Objetivo
This project aims at developing and evaluating consequences (physiological and environmental) of using various organic wastes (OW) from the food/feed industry after their technological processing/purification as upgraded, high added value products of preventive/therapeutic potency for livestock. In the context of phasing-out in-feed antibiotics for livestock within the EU, such post-processed industrial OW as fruits, vegetables, plant-based extracts would be of a great help to overcome a risk of uncontrolled gastrointestinal/metabolic disorders in the absence of in-feed antibiotics in 2006. Besides, novel high value added products should allow to minimise the development of resistances of pathogenic micro-organisms, which meets consumer expectations.This project is addressed towards meeting public demands and Community policy for healthy food (no risk of antibiotic resistance) being produced at a higher animal welfare standard. Moreover, it will improve European competetiveness in providing new, naturally purified OW as potential dietary additives/antimicrobials/functional compounds targeted for combating gastrointestinal/metabolic disorders and/or modulating the gut functioning with positive benefits for quantity/quality of consumable products from livestock. Besides, newly developed/purified OW should allow to reduce the environmental burden with the overproduction of methane and other potentially polluting/toxic compounds. This consortium comprises a multidisciplinary academic staff from the member and candidate states, as well as SMEs to generate new manpower in biotechnological processing/upgrading of organic wastes from the food industry, (bio/phyto)chemistry, nutrition, physiology, bacteriology, functional genomics, feed technology/ manufacturing, and environmental protection.
