new flavourings for animal feed The use of antibiotic food additives increasingly meets with obstacles created by movements which are against the use of food additives. So microbiological probiosis appeared ("pro-bios" instead of "anti-bios") which refers to organisms and substances that contribute to intestinal microbial balance. More recently the probiotic concept has been augmented by applying it to molecules or active principles able to modify intestinal microbes favourably without direct antibiotic activities (biological probiosis) While microbiological probiosis has already been considerably developed, biological probiosis is still in its infancy. TECNESSENZE, a leader in the aromatisation and sweetening of animal feed, has developed a new aroma based on essential oils and plant extracts which, as well as stimulating appetite, improves feed nutritional efficiency. Tecnaroma HERBAL works by modifying the quantity of the various microbial species that constitute the animal s digestive flora and re-establishing the right balance between the various bacterial strains which are then maintained in their optimal reciprocal relationships. Tecnaroma HERBAL encourages development of positive bacteria and reduces the number of negative ones (colibacilli) thus reducing cases of diarrhoea and gastrointestinal pathologies. The use of Tecnaroma HERBAL in the field has brought about a considerable reduction in the number of E. COLI in the intestinal content of the animals treated, has improved average daily growth and the animals' general state of health. The use of TECNESSENZE products makes animal feed more appetising and increases animal performance through better use of feeds. TECNAROMA HERBAL permits: Increasing feed consumption Improving conversion index Reducing mortality Reducing diarrhoea index and seriousness Increasing animal weight Modulating intestinal flora lncreasing animal well-being Tecnaroma Herbal is stable .
