An exciting range of in-feed flavours and sweeteners is now available from C&H Nutrition. Sourced from a global leader in flavour technology, C&H Nutrition now offers an extensive range of products with the potential to offer custom-developed flavour combinations from more than 800 allergy-tested raw materials. The flavours are encapsulated for longer lasting sensory effects and improved stability, and are more economical than non-encapsulated products. Palatants are available in powder, liquid (water-soluble) or oil soluble formulations. Expert advice is on hand to ensure that selected flavours are compatible with certain feed ingredients, such as fishmeal and fats. Use of an incompatible flavour means the unpleasant taste may not be masked, so it is essential to ensure the correct flavour for each application is chosen. C&H Nutrition also offers three sweeteners: Piggysweet is a uniquely formulated sweetener specifically designed for inclusion in piglet diets up to four months of age. Trials have proved it to outperform a leading sweetener when included in the diets of weaned piglets. Appitello Naturale is an entirely natural sweetener, produced from plant extracts and designed to enhance the palatability of animal feed in situations where saccharin based sweeteners are not permitted. It has a sweetening power approximately 300 times greater than sucrose making it a highly effective natural solution. It is suitable for use in all species and there is no upper dose limit. Phytosweet is a plant-derived appetising additive with a pleasant, hay-like scent. With a sweetening power 40-50 times that of sugar, it allows reduced dietary molasses inclusions whilst still boosting feed intake. Both Appitello Naturale and Phytosweet are approved for organic use.

Luctarom range of palatability enhancers, developed according to the latest trends in flavour research: behavioural sciences (and animal welfare), genomics and analysis technology. Behavioural science imply researching flavour applications and conditioning the post-weaning feeding behaviour of piglets. Early flavour exposure increases later feed acceptance and improves adaptation to post weaning conditions, reducing stress symptoms. Several studies in our own research farm and other Institutions have resulted in new and more accurate piglet models to measure feed preferences for any type of feed ingredients including flavours, and feed intake. Genomics: the application of techniques for molecular biology and proteomics allowed us to further characterize the taste and smell mechanisms in swine and develop new "in vitro" and "in silico" methodologies, that will lead the development of the new flavour generations. Analytical Technology: the animal’s senses are much accurate than the resolution achieved by classic laboratory techniques. New developments in the area of chromatography are reducing the gap. Lucta applies new technologies on volatile compound identification (comprehensive chromatography -Gc times GC- or the development of electronic nose among others) and for flavour extraction from feed and food matrices (e.g. Stir Bar Sorptive Extraction).
