The invention concerns the use of a food additive containing at least one intense sweetener, orally and/or rectally administered, to modify flora and/or fermentation in the digestive tract of an animal. The food additive is used to increase the amount of fiber in a diet formula for the animal compared to a previous diet formula without modifying animal zootechnical performance and/or to decrease the amount of starch and/or simple carbohydrates in a diet formula for the animal compared to a previous diet formula without modifying animal zootechnical performance. For example, the animal is fed with a diet formula containing a decreased amount of carbohydrates minus fiber, said decreased amount corresponding to an amount of carbohydrates minus fiber inducing, without said food additive, a glucose uptake rate inferior to an optimal glucose uptake rate, especially inferior to 80% of the maximal glucose uptake rate for the animal.
The invention concerns the use of a food additive including a sweetener in the feed or the drink of a ruminant animal to reduce the impact of stressful conditions on intestinal mucosa quality.
The invention relates to an organometallic complex of the amino acid/metal type. The complex is a crystalline pluri-metal complex that can be obtained in the form of a homogeneous powder that can be used to optimise animal feed. More specifically, the invention relates to an organometallic complex that is characterised in that it is formed by at least one amino acid or amino acid derivative with at least two different metals. The invention also relates to a powder comprising the organometallic complex of the invention, as well as to methods for preparing such a powder.

USE OF DIALKYL-THIOSULFINATE AND/OR THIOSULFONATE TO IMPROVE THE RESISTANCE OF AN ANIMAL INFECTED BY A PATHOGEN
This invention concerns the use of a compound dialkyl-thiosulfinate and/or a compound dialkyl-thiosulfonate to improve the disease resistance of an animal infected by a pathogen. The pathogen may be a virus, bacteria or apicomplexa. The compound is used in an amount of 1g to 20 g per ton of feed (or 0,5g to 10 g per ton of drink). Preferably, the compound is used in an amount of 1g to 10 g per ton of feed (or 0,5g to 5 g per ton of drink).
The invention relates to a method for preparing an odorant composition from which an odor emanates, in particular an aroma, from a target odor O and a set of j bases (B1 to Bj), in which the target odor is smelled and the bases are mixed in appropriate amounts by weight in order to produce the odorant composition. Said method is characterized in that the determination of the respective amounts by weight of the bases (B1 to Bj) to be mixed is carried out according to the following steps: a) after having smelled the target odor O, an olfactory intensity (o1 to on) is assigned to each of the odor descriptors of a predetermined set of n odor descriptors (D1 to Dn); and b) the respective amounts by weight of the bases (B1 to Bj) to be mixed in order to produce the odorant composition are calculated from the assigned olfactory intensities (o1 to on). The invention also relates to an aid for preparing an odorant composition, as well as to a device for preparing an odorant composition.
