Influence of hexamine and sodium nitrite in combination with sodium benzoate and sodium propionate on fermentation and hygienic quality of wilted and long cut grass silage

Abstract: Bale silage is usually made from long or restricted cut grass. Long cut herbage may be difficult to ensile, because of delayed and heterogenous fermentation. The aim of the present study was to find the optimal composition and level of an additive based on a mixture of hexamine, ie hexamethylene-tetraamine (HMTA) and sodium nitrite (NaN) together with sodium benzoate (NaB) and sodium propionate (NaP) to restrict aerobic deterioration. The silage crop (318 g DM kg−1; 158 g CP, 98 g ash, 89 g WSC, a buffering capacity of 200 mE and an ME value of 8.7 MJ per kg DM) consisting of about 30% ryegrass (Lolium perenne L), 30% meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis L) and 40% timothy (Phleum pratense L) was harvested by a self-loading wagon. Grass was ensiled in 4 l PVC laboratory silos. Silos of each treatment were either closed immediately with a water-seal or aerated with 2.3 l air per 24 h during the first 12 days of ensiling. Silages were treated with additives containing different concentrations and combinations of HMTA, NaN, NaB and NaP. Formic acid treated silage and untreated silage were used as controls. A mixture of HMTA and NaN (KSQ) improved fermentation by reducing pH, butyric acid, ammonia and increasing lactic acid and residual water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC) concentrations. This mixture also reduced the number of Clostridium spores in the silage. Addition to 300 g HMTA and 450 g NaN ton−1 FM was satisfactory to improve fermentation and restrict clostridial activity, but the aerobic stability of the silage was low. Addition of organic acid salts was more effective and improved both fermentation and storage stability. NaB (800 g) or a mixture of 690 g NaB and 210 g NaP was satisfactory to control aerobic stability. The use of HMTA and NaN in combination with NaB and NaP resulted in high hygienic quality and storage stability of silage made from unchopped and wilted grass. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry

Effects of food preservatives on Alternaria alternata growth and tenuazonic acid production.

Abstract: The effects of different organic acids on Alternaria alternata growth and tenuazonic acid production (TeA) were evaluated. Both TeA pure toxin solution and TeA production in solid medium were considered. Sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate and sodium propionate, all preservatives commonly used by food industry in Argentina, were tested. TeA was stable as pure toxin solution when was treated with the salts of organic acids used. A differential effect was observed when the preservatives were evaluated in relation to A. alternata growth and TeA production in solid medium. Levels above 10 mg/kg of sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate produced a total inhibition of fungal development and toxin biosynthesis. Sodium propionate produced a 59% decrease in A. alternata growth and total inhibition of TeA production only at the highest concentration of preservatives used.

Antimicrobial feed additive and antimicrobe by using the antimicrobial feed additive

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject additive not only having excellent antimicrobial activities against various bacteria and viruses, especially salmonella, but also cheap, readily treated and sustaining the antimicrobial activities for a long period by formulating ferrous sulfate, sodium propionate and/or calcium propionate, and copper sulfate as active ingredients. SOLUTION: This additive contains (A) ferrous sulfate (preferably monohydrate), (B) sodium propionate and/or calcium propionate, and (C) copper sulfate as active ingredients. The weight ratio of the components (A)/(B)/(C) is preferably 2/1/1. A fly ash and/or a zeolite or the like is mixed therewith when the treatability is not good because the components A and C have moisture absorbency and deliquescence according to the kind or the like of the hydrate salt. The formulating proportion thereof is preferably 10-30 pts.wt. based on 80 pts.wt. component A. The objective additive can be added to an animal feed so as to be 0.2-0.5 wt.%.

Method for preparing antimicrobial salts

Abstract: Novel antimicrobial products and methods of making and using the same are disclosed, whereby the products can be used in the same or greater percentages as conventional microbial growth inhibitors without imparting an off-flavor, taste, color or odor to the products in which they are used. The antimicrobial products are formed by exposing a compound selected from the group consisting of benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, calcium benzoate, potassium benzoate, acetic acid, sodium diacetate, paraben, niacin, calcium acetate, calcium diacetate, citric acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, sorbic acid, sodium sorbate, calcium sorbate, potassium sorbate, propionic acid, sodium propionate, calcium propionate, potassium propionate and mixtures thereof, to an ammonia gas. In one embodiment, the product is prepared by placing a layer of azodicarbonamide on a substrate and covering the layer with a gas permeable separator. The antimicrobial compound is then added on top of the separator, and the combination is heated to cause the azodicarbonamide to decompose and release ammonia gas to form the final product. In another embodiment, the product is prepared by exposing the antimicrobial compound to an ammonia gas. The ammonia gas reacts with free acids in the antimicrobial compound to convert the free acids into ammonium salts, thereby eliminating off-flavor and off-odor of the resulting antimicrobial product. The antimicrobial products prepared according to the present invention are suitable for use in foodstuffs, sanitation products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and so forth.
