ginseng which exhibits the above effects. As a result, Thereby completing the invention.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a feed additive containing microencapsulated ginseng roots as an active ingredient.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a feed for livestock comprising the feed additive.

The present invention provides a feed additive containing microencapsulated ginseng roots as an active ingredient.

The present invention also provides a feed for livestock comprising the feed additive.

The microencapsulated ginseng roots according to the present invention induce microencapsulation from the red ginseng roots to increase the absorption rate in the body, thereby enhancing and enhancing the searching of the livestock, improving the agility of the livestock, increasing the muscle strength, increasing the resistance to diseases, By significantly improving the carcass weight and color of carcass, the carcass has an excellent effect of promoting the growth of livestock and improving immunity, and thus can be usefully used for feed additives or feed for livestock.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

The microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention are characterized by being obtained by dissolving red ginseng roots in drinking water and microencapsulating them.

The microencapsulated ginseng roots are preferably 10 to 30 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the feed additive.

It is preferable that the microencapsulated red ginseng roots induce microencapsulation from red ginseng roots by using either an emulsifying machine or a stirrer.

In the feed for livestock according to the present invention, it is preferable that the livestock is at least one selected from the group consisting of broiler, laying hens, livestock, cattle, cattle, and pigs. Specifically, the livestock is preferably Korean beef cattle or beef cattle. More specifically, the Korean beef cattle are preferably beef cattle. The above-mentioned cattle means cattle that are raised to be fleshy in a special way to give a lot of good meat. According to the growth period, cattle are classified into breeding period (12 ~ 12 months), fecundation (13 ~ 20 months), midfoot (20 ~ 25 months) and late fecundity (25 ~ 32 months). Yoo Sung Woo means a cow belonging to the breeding season during the growth period of the above-mentioned cattle, and belonging to the stage before milk is mature and sex is matured.

The feed additives of the present invention are preferably fed individually or mixed in a fiber-blended feed. Total mixed ration (TMR) is a method of mixing feed with concentrated feed. The fiber-blended feeds are mixed with agricultural by-products or food by-products such as rice gruel, rice bran, mushroom by-products, bean curd and beer, which can be easily obtained from the surroundings, so that feed costs can be reduced. Hanwoo fed with fiber-fed diets is able to prevent rapid acidification of rumen because it consumes both concentrated feed and forage. In addition, since the fiber-formulated feed helps the development of digestive organs including the rumen of the breeding cattle, it is advantageous for the production of high quality meat as compared with a specification system in which concentrated feed and forage are separated and fed.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples and experimental examples.

However, the following examples and experimental examples are intended to illustrate the present invention in detail, and the content of the present invention is not limited by the examples and the experimental examples.

[Example 1] Preparation of microencapsulated ginseng roots

The microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention were prepared by dissolving red ginseng roots in drinking water to a weight of 20%. The dissolved ginseng roots were added to an emulsifier (Ace HOMOGENAZER, AM-11, NIHONSEIKI KAISHA LTD., Japan) or a high-speed stirrer (Polytron PT 10/35, Brinkmann Co., USA) Respectively. The microcapsule-derived red ginseng material contains microcapsules ranging in size from nanometers to micrometers containing physiologically active substances including saponin derived from red ginseng roots and is referred to as " microencapsulated red ginseng. &Quot;

[Experimental Example 1] Sensory evaluation of Hanwoo fed with microencapsulated red ginseng roots

In order to examine the sensory characteristics of the Hanwoo fed with the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention, the microencapsulated red ginseng roots prepared in Example 1 on Aug. 28, 2011 were administered to domestic Hanwoo livestock farms (Hereinafter referred to as "Gangwoo") during the rearing period. Specifically, a test was conducted to feed the microencapsulated red ginseng roots prepared in Example 1 to Korean cattle. The conditions of feeding of the microencapsulated ginseng roots were 10 g of the growth weight, 20 g of the non-fattening medium, 30 g of the fattening period, and added to the total or mixed total ration (TMR). Then, the sensory evaluation of Hanwoo fed with microencapsulated red ginseng roots was measured. The test standards for these are shown in Table 1 below.

Item Characteristic Appearance Skin color, moisture, skin behavior Agility, agility, endurance Feed intake Intake, number of times consumed, excretions The amount of manure, minute stiffness, color, whether it contains wheat disease Cough, runny nose, saliva,

As shown in Table 1, the appearance, behavior, feed intake, excretion and sensory characteristics of diseases of the subject to which the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention were fed according to the above criteria were examined.

1. Appearance survey

In the experimental farm, it was observed that the search for the Hanwoo fed with the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention became thicker and more smooth. This suggests that the health of the subjects fed the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention is enhanced.

2. Behavioral research

It was observed that the behavior of the calf fed with the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention was aggravated in the farm where the calf was raised among the experimental farms. In addition, from the experimental farmhouse farms where the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention were fed from the farm where the cows were raised, it was observed that the behavior of the cow milk powder-removing calf (aged-two months old calf) became agile and the muscle strength was improved. It is considered that the agility of the subject to which the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention was fed was improved and the muscle strength was improved.

3. Feed intake survey

Feed intake was increased in some farms of experimental farms, while feed intake in some other farms decreased somewhat at the beginning of feeding. The initial reduction in feed intake is considered to be a temporary phenomenon due to changes in the season or feed. On the other hand, among the experimental farms, the feeding of red ginseng did not decrease the feed intake in the dairy cows.

Therefore, it is considered that the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention have no influence on the feed intake of the subject wool.

4. Investigation of manure

Most of the experimental farms observed normal stools. On the other hand, in some farms, dilute varieties were observed, but this seems to have been influenced by the climate at the time of the frequent rainfall. In addition, the diluted feces may be a phenomenon caused by an increase in the water content of the feed due to the feeding of red ginseng roots or a promotion of bowel movement of the subject.

Meanwhile, as a result of observing the manure of the Hanwoo fed with the fiber-blended feed supplemented with the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention, the corn grain was not visually recognized at all. It is believed that the microencapsulated red ginseng root completely decomposes corn cobs by promoting ruminal digestion of Hanwoo.

It is believed that the microencapsulated red ginseng of the present invention promotes digestion and excretory action of the subject.

5. Disease Survey

In order to investigate the immunity of Hanwoo fed with the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention, the occurrence of diseases was examined in the Hanwoo fed with the microencapsulated red ginseng roots prepared in Example 1. Respiratory diseases were observed in some farms among the experimental farms where the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention were fed. However, most of the experimental farms were caused by respiratory diseases It was confirmed that the disease did not develop.

In order to investigate the effect of the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention on the characteristics of breeding and non-breeding cattle, the occurrence of respiratory diseases was confirmed.

In 2008, 50 cows and 100 cows raised in a Kang Shinchun farmhouse were tested twice. As a result, respiratory diseases were not observed in the breeder fed the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention. In 2011, 91 calves fed Hanwoo farm were fed diets containing microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention. As a result, it was observed that the respiratory or digestive-related diseases were significantly reduced in the breeder calves fed with the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention.

Among the experimental farms, 95% of the Korean beef cattle did not have respiratory disease. Some mild respiratory illnesses were observed on one of the experimental farms, but this seems to be the problem of poor floor conditions. As a result, respiratory diseases did not occur in the beef cattle fed with the microencapsulated red ginseng roots of the present invention.

In the course of the experiment, there was no medication for the treatment of the disease.

The microencapsulated red ginseng powder of the present invention significantly improves the immunity of the subject's womb, thus significantly reducing the incidence of infectious or non-infectious diseases including respiratory diseases.

In conclusion, the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention have a significant effect on the appearance and behavior, which are the sensory traits of Korean beef cattle in the process of nourishing Hanwoo and beef cattle, and are thought to promote digestion without significantly affecting the feed intake. In addition, the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention are believed to significantly reduce the disease incidence of Korean beef cattle by improving the immunity of Hanwoo. Therefore, it is considered that the feed additive containing the microencapsulated ginseng roots of the present invention as an active ingredient has a significant influence on the sensory characteristics of Korean cattle.
