Definitions
- a trace element deficiency in the body causes a chronic or episodic deficiency leading to more or less serious symptoms. This deficiency is frequently observed in animals, because trace elements are generally poorly absorbed by the body in the duodenum, due to several factors. Indeed, the proteins and fibers in the ration, the precipitating agents and the mineral competitions limit bioassimilation by the body by complexing the trace elements in ionized form.
- the trace element salts administered in addition to the ration have high dissolution kinetics in an acidic environment, so that the trace element solubilized in cationic form becomes complex with the organic matter present in the stomach and can no longer reach the bio-assimilation zone.
- the ionized trace element binds in the stomach to chelating agents present in the diet such as phosphates, oxalates, fats and high molecular weight peptides before reaching the duodenum, resulting in a significant drop in quantities. bio-assimilated.
- phytic acids and their basic forms are phosphorus compounds naturally present in cereals and legumes in the food ration, which form bonds with minerals such as iron, zinc, copper. , cobalt or even manganese, for create insoluble complexes leaving the stomach, so that the trapped minerals are no longer bio-assimilable in the duodenum.
- the pH influences the solubility of the mineral-phytate complexes formed: in the case of zinc, for example the zinc-phytate complexes are insoluble at pHs above 4.3.
- An objective of the present invention is to provide a supplementation tool which improves the bio-assimilation of trace elements, and which makes it possible to reduce the quantity of trace element added in the ration without affecting the functional performance of the animal.
- the diversity of zinc sources used for animal nutrition is significant.
- the raw materials used as a source of zinc in animal nutrition are mainly zinc sulfate and zinc oxide.
- the share of zinc oxide as a source of zinc in poultry farms is estimated at 80%.
- a first approach consisted of modifying the raw material by offering nano-Zinc, zinc oxide with a high specific surface area or microencapsulated zinc salts.
- the invention meets these needs and relates to a synergistic premix for animal nutrition comprising a ternary solid of magnesium, trace element and oxygen, which can be in the form of a solid solution of an oxide magnesium and a trace element oxide, said trace element being chosen from iron, copper, zinc and manganese.
- the synergistic premix comprising a ternary solid of magnesium, trace element and oxygen, which can be in the form of a solid solution of a trace element oxide and Magnesium oxide improves penetration of the trace element through intestinal cells in vitro, and demonstrates better availability compared to trace element oxide alone, at an equivalent dose.

- the pre-mixture of the invention therefore makes it possible to maximize the probability of absorption of the trace element in the duodenum by synergy with magnesium, which acts as a support and a means of physical protection of the trace element in the digestive tract. .

- the invention proposes a food supplementation tool which improves the bio-assimilation of trace elements such as zinc in animals, in particular livestock animals such as ruminants, poultry and pigs.

- the pre-mixture of the invention has the other advantage of reducing the quantity of zinc released into the environment, and of participating in limiting the pollution of soil, water and the food chain by heavy metals. .
- the synergistic premix of the invention delays the solubilization of trace element salts, and can consequently remedy the unfavorable complexations which occur at acidic pH between the solubilized trace elements and certain molecules in the food ration.
- the pre-mixture of the invention equipped with adequate solubilization kinetics makes it possible to increase the proportion of trace elements in ionic form at the end of the passage through the stomach, just before arrival in the intestine, and allows thus increasing the bio-availability of trace elements.
- the trace element oxide has suitable solubility kinetics, the solubilization being delayed in the stomach but rapid enough to make the trace element available in ionic form at the exit from the stomach. the stomach, before entering the place of absorption, the intestine.
- the inventors have surprisingly discovered that the use of a magnesium-based compound can increase the absorption of zinc.

The rations will be prepared by OCIPSA SIGLO XXI (Fuene de Cantos, Badajoz, Spain). All piglets receive a common commercial feed without innovative supplementation.
- a total of 288 piglets (Danbred x Duroc) weaned at the age of 24 ⁇ 5 days are used for the test. Each piglet is labeled, weighed and allocated into groups of 8 piglets per pen. In total, 36 boxes measuring 2.60 x 1.55 meters are considered for the test. The boxes are distributed within three identical rooms with a controlled environment. All huts are equipped with an individual feeder and a drinking nipple. The piglets are distributed by pen so as to have a similar average weight between the different pens, an equal distribution of males and females and a personal space of 0.5 m 2 per piglet at 23 kg weight (in accordance with RD 53/2013 ). Any preventive treatment with antibiotics or antimicrobials is avoided before the start of the trial.
- the experimental conditions in the experimental building are automatically controlled according to the age of the piglet and adapted to commercial practices.
- Piglets are vaccinated against Mycoplasma and Circovirus.
- the weight of the piglets is measured from D0 to D42 post-weaning in order to record the daily weight gain and the total weight at the end of the test.
- the feed consumption of each animal was also recorded each day of the test and listed in the form of an average making it possible to evaluate the conversion rate of the ration (FCR: Feed conversion ratio in English).
- the FCR corresponds to the IC consumption index in French. It is equal to the average daily consumption compared to the average daily weight gain.
- the results are presented in Table 4. The mean values +/- standard deviation are presented per treatment.
- Table 4 Effects of nutritional treatments on the growth performance of piglets from D0 to D42 post-weaning.
