VITAMIN FODDER ADDITIVE PRODUCTION METHOD Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A23K10/00 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agriculture, namely to the methods of vitamin fodder additive production. Vitamin fodder additive production method involves washing of maize kernels by tap water for 4-8 minutes. Then the washed kernels are soaked with anolyte with pH 3.0-10.5 and oxidation-reduction potential 860-1580 mV, concentration of oxygen 7.2-17.0 mg/L and of chlorine 0.006-0.01 mg/L during 3.5-4.5 hours at the ratio of kernels to anolyte being 1:2. Afterwards anolyte is removed and the kernels are washed by tap water again for 3-8 minutes. Seed germination and sprouting take place in thin layer without growing medium by the method of air spraying with periodic turning, the total duration of germinaton accounts for 7-9 days at natural ambient light.

EFFECT: invention allows for the production of qualitative vitamin fodder additive from maize kernels due to the acceleration of seed germination process and reduction of its duration, as well as for the production of vitamin fodder additive for livestock and poultry with recommended biochemical and microbiological quality factors along with low finance and labour inputs.
