Abstract

A method and composition for preventing and treating Avian Influenza utilizes an effective quantity of polyphenolic(s) and its derivatives in combination with a carrier. The anti-avian influenza ingredient having a composition selected from the group consisting of theaflavin, theaflavin-3,3′-digallate, theaflavin-3-monogallate, theaflavin-3 gallate, theaflavin-3′-gallate, thearubigin, gallic acid, tannic acid, (−)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (−)epigalloatechin (EGC), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (−)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and catechin.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method for preventing and treating Avian Influenza in a poultry, comprising a step of administering to said poultry an anti-avian influenza ingredient having a composition, containing polyphenolic, selected from the group consisting of theaflavin, theaflavin-3,3′-digallate, theaflavin-3-monogallate, theaflavin-3 gallate, theaflavin-3′-gallate, thearubigin, gallic acid, tannic acid, (−)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (−)epigalloatechin (EGC), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (−)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and catechin.  
     
     
         2 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient includes said composition in combination with a carrier.  
     
     
         3 . The method, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient contains 98.0% by weight of said carrier and 2.0% by weight of said composition.  
     
     
         4 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said polyphenolic is extracted from tealeaves.  
     
     
         5 . The method, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said polyphenolic is extracted from tealeaves.  
     
     
         6 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein theaflavin (TF1), theaflavin-3 gallate (TF2a), theaflavin-3′-gallate (TF2b), theaflavin-3,3′-digallate (TF-3), thearubigin, gallic acid and tannic acid are extracted from black tea.  
     
     
         7 . The method, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein theaflavin (TF1), theaflavin-3 gallate (TF2a), theaflavin-3′-gallate (TF2b), theaflavin-3,3′-digallate (TF-3), thearubigin, gallic acid and tannic acid are extracted from black tea.  
     
     
         8 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein (−)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (−)epigalloatechin (EGC), (−)epicatechin gallate (ECG), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (−)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and catechin are extracted in green tea.  
     
     
         9 . The method, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein (−)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (−)epigalloatechin (EGC), (−)epicatechin gallate (ECG), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (−)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and catechin are extracted in green tea.  
     
     
         10 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by ingestion.  
     
     
         11 . The method, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by ingestion.  
     
     
         12 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by inhalation.  
     
     
         13 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by inhalation.  
     
     
         14 . The method, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by inhalation.  
     
     
         15 . The method, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by injection.  
     
     
         16 . The method, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient is administered directly to poultry by injection.  
     
     
         17 . A medicament composition for preventing and treating Avian Influenza in a poultry, comprising an anti-avian influenza ingredient having a composition, containing polyphenolic, selected from the group consisting of theaflavin, theaflavin-3,3′-digallate, theaflavin-3-monogallate, theaflavin-3 gallate, theaflavin-3′-gallate, thearubigin, gallic acid, tannic acid, (−)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (−)epigalloatechin (EGC), (+)-epicatechin (EC), (−)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), and catechin.  
     
     
         18 . The medicament composition, as recited in  claim 17 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient includes said composition in combination with a carrier.  
     
     
         19 . The medicament composition, as recited in  claim 18 , wherein said anti-avian influenza ingredient contains 98.0% by weight of said carrier and 2.0% by weight of said composition.  
     
     
         20 . The medicament composition, as recited in  claim 19 , wherein said polyphenolic is extracted from tealeaves.
