Description

[0001] CAT FEED CONTAINING NANO MICROCRYSTALLINE CELLULOSE [0002]

The present invention relates to feed, and more particularly to cat food comprising nanomicrocrystalline cellulose.

As omnivorous animals, cats can accommodate all kinds of food. Typical cats feed contains mainly starch, meat or some amino acid ingredients. However, these common cat foods can occasionally cause anorexia in cats, and can even seriously cause indigestion and other diseases in cats.

In addition, when feeding cats, people can mix cat food with water, which can easily lead to severe softening or even dissolution in the water of cat food, and cats can not eat solid food. This will also cause cats to lose appetite.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a food which, in order to improve the appetite of pets, allows the food to retain moisture better and keep the shape of the food better when the food is soaked with water and improve its solubility.

According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a process for the production of flour 10-25 parts, milk 5-15 parts, egg whites 4-8 parts, glycerol 5-15 parts, arginine 1-3 parts, RADIX ACONITI 2- 4 parts, Chinese Angelica 2-5 parts, Baikal Skullcap 1-3 parts, sodium chloride 1-2 parts, nano microcrystalline cellulose 0.05-0.1 parts and water 20 parts , Adding flour, milk, egg whites, glycerol, arginine, RADIX ACONITI, Chinese Angelica, Baikal Skullcap and sodium chloride to form a solid mixture, and adding water to the solid mixture Adding the nanomicrocrystalline cellulose to the slurry mixture and evenly mixing and bringing the mixture into a predetermined shape; and cooling the slurry mixture at 50-70 ° C for 2-3 hoursBy not drying the mixture provides a cat food is prepared by forming a cat food.

The cat food provided by the present invention helps to keep moisture in the food and better maintain the shape of the food to ensure a higher appetite of the pet. In addition, the cat food provided by the present invention helps to improve digestion of cats to reduce diseases.

According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a cat food comprising the following components in the weight portion: flour 10-25 parts, milk 5-15 parts, egg whites 4-8 parts, glycerol 5-15 parts , Arginine 1-3 parts, RADIX ACONITI 2-4 parts, Chinese Angelica 2-5 parts, Baikal Skullcap 1-3 parts, Sodium chloride 1-2 parts, Nano 0.05-0.1 part of microcrystalline cellulose and 20 parts of water.

In the abovementioned raw materials, nanomicrocrystalline cellulose is one of microcrystalline cellulose, and the particle size range is 50-1000 nm. Nano microcrystalline cellulose belongs to non-nutrients, which can not be digested by the human body and can not provide energy to the human body. Therefore, the nanomicrocrystalline cellulose added in the present invention is not intended to provide nutrients for the human body.

However, nanomicrocrystalline cellulose has the function of perfecting the micro ecological balance of the field. Because the particle size of nanomicrocrystalline cellulose is small, its specific surface area is large and the hydrophilicity is stronger than the hydrophilic nature of common microcrystalline cellulose, so the moisture can be more easily locked. In addition, after the nanomicrocrystalline cellulose is combined with water and the above-mentioned mixture, a stable three-dimensional network crosslinked structure can be formed in the drying process to increase the viscosity to improve the morphological stability of the formed cat food, .

Cat food, for example, can be made into fish, balls or other forms to enhance the cats' eating or playing needs.

In addition, although nano-microcrystalline cellulose can not be digested by the human body, it is small in particle size, and thus the taste of the feed will not be affected by the addition of nano-microcrystalline cellulose. On the contrary, it tastes better and makes food denser so that pets like to feed better.

In general, the particle size of the nanomicrocrystalline cellulose is preferably 100-300 nm. Nano microcrystalline cellulose with particle size is a trade-off between cost and taste after several experiments.

Cat food can be prepared in the following manner.

First, flour, milk, egg whites, glycerol, arginine, RADIX ACONITI, Chinese Angelica, Baikal Skullcap and sodium chloride are evenly mixed according to certain ratios to form a solid mixture.

Next, water is added to the solid mixture, and the mixture is evenly mixed and placed for 3-5 hours to form the slurry mixture. It should be understood that layering can occur if the mixture is placed too long. In this case, the liquid portion of the upper layer can be directly discarded.

Nano microcrystalline cellulose is added to the slurry mixture, and the mixture is evenly mixed and made into a predetermined form. In general, shapes can be ball, stripe, or other shapes that are loved by cats. Because nanomicrocrystalline cellulose is added, the morphology can be better maintained.

Finally, the mixture is dried at 50-70 for 2-3 hours to form cat food. It is important to understand that too high a temperature can destroy nutrients in food and easily destroy nano-microcrystalline cellulose and other food components. Too low a temperature does not induce evaporation of water, and longer time is required.

From Table 1 to Table 3 above, we can see that the cats' behavior and behavior of the control groups 1-3 were not changed except for the general increase in weights with growth. In various embodiments of the invention, the cats' color of the cats begin to brighten after two months, and, in addition, in some embodiments, the weight of the cats is greatly increased, the behaviors become more energetic, It shows that the power of the body is richer. More clearly, after eating cat food for three months in the examples of the present invention, the weights of some groups of cats are greatly increased. In Examples 6-8, the uncolored colors of cats are brighter, In groups cats become more energetic because of the abundant physical force.

Although the changes observed in the above embodiments include subjective factors such as, for example, whether the colors are brightened, whether actions are lively, statistically compared to existing cat food, It should be understood that the cat food provided by the invention has certain advantages in providing nutrients and supplementing the physical strength.
