Abstract

1. Milk powder for feeding animals, characterized in that it comprises, in addition to the nutritional elements, from 0.8 to 2% by weight of an additive, mixture constituted by about 40 to 85% by weight of citric acid and about 15 to 60% by weight of an alkaline hexametaphosphate.

Description

The present invention relates to a milk powder for forming a reconstituted milk especially for feeding young animals such as calves, the useful life of the reconstituted milk being clearly longer than it is for those marketed at present.
Since the breeding of dairy cattle is directed exclusively towards the production and marketing of milk, and since when breeding beef cattle, it is...... necessary, nevertheless, to supplement the milk diet J ' ' of the young animal, increasing use is being made of reconstituted milks in the form of a powder in which, certain important constituents of milk have been replaced. Although it may seem paradoxical, the use of such milks increases the economic profitability of cattle farms.
At each meal, the breeder has to mix a quantity of milk powder, which is determined as a function of the age and performance of the young animal, very often in relatively warm water, that is to say having a temperature of about 50°C? if the young animal does not consume all the milk immediately, the breeder must discard the remainder since the organoleptic qualities and the composition of the milk develop very rapidly in such a manner that the milk is rendered unsuitable for consumption. In fact, milk is, especially, an excellent culture medium.
Certainly, systems have already been designed which make it possible for the breeder not to prepare the milk - 3 at each meal. For example, there is an apparatus that prepares the milk automatically according to requirements, the young animals coming to feed when they wish.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a milk powder that, once it has been dissolved in water, makes it possible to form a reconstituted milk of which the organoleptic and bacteriological qualities remain in a satisfactory state for a relatively long time and which can therefore be consumed even when cold.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a milk powder which, if desired, can bs mixed in cold water.
The present invention provides a milk powder which contains, in addition to nutritional elements, from 0.8 to 2% by weight of an additive which comprises 40 to 85% by weight of citric acid and 15 to 60% by weight of an alkaline hexametaphosphate.
Preferably, the milk powder contains from 1 to 1.5% by weight of the additive.
Advantageously, the composition of the additive is approximately 70% by weight of citric acid and approximately 30% by weight of an alkaline hexametaphosphate. - 4 Preferably, the alkaline hexametaphosphate is sodium hexametaphosphate.
In another form of milk powder according to the invention, the additive comprises, additionally, carboxymethylcellulose.
In that case, the additive advantageously contains approximately from 40 to 60% by weight of carboxymethylcellulose, preferably approximately 50% by weight.
Advantageously, the additive consists of approximately 40% by weight of citric acid, approximately 40% by weight of carboxymethylcellulose and approximately 20% by weight of a hexametaphosphate.
The milk powder of the present invention can be dissolved in tepid or even cold water; if the additive contains carboxymethylcellulose, the powder is preferably dissolved in tepid water.
The milk reconstituted from the powder can in general be made available to the animals for at least 72 hours, that is to say three days, without causing any physiological disorder in young animals; this is an illustration of the good preservation qualities of the milk at room temperature in the open air.
The components of the additive may be incorporated in the milk powder separately or as a mixture.
The following Examples illustrate the composition and advantageous properties of milk powders according to the invention:53100 - 5 Example 1 Milk powder that is marketed under the trade name CREMO and incorporating an additive comprising 70% byweight of citric acid and 30% by weight of sodium hexametaphosphate is diluted in cold water. The concentration of the additive in the milk powder is 1.4% by weight.
The reconstituted milk obtained after that dilution has a concentration of approximately 125 g/litre of milk.
The reconstituted milk was left to stand in the open air at room temperature. The pH was measured for a period in excess of three days: the results are shown in Table I below: TABLET Time in hours 0 25 49 73 78 PH 6.4 6 .2 5 .7 5.3 5.2 The surprising result of this experiment is that no curdling was observed. In contrast, in traditional reconstituted milks or in acid reconstituted milks without casein, coagulation has taken place approximately 50 hours after their preparation. - 6 Example 2 The same milk powder as in the preceding Example is diluted in cold water, but the additive comprises 3o% by weight of citric acid, 50% by weight of carboxymethylcellulose and 20% by weight of sodium hexametaphosphate. The concentration of the additive in the milk powder is 1.2% by weight.
The reconstituted milk obtained after dilution has a concentration of approximately 100 g/litre of milk.
The reconstituted milk was left to stand in the open air at room temperature. The pH and acidity thereof was measured for a period in excess of three days; the results are shown in the Table II below: T A B L Ε II Time in hours 0 6 24 30 48 54 72 78 PH 6.5 6.5 6.3 5.9 5.2 5.1 4 .8 4.5 Acidity 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.5 8.1 9.0 10.2 11.2 The pH was measured using a pH meter; it shows the progress of the fermentation resulting from the bacterial flora contained in the milk.
The acidity, which is measured according to the D0RNIC method, provides a measure of the organoleptic - 7 qualities of the milk and, in the same way, of the action of the microorganisms on the fermentable components of the milk.
Just as in the preceding Example, it was 5 surprising to observe that no curdling took place, that is to say that no curd formed in the three days following the preparation of the reconstituted milk. In the case of a milk reconstituted according to the formula of Example 1, there was no curdling even after 96 hours after preparation.
The calves for slaugher to which these reconstituted milks were given consumed between 13 and 15 litres daily thereof. This consumption is of the same order of magnitude as that with customary reconstituted 2.5 milk, and may even be a little higher.
It may also be noted that a milk powder containing an additive according to the present invention may be diluted either in cold water or in tepid water, but in any case in water having a temperature which is 2oclearly lower than that recommended at present (generally from 45 to 50°C).
