USE OF ORGANIC NITROOXI MOLECULES IN FOOD TO REDUCE METHANE EMISSION IN RUMINANTS AND / OR TO IMPROVE RUMINANT PERFORMANCE, NUTRITIONAL COMPOSITION OR NUTRITIONAL ADDITIVE TO RUMINANTS
The present invention relates to the use of at least one organic molecule substituted in any position by at least one nitrooxy group to reduce the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of ruminants and / or to improve ruminant performance.
The present invention also relates to animal feed or nutritional feed compositions and additives comprising the above mentioned molecules. The term food or nutritional composition means any compound, preparation, mixture or composition suitable or intended for ingestion by an animal.
In the present context, a ruminant is a mammal of the order Artiodactyla that digests plant food by initially softening it inside the animal's first stomach, known as rumen, then regurgitating the semi-digested mass, now known as rumine, and chewing it again. The process of chewing the rumine again to further degrade plant matter and stimulate digestion is called rumination.
Rumen fermentation has some disadvantages. Methane is produced as a natural consequence of anaerobic fermentation, which represents a loss of energy for the host animal. Carbohydrates make up up to 70-80% of the dry matter in a feed for dairy cattle and, however, the absorption of carbohydrates from the gastrointestinal tract is usually very limited. The reason for
Petition 870190077571, of 12/08/2019, p. 10/14
2/49 this is the extensive fermentation of carbohydrates in the rumen that results in the production of acetate, propionate and butyrate as main products. Such products are part of the so-called volatile fatty acids (VFAs).
-------------------- In addition to energy loss, methane is also a greenhouse gas, which is often more potent than C0 ₂ . Its concentration in the atmosphere has doubled in the last century and continues to increase alarmingly. Ruminants are the main contributors to the formation of biogenic methane, and it has been estimated that preventing the formation of methane from ruminants would almost stabilize atmospheric methane concentrations.
In addition, Copenhagen's assessment of the Kyoto Protocol and subsequently climate change in 2009 establishes increased priority in reducing methane emissions as part of a multi-gas strategy. The most effective additives currently used to reduce methane formation contain antibiotics that slow the proliferation of microorganisms that supply hydrogen (H ₂ ) to methanogens (Sauer et al., 1988. American Society of Animal Science; 76: 906-914) . However, the effect of antibiotics on methane formation has some disadvantages because of the rapid adaptation of the microflora and / or the development of resistance that results in a complete loss of the intended effect within a short period of time (2 to 3 weeks) and because the use of antibiotics is prohibited in Europe for non-therapeutic purposes.
Antibiotic-free products (bile acid derivatives) that result in reduced methane emissions,
3/49 when tested using an in vitro rumen simulation model, have recently been published (WO 2010072584).
However, the amount needed to produce a moderate reduction in methane emissions is not compatible with
5 -------- cost-control-of-the-food-industry-for ruminants.
In addition, several extracts from natural plants (Garli: WO 2009150264, yucca, cinnamon, rhubarb ...) have been described in the scientific literature as potent solutions 10 to reduce methane emissions in ruminants based on in vitro experiments. However, none of these solutions contributed to a commercial product due to side effects (residues in milk), lack of effectiveness, during in vivo tests or the very large amount of additive needed to be supplied to the animal to generate a reduction significant amount of methane.
In these circumstances, there is still a need for the development of new substances that reduce the formation of methane and that are in line with reliable and generally accepted practice, and not a product of a medicinal nature. In addition to reducing methane emissions, these substances can also contribute to improving ruminant performance by improving feed conversion rate, reducing food intake, 25 improving weight gain and / or improving carcass yield and in milk production.
The present inventors have now surprisingly discovered that the compounds specified here have great potential for use in animal feed for the purpose of essentially reducing the formation of methane
4/49 without interfering with microbial fermentation in a way that would be harmful to the host animal. In addition, the compounds of the present invention also confer a great benefit in relation to the performance of the animal in general -5 ------- as determined by the rate of feed conversion, feed intake, weight gain, yield carcasses or milk production. These compounds are also more stable than those previously described in the subject, safer for animals and 10 for humans, result in a persistent effect in reducing methane, do not interfere with palatability, can be produced on an industrial scale at a cost compatible with the animal nutrition industry, above all they do not cause the accumulation of any metabolites in the milk or meat of the supplemented animal 15 and are active in very low concentration in the rumen.
In particular, the present inventors have observed that the administration to ruminants of at least one organic molecule substituted in any position by at least one nitrooxy group is very effective in reducing the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of ruminants without affecting the total production of VFA and / or improve ruminant performance. In addition, the present inventors have shown that when the nitrooxy group is replaced by other chemical groups of similar physico-chemical properties, the technical effect on methane production is lost, demonstrating that the nitrooxy group is essential for the effect on methane reduction of the present invention.

Four of these syringes are the substrate controls, which exhibit gas production without the effect of the tested compounds. Four other syringes are positive control, in which bromoethane sulfonate was added to 0.1 mM. When necessary, 4 syringes contain a control carrier (if test compounds require a carrier). The remaining syringes contain the test substances, in groups of 4 syringes.
Preparation of the medium solution
25/49
The components are mixed in a Woulff bottle in the following order:
- 711 ml of water
- 0.18 ml of the microelement solution ©
5 ------------ 355.5 ml of buffer solution ------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
- 355.5 ml of macro-element solution
The complete solution is heated to 39 ° C followed by the addition of 1.83 ml of sodium salt solution and the addition of the reduction solution at 36 ° C. The rumen liquor is added, 10 when the indicator becomes colorless.
Extraction of rumen liquor:
750 ml of rumen liquor is added to approximately 1,400 ml of medium solution with continued stirring and gasification with CO ₂ .
Filling of syringes, incubation and determination of gaseous volumes and VFA values:
The diluted rumen fluid (24 ml) is added to the glass syringe. The syringes are then incubated for 8 hours at 39 ° C under gentle agitation. After 8 hours, the volume of gas produced is measured, and the percentage of methane in the gas phase is determined by gas chromatography. Results:
The fermented food was artificial TMR (44% concentrate, 6% hay, 37% corn silage and 13% grass silage). The compounds produced as described in examples 2 to 14 were added to the fermentation syringes in a concentration of 2 to 0.005% dry matter (DM). The results are shown in the table below.

Example 17: In vivo effect of 3-Nitrooxypropanol compared to ethyl-3-nitrooxypropionate:
Sheep material and methods were submitted to a rumen cannula. The experiment started one month after the surgical operation. There were three treatments: control, additive 1 and additive 2, both in a single dose. Additive 1 is ethyl-3-nitrooxypropionate and additive 2 is 3-nitrooxypropanol of the present invention. The experimental model consisted of a 3 x 3 Latin square
37/49 with 3 sheep per treatment in each period and 3 consecutive periods. Each period included 28 days of adaptation to treatment plus two consecutive days of methane measurement in chambers and collection of rumen samples. During the 5 ---------- course of the —adaptation phase, a mid-term mezano measurement of one day was performed on the 14th. In addition, during the 22nd and 23rd, samples of hay alfalfa and oats, placed in nylon bags, were incubated in the rumen of the sheep to determine the degradation of dry matter 10 in the rumen. During the two days of methane measurement in chambers (days 29 and 30), samples of the rumen content were collected two hours after the morning feed and sub-samples performed and immediately frozen before DNA extraction and determination of volatile fatty acids 15 and ammoniacal nitrogen concentration. The experimental animals were randomly allocated to three subgroups of 3 animals each and were randomly selected for one of the three treatments (control, additive 1 and additive 2). The 3 subgroups started adapting to the diet with an interval of two days so that they were on the same adaptation day before methane measurement in the chambers. The animals were kept individually in cages with constant access to fresh water. A diet consisting of alfalfa hay cut into 25 15-20 cm and 60:40 oats plus mineral-vitamin supplement was provided to the animals at approximately 1.1 times the energy maintenance level in two equal meals at hours 9 : 00 and 14:00. The intake of fresh matter was monitored daily in each animal 30 throughout the experiment. The additives were provided
38/49 twice a day through the cannula in the rumen at the same time as the food. The corresponding amount of each additive (100 mg per animal and per day of both additives) was added by pipette to 10 grams of ground oats and
5 ----------- wrapped in cellulose paper immediately before being placed in the rumen. As the active molecule is volatile, the procedure mentioned above was carried out in a refrigerated room at 4 ° C.
Measurement of methane and sampling
A group of four methane chambers was used. In the days
14, 29 and 30, the animals were placed in the chambers for methane measurements. Each chamber measured 1.8 m wide x
1.8 m deep x 1.5 m high. The chamber air temperature was maintained between 15 and 20 ° C. Within each chamber, the animals were individually contained in the same cages as during adaptation. Interruptions occurred daily at 9:00 am, when the floor of the chamber was cleaned and the animals were fed. These interruptions had little impact on 20 daily methane emissions because flows were calculated three times a day and then averaged to derive the 23 hour emission figure. Air flow and methane concentration were measured through the input and output ducts of each chamber. Air speed was continuously monitored during the day in the duet and exhaust from each chamber. A subsample of the air flow was made in each of the 4 ducts (chambers 1, 2 and 3 and basic) and the methane concentration was measured continuously using an ADM MGA3000 analyzer (Spurling works, Herts, UK).
It took 11 minutes to prepare sequentially
39/49
the sample air flow at all duets in input andhoods in the chambers (3 minutes in chambers 1, 2 and 3, 2minutes in basic chamber). In short, the flow in methane in
each chamber was calculated on each measurement day at 5 — from --------- the — difference — between ---------- inflow ------- from ---- ------- fresh air ----------- -------- and methane concentrations in the hood of the chamber and the average air speeds.
Analysis of rumen samples
The rumen sample contents were frozen and 10 desiccated and mixed completely by physical rupture using a ball mixer (Mini-bead Meater;
BioSpec Products, Bartlesville, OK, USA) before extracting the DNAm which was performed from approximately 50 mg of sample using the QIAamp® DNA Stool Mini Kit (Qiagen 15 Ltd, West Sussex, UK) followed by the instructions of the manufacturer with the modification that a higher temperature was used for lysis incubation. DNA samples were used as templates for amplification of quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). The abundance of 20 total bacteria, total protozoa and methanogenic archebacteria was quantified by Real Time PCR (qPCR). Groups of different primers were used to amplify total bacteria targeting the 16S rRNA gene (Maeda et al., 2003) and total protozoa targeting the 18S rRNA gene 25 (Sylvester et al., 2005). Primers designed to detect methanogenic archebacteria were targeted against the methylcoenzyme-M-reductase (mcrA) gene (Denman et al., 2007). The amplification mixtures contained 11.5 pL of 2X RT-PCR supermix Bio-Rad (Bio-Rad 30 Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA), 0.4 gL of each
40/49 initiator and 0.5 pL of sample in a final volume of 23 pL. The amplification efficiency was evaluated for each primer set with the following program: a 5 min cycle. The
95 ° C, 40 cycles at 95 ° C for 15 s, 60 ° C for 30 s, 72 ° C for 55 --------------- 5 ------ _s - _and —7 5 ° C — for 6 — s for —measuring — fluorescence emission. The melting curve was constructed by increasing the temperature from 55 ° C to 95 ° C and readings were taken every 5 ° C. The amplification of each target group was performed with the following program: a 5 min cycle. The
95 ° C, 40 cycles at 95 ° C for 15 s, 15 s at 60 ° C and 72 ° C for 45 s (including measurement of fluorescence emission) and a melting curve with an established temperature of 45 ° C and temperatures end of 95 ° c. The absolute amount of bacteria, protozoa and melanogenic archebacteria, expressed as the number of DNA copies, was determined using the plasmid pCR®4-TOPO (Invitrogen ™, Carlsbad,
CA, USA) as standard. The PCR product obtained using the respective primer group was purified and then cloned into plasmid pCR®4-TOPO® (Invitrogen ™, Carlsbad,
CA, USA) to produce recombinant plasmids. A single colony, as for the expected insertion using PCR, was grown in a solid medium with antibiotics and X-gal for one night. Subsequently, a scan of transformed E. coli colonies was performed and some of those positive ones were selected at random. After checking the presence of the fragment inserted in the colonies by PCR, massive culture of positive colonies was performed in liquid medium for one night. Plasmids belonging to these cultures were extracted using the Pure Link ™ kit
Miniprep (Invitrogen ™, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and then
41/49 sequenced to check for the presence of the inserted r fragment. The number of copies of the 16S rRNA gene present in the plasmid extracts was calculated using the plasmid DNA concentration and the molecular mass of the -------------------- --- 5— _ve with insertion. The concentrated plasmid was serially diluted (10 times) to provide a range of 10 to 10 copies and to generate a standard curve.
A quantification of relative abundance was used for methanogenic and protozoan archebacteria as described in Denman and McSweeny (2006) using 16sRNA as the reference gene. Volatile fatty acids were analyzed by gas chromatography and ammoniacal nitrogen concentration by colorimetry following the protocols established in our laboratory (Martín15 Garcia et al., 2004).
Rumen degradability
Three grams of ground food with a diameter of 2 mm were placed in nylon bags of 5 cm x 10 cm with a pore size of 50 pm (# R510 Ankon in situ bags, 20 Macedon, NY). The two ingredients used in the animals' diets were tested: oats and alfalfa hay. The bags with oats were incubated in the rumen for 24 hours, while those with alfalfa hay for 48 hours. The incubation periods were chosen based on the average time spent in the rumen of different food materials.
On days 22 and 23, two bags per food and animal and per period were placed in the rumen immediately before morning feeding. In 24 to 48 hours, they were removed from the rumen, washed and frozen at -20 ° C. At the end of each 30 period, the frozen bags were washed in a machine
42/49 washer using a short cold water program including two bags per food that had been incubated in the rumen with the aim of contributing to solubility. After washing, the bags were placed in the oven at 60 ° C for 48 5 --- hours. The rumen degradability - (%) - was calculated as the loss of dry matter during the incubation period.
Care of the animals in the experiment
All management and experimental procedures given to sheep were carried out by personnel 10 who were rigorously trained in accordance with the guidelines of the
Spain (Act No. 1201/2005 of 10 October 2005) for the protection of experimental animals. The temperature, humidity and expulsion of air in the chambers were carefully monitored considering the welfare conditions of the 15 animals. The CO2 concentration was also continuously monitored to keep it within the limits that ensured good quality and rate of air renewal. The animals did not exhibit any stressed behavior while being placed in chambers.
²⁰ Statistical analysis
Emissions individual of methane, profiles of VFA, acetate ratio and propionate, concentration in nitrogen ammoniacal, transformations in logio gives concentration total bacteria, protozoa totals and
methanogenic archebacteria and relative abundance were analyzed for the effect of adding the additive. The standard error of the mean (SEM) was computed for each analysis. The means were also compared using a test of minimum significant difference (LSD).
Results

Methane emissions, expressed as liters per kg of dry matter ingested, were significantly reduced (P = 0.020) on day 14 when both additives were incorporated into the diet. The reduction observed against the control was 14% and 23%, respectively, for additives 1 and 2. When methane emissions were recorded two weeks later, on days 15, 29 and 30, there was still a numerical reduction, although it has not statistical significance was reached (P = 0.061 and 0.183 for days 29 and 30, respectively).

As a consequence, in both treatments the proportion between acetate and propionate was significantly reduced (P = 0.002). The concentration of ammoniacal nitrogen 10 was similar between treatments and within the expected range for the diet administered to the animals.

Conclusions
The use of both additives resulted in a significant reduction in methane production and, according to the VFA profiles, an exchange in the metabolic pathways involved in H ₂ transfer was also promoted by the additives. The objective of this experiment was to confirm whether the treatment of
47/49 animals for one month showed a persistence of the results observed during two weeks of treatment. This is essential when assessing the suitability of the practical use of a nutritional additive. In this study, both additives — showed a one-month effect — of treatment on methane emissions that was further confirmed by a change in the fermentation pattern.
On the other hand, a change in the fermentation pattern may not only result from a reduction in the production of 10 methane, but also from a lower degradation of fiber which, in turn, would produce less acetate and, therefore, a decreased proportion between acetate and propionate. To exclude this occurrence, an assessment of rumen degradability was carried out by incubating nylon 15 bags with oat and alfalfa hay in the animals' rumen. The results showed the absence of such an effect on dry matter degradation that is also ensured by the same bacterial and protozoan biomass recorded in animals that had received the additives compared to those 20 without any treatment.
Example 18: in vivo effect of 3-Nitrooxypropanol in dairy cows
Animal material and methods: Six Holstein X Friesian dairy cows in 25 lactation with fistulated rumen of second or more farrowing and weighing 550 to 800 kg were used for the study. The cows were halfway through lactation at the start of the study.
Experiment diets: A total mixed feed (RMR) diet was provided to all cows during the
48/49 study. Cows were fed ad libitum (5% refusals) for the duration of the study.
Experimental model: Starting at mid-lactation (with milk yields of 30 liters or more), the six cows 5 — were — selected — for —- one of — the — three — treatments ----- cot supplement in a 3 x 3 Latin square (Table 8). The treatment periods were 5 weeks long.

Dosage of 3-Nitrooxypropanol or placebo: Doses of 3Nitrooxypropanol or placebo were administered to the animals via cannula in the rumen with feeding period in the morning and in the afternoon.
Period model: As only two cows can be housed in indirect calorimeters at a time, the cows were selected in staggered pairs for one week. At the end of week 4, the animals were moved to indirect calorimeters and kept in a stable loop where four measurements of respiratory exchange of 24 were obtained.

Results
Food intake: There was no significant effect of the 5 ---- product— (3-Nitrooxypropanol) —on the —daily — daily — dry matter (DMI) (see Table 9).
Methane production: Methane production (liters / d) and methane yield (liters / kg of DMI) have been significantly reduced by 3-Nitrooxypropanol. The production of 10 methane was 93 and 90% of the control values when doses of 500 and 2,500 mg / d were administered, respectively (see Table 9). With respect to the methane yield, the corresponding values were 95 and 93% of the methane yield in the control, respectively, for low and high doses.
