Patent ID: 8642090

Claim:
A method for the production of a human or animal nutrition product comprising producing an adsorbate suitable for human or animal nutrition comprising applying a component to a carrier using at least one stabilizer such that the component is adsorbed to the carrier, wherein the carrier has a mean particle size of at least about 200 μm and is a silica or a silica derivative, and wherein the stabilizer is selected from the group consisting of 1) a glyceride; 2) an emulsifier selected from the group consisting of i) non-ionogenic surfactants from at least one of the following groups (1) addition products of from 2 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide and/or from 0 to 5 mol of propylene oxide to linear fatty alcohols containing from 8 to 22 carbons, to fatty acids containing from 12 to 22 carbons, and/or to alkylphenols containing from 8 to 15 carbons in the alkyl group; (2) C 12/18 -fatty acid monoesters and diesters of addition products of from 1 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide to glycerol; (3) glycerol monoesters and diesters and/or sorbitan monoesters and diesters of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids containing from 6 to 22 carbons or their ethylene oxide addition products; (4) alkyl monoglycosides and oligoglycosides containing from 8 to 22 carbons in the alkyl radical and/or ethoxylated analogs thereof; (5) addition products of from 15 to 60 mol of ethylene oxide to castor oil and/or hardened castor oil; (6) polyol esters, polyglycerol esters, polyglycerol polyricinoleate, polyglycerol poly-12-hydroxystearate, polyglycerol dimerate, and/or mixtures thereof; (7) addition products of from 2 to 15 mol of ethylene oxide to castor oil and/or hardened castor oil; (8) partial esters based on unbranched, branched, unsaturated or saturated C 6/22 -fatty acids, ricinoleic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid, glycerol, polyglycerol, pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, sugar alcohols, alkyl glucosides, and/or polyglucosides; (9) mono-, di- and/or trialkyl phosphates, and/or mono-, di- and/or tri-PEG-alkyl phosphates and/or salts thereof; (10) lanolin alcohols; (11) polysiloxane-polyalkyl-polyether copolymers and/or corresponding derivatives; (12) mixed esters of pentaerythritol, fatty acids, citric acid and fatty alcohol and/or mixed esters of fatty acids containing from 6 to 22 carbons, methylglycose, and polyols; and/or (13) polyalkylene glycols; ii) a zwitterionic surfactant; iii) an ampholytic surfactant; iv) a quaternary emulsifier; v) a glycerophospholipid; and vi) a glyceroglycolipid; 3) a polysaccharide; and 4) a chelator; wherein the component is a conjugated fatty acid comprising at least 50% of one of 9-cis-, 11-trans-octadecadienoic acid or 10-trans-, 12-cis-octadecadienoic acid and wherein the adsorbate is coated.
