Inventors include Higgins, Niall; Georis, Jacques; and Llamas-Moya, Sara.

The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for improving an animal's growth performance and/or its nutrient utilization by administering an animal feed composition comprising a feed additive or a feed supplement having at least one nuclease. The nucleases in the feed composition hydrolyze in-situ the nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) present along the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of an animal which in turn improves the release of nutritive oligonucleotides in the GIT of an animal. The improved release of nutritive oligonucleotides improves an animal's growth performance and/or its nutrient utilization, especially during stages with high metabolism and/or fast growth of the animals.
