Feed Additives - Defined
• As ingredients or combinations of ingredients added to the basic feed mix or parts thereof to fulfill a specific need.
• Usually used in micro quantities and requires careful handling and mixing.

• Many classified as a drug.• A substance,
– Intended for use in the diagnosis, cure mitigation and treatment or prevention of diseases in animals.

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Veterinary Medicine
• Regulates use of Feed additives• Clearance for testing of new feed additives
requires obtaining an investigational new animal drug (INAD) to test a product.
• New animal drug Application( NADA) is required to market a product.

Delaney Clause - 1958
• Congress passed the Delaney Clause in 1958 – Zero Tolerance.
• No substance can be used as a feed additive, even in minute amounts, if it has been in any way implicated as an inducer of cancer in either human or beast.
