Abstract From the Canadian patent

A feedstock and a method of utility are provided for increasing the content of unsaturated fatty acids in the tissues and milk of ruminants. A preferred feedstock is composed of a fodder substrate which is blended with an unsaturated aliphatic amide ingredient such as soyamide. The unsaturated aliphatic amide is biohydrogenation-resistant and bypasses the rumen sustantially intact. The aliphatic amide is converted to free fatty acid in the digestive tract and subsequently is , absorbed in the tissues and milk of the ruminant.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 12, 1996 and granted July 24, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 12, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 12, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
