D 5.1 Report : Selection of the sources of plant bioactive compounds

Summary

Task: 5.1 - Identification of sources of bioactive compounds
Deliverable name: Selection of the sources of plant bioactive compounds
Dissemination level: CO (Confidential, for consortium members)
Delivery month: 7 (October 2018)
Objective
The overall objective of WP-5 is to implement feeding strategies for cattle based on the use of natural sources of plant bioactive compounds to improve animal health, protein use efficiency and product quality. The sources of plant bioactive compounds will be tested in vivo (UCat) and in vitro (INRA) in order to assess their impact on the target parameters when used in different seasonal feeding conditions.
In this context, the specific objective of TASK 5.1 was the selection of sources of plant bioactive compounds to be used in the subsequent activities of WP-5.
