Abstract

The invention concerns the use of L-carnitine as a feed-additive for crustaceans and feed containing L-carnitine.

Description

Verwendung von L-Carnitin als Futtermittel-Zusatz für Knistentiere Use of L-carnitine as a feed additive for knee animals
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft die Verwendung von L-Carnitin als Futtermittel-Zusatz für Krustentiere. 5The present invention relates to the use of L-carnitine as a feed additive for crustaceans. 5
Im Rahmen der Tierernährung wird L-Carnitin bisher ausschhesslich als Futtermittel-Zusatz für Nutz- und Haustiere verwendet. Beispielsweise ist bekannt, dass L-Camitin als Futtermittel-Zusatz z. B. für Hunde und Katzen (PCT WO 89/10 065) verwendet werden kann und dass L-Camitin die Schlüpfrate bei Legehennen erhöht (EP-A 0 620 981).In the context of animal nutrition, L-carnitine has so far been used exclusively as a feed additive for useful animals and pets. For example, it is known that L-camitine as a feed additive z. B. for dogs and cats (PCT WO 89/10 065) and that L-camitin increases the hatching rate in laying hens (EP-A 0 620 981).

In Asien expandiert die Erzeugung für Futtermittel von Krustentieren wie von Garnelen, aufgrund erhöhter Nachfrage beträchtlich (New & Csavas, 1993, "Aquafeeds in Asia - a icgional overview, p 1 - 23. In: New, M B , Tacon, A G J and Csavas, I. (eds). Farm-made aquafeeds Proceedings of the FAO / AADCP Regional Expert consultation on Farm-MadeIn Asia, the production of feed for crustaceans and shrimps is expanding considerably due to increased demand (New & Csavas, 1993, "Aquafeeds in Asia - a icgional overview, p 1 - 23. In: New, MB, Tacon, AGJ and Csavas, I. (eds). Farm-made aquafeeds Proceedings of the FAO / AADCP Regional Expert consultation on Farm-Made

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war daher, einen Futtermittel-Zusatz bereit zu stellen, mit welchem die Produktion von Krustentieren gesteigert werden kann. Überraschenderweise wurde nun gefunden, dass L-Camitin sowohl die Wachstumsrate als 20 auch die Uberlebensrate von Krustentieren erhöht und somit als Futtermittel-Zusatz für Knistentiere geeignet ist.The object of the present invention was therefore to provide a feed additive with which the production of crustaceans can be increased. Surprisingly, it has now been found that L-camitin increases both the growth rate and the survival rate of crustaceans and is therefore suitable as a feed additive for siblings.

30 Zweckmassig enthalt das Futtermittel L-Carnitin in einem Konzentrationsbereich von 40 bis 2400 ppm, vorzugsweise von 800 bis 2000 ppm Insbesondere enthalt das Futtermittel ca 1200 ppm L-Carnitin30 Appropriately, the feed contains L-carnitine in a concentration range from 40 to 2400 ppm, preferably from 800 to 2000 ppm. In particular, the feed contains about 1200 ppm L-carnitine
Als Futtermittel-Basis können die für Krustentiere üblichen Futtermittel verwendet werdenThe usual feed for crustaceans can be used as a feed base
J Γ Übliche Futtermittel für Krustentiere enthalten Proteine, Kohlenhydrate, Fette sowie essentielle Komponenten wie Cholesteπn, Vitamine, Mineralien, essentielle und nicht- cssentielle Fettsauren, Aminosäuren etc (Akiyama & Dominy, 1990, "Penaeid shrimp nutrition for the commercial feed industry". Texas Shrimp Farming Manual, Volume 1 : Grow-out technology, Technical Report of Texas Agricultural Extension Service and Texas A & M University).J Γ Common feed for crustaceans contains proteins, carbohydrates, fats and essential components such as cholesterol, vitamins, minerals, essential and non-essential fatty acids, amino acids etc. (Akiyama & Dominy, 1990, "Penaeid shrimp nutrition for the commercial feed industry ". Texas Shrimp Farming Manual, Volume 1: Grow-out technology, Technical Report of Texas Agricultural Extension Service and Texas A & M University).
Als Proteine können tierische Proteine wie Fischmehl und Pflanzen-Proteine wie Sojabohnenmehl verwendet werden.Animal proteins such as fish meal and plant proteins such as soybean meal can be used as proteins.
Die tägliche Dosierung an L-Carnitin beträgt zweckmassig 10 bis 1 150 ppm L-Carnitin pro g Körpergewicht, vorzugsweise 120 bis 950 ppm L-Carnitin pro g Körpergewicht.The daily dosage of L-carnitine is expediently 10 to 1 150 ppm L-carnitine per g body weight, preferably 120 to 950 ppm L-carnitine per g body weight.
Beispiel;Example;
Als Garnele wurden jugendliche Garnelen der Spezies Penaeus monodon (erhältlich von der shrimp farm in Leganes, Iloilo auf den Philippinen) mit einem Gewicht zwischen 2,1 und 15,7 g eingesetzt.Juvenile shrimp of the species Penaeus monodon (available from the shrimp farm in Leganes, Iloilo in the Philippines) with a weight between 2.1 and 15.7 g were used.
Als Futtermittel-Basis wurden zwei Formulierungen f r "starter" und "grower" -Nahrung von importiertem Futter (ALMA, Deutschland) mit hohem und niedrigem L-Carnitin-Gehalt (2178/2183 und 60/310 ppm) hergestellt. Um 6 verschiedene L-Carnitin-Konzentrationen (300, 450, 600, 800, 1200 und 2200 ppm) herzustellen, wurden die beiden zu bestimmtenTwo formulations for "starter" and "grower" food from imported feed (ALMA, Germany) with high and low L-carnitine content (2178/2183 and 60/310 ppm) were produced as the feed basis. In order to produce 6 different L-carnitine concentrations (300, 450, 600, 800, 1200 and 2200 ppm), the two were determined

Parts mixed and finally repelletized (2 mm diameter). The L-camitin contents of the feed used are summarized in Table 1. In addition, a "standard shrimp-feed" formulation of local feed (SEAFDEC / AQD, Philippines) was prepared, the composition of which is shown in Table 2.
