Definitions
- compositions for a treatment system for human foods and pet foods.
- Compositions can be specially designed to bring preservatives or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics in contact with bacteria.
- CPC cetylpyridinium chloride
- LAE lauric arginate
- Pet food is a specialty food for domesticated animals that is formulated according to their nutritional needs. Some type of extrusion is commonly used. It generally consists of meat, meat byproducts, cereals, greens, vitamins, and minerals. Biscuit type pieces are called “kibble”. To meet nutritional requirements, pet food manufacturers blend animal fats, e.g. chicken fat, etc., and meals with soy and wheat grains and vitamins and minerals. This yields a cheap, nutritious pellet that no one wants to eat.
- animal fats e.g. chicken fat, etc.
- Kibble generally contains about 10% moisture.
- dry meal is heated with steam, and moisture is added to approximately 25 wt % level; the wet meal is extruded under pressure and cut to size; the kibble is conveyed with air on to a dryer bed at approximately ⁇ 220° F.; the kibble are dried down to a moisture level of 6 to 8wt %; the kibble are sifted to remove broken and fines.
- the kibble may be sprayed sometimes with another wet coating, usually a liquid flavor (“palatant”) that is water-based. It is during drying and sifting steps that contamination where microbes like salmonella strains can be introduced, and this presents a serious problem. Anytime you introduce water/moisture, the probability of introducing pathogens is a concern.
- the instant invention solves the preservative problem without changing the process with adverse economic effects.
- the grains, meat, poultry parts, etc. are heated to 250 -260 degrees ° F. This step is designed to kill all the pathogens that likely arise from the poultry scraps that can contain salmonella . However, many manufacturers do not have good temperature control. Also, cross-contamination can occur once the kibble is placed into storage bins and dryers.
- the moisture level out of the extruder can be 20-25 wt %. After the drying step, the moisture level can be 8-10 wt %.
- the extruder is intended to be the kill step, however because of the moisture level there can be growth from cross contamination in the manufacturing facility.
- the normal manufacturing procedure is to coat the extruded kibble with fat and then a flavor coating (called a palatant) can be added by spraying.
- a flavor coating called a palatant
- Poultry fat is commonly used as a coating for kibble.
- shelf life of kibble is usually 1 to 11 ⁇ 2 years, however the shelf life of the palatant can be much shorter, e.g. possibly three months. If the kibble factory is contaminated with salmonella , the bacteria can fall into the production lines and get packaged into the kibble bags. Dogs are relatively resistant to salmonella and usually do not show signs of illness from eating contaminated kibble. But humans who handle the food or the dog can acquire the bacteria and get sick. This makes dry dog food a potentially hazardous product, one best kept away from people with weak immune systems such as young children and the elderly.
- This invention discloses the use of emulsifying agents and surfactants with or without preservatives to penetrate fat in both human and animal foods and to control the growth of salmonella and other pathogens therein.
- emulsifying agents/surfactants include sucrose monoesters of fatty acids, glycerol monoesters of fatty acids, and lecithin, for example.
- the instant invention demonstrates compositions that can penetrate fat that is used to coat pet food, e.g. dry kibble, etc., and reach pathogen within the coating of a kibble.
- the instant invention discloses a method to penetrate the fat coating on kibble to reach the Salmonella that is not adequately killed in the manufacturing process for kibble.
- compositions of the invention can also penetrate fat of products such as ground beef, or ground poultry.
- the instant invention discloses the use of emulsifying agents with or without other preservatives, such as, benzoates sorbates, nitrates, sulfites, lauric arginate, to penetrate fat in both human and animal foods and to control the growth of salmonella and other pathogens.
- emulsifying agents include 1) sucrose monoesters of fatty acids; 2) glycerol monoesters of fatty acids; and 3) lecithin.
- the method in the instant invention of treating human food, such as ground beef or ground turkey would entail coating the scraps of beef and turkey prior to a grinding step with the compositions of the instant invention, similar to how dry kibble is coated. This will assure that the distribution of the compositions is evenly distributed in the ground product but also be more effective than post adding the compositions after the grinding process because of the difficulty of reaching and evenly distributing the composition of the instant invention by post adding into the ground meat product.
- LAE lauric arginate
- emulsifiers e.g. glycerol monoesters
- the purpose of this invention is to present a composition for treatment of foods, e.g. human foods such as ground beef or ground turkey and pet foods such as kibble.
- the compositions are specially balanced to bring preservatives or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics in contact with bacteria. This system can be adjusted to maximize effectiveness depending on where and on what the preservatives or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics are to be used.
- ground beef or poultry for human consumption are usually chilled and have several months shelf life.
- the average shelf life is 1 year, and that it takes about 30 to 60 days from the time of manufacturing until the pet food reaches the consumer.
- a major pet food testing lab specifies only 0, 20, and 60 day recoveries.
- Advantages for dry pet food/kibble include but are not limited to: additives that are nutritious; additives that are GRAS; process cost that are minimized; additives that are inexpensive; additives are commercially available in large volumes from multiple sources; a process that is simple and does not require any additional expense of equipment; no need for additional energy costs.
- compositions of this invention comprise 1) one or more antimicrobial or one or more surfactants/emulsifiers with preservative characteristics, 2) one or more surfactants with an average HLB between 7 and 12 value to enable the preservative/antimicrobial agent to reach the bacteria on or within the food, 3) an aqueous vehicle to deliver the system ingredients, 4) optionally buffers to maintain a pH between about 2.0 to 7.0, 5) optionally a chelating agent, and 6) optionally enhancers/synergists to the preservative system.
- the surfactants in the compositions of this invention enhance the interaction of the composition with the bacteria by ensuring contact and by introducing moisture to activate the anti-microbials.
- this invention employs surfactants to emulsify small amounts of aqueous preservative and moisture into the fats and oils present in the food.
- Surfactants optimize the HLB to help the aqueous system containing the preservative, to either more effectively wet food surfaces or to penetrate into the oils and fats. Wetting of surfaces is best achieved with surfactants.
- Fats and oils in foods can be generally best be emulsified in aqueous solution using surfactants having an HLB somewhere between about 6 and 12.
- An oil in water emulsion is best formed with an emulsifier of HLB between about 12 and 16, while a water in oil emulsion is best formed with an emulsifier of HLB between about 3 and 7.0.
- hydrophobe chain length In addition to HLB, a second factor in choosing an emulsifier is the length of the hydrophobe chain. In general, longer fatty chains are generally more effective in penetrating fats and oils.
- the hydrophobe chain length should be between 12 and about 18 carbons, more preferably between about 16 and 18.
- a wetting agent type of surfactant is preferred for the aqueous preservative system.
- the HLB of the additive surfactant needs to be adjusted to bring the HLB of the complete antimicrobial system into the preferred HLB range for the application.
- Specific embodiments of claims disclose a method to penetrate the fat coating on kibble to reach Salmonella that is not adequately killed in the manufacturing process for kibble for up to 60 days.
- compositions of the instant invention can also penetrate fat and kill or inhibit pathogens in other types of fatty foods, such as, ground beef or ground poultry, for example.
- compositions of the instant invention prove to have inhibitor activity on Salmonella in chicken fat using an emulsifier with no reported antimicrobial activity, such as lecithin.
- compositions of the instant invention such as LAE-thymol, have inhibitory activity on Salmonella without an emulsifier or separate surfactant.
- GRAS generally regarded as safe or generally recognized as safe
- emulsifiers were examined as potential surfactants, penetrators, and/or solubilizers of chicken fat which is commonly used in the pet for industry to coat kibble, and chicken fat is where pathogen contamination in the manufacture of pet food/kibble has occurred.
- the instant invention has considered and evaluated sugar monoesters, glycerol monoesters, and lecithin as potential means of allowing preservatives, or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics to penetrate the chicken fat and kill pathogens.
- the first item was to find GRAS approved substances for human and pet/kibble feed that had a preserving ability to inhibit salmonella dosed into chicken fat up to 60 days under normal storage conditions.
- compositions described herein can be referred to a preservatives, antimicrobials, penetrating, emulsifiers, surfactants, co-surfactants, or compositions.
- Each of the compositions, when added to chicken fat provides the effect, when coated on a pet food or human food, of preventing growth of Salmonella sp over an extended period of time, for example 60 days. This effect may be termed alternatively, preservation or anti-microbial activity.
- compositions described herein are effective at reducing by about 99% the amount of Salmonella sp. present on kibble or raw meats when compared to kibble treated with a composition lacking a lecithin; a glycerol monoester of a fatty acid; a sugar monoester of a fatty acid; or a N ⁇ -(C 8 -C 18 ) acyl arginine alkyl (C 8 -C 18 ) ester salt for an extended period of time.
- the Examples and methods described herein refer to standards used in the industry for testing of food contamination. For example, pet food kibble is typically tested for a time period of between 0 and 60 days, and in particular 30 and 60 days.
- Human food testing varies, but can be anywhere from 1 day to 28 days depending upon the protocol.
- the extended period of time of the instant invention is a period of time greater than one day up to a period of time specified by any available testing protocol.
- the extended period of time may include 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 28 days, 30 days, 60 days, or 120 days, or any day in between 1 day and 120 days, for example, 3 days, 30 days, or 60 days.
- the antimicrobial or preservative agent chosen needs to be effective against a broad range of bacteria such as Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli, S. aureus, Clostridium, Campylobacter , and other pathogens found in food.
- the agents optionally incorporated into this invention include any food-safe, antimicrobial or preservative agent that is effective at controlling the target pathogens.
- Preferred preservatives include the salts of lauroyl or cocoyl ethyl ester of arginine (LAE or CAE).
- Preferred salts of LAE and CAE include those that are water-soluble like the hydrochloride, acetate, lactate, as well as those that can provide controlled release properties due to their limited aqueous solubility, such as thymol, octanoate, decanoate, laurate, cocoate, myristate, palmitate and stearate or other fatty acid salts.
- the preferred release salts with limited solubility can also help penetration into fats and oils and can prevent loss of activity over time.
- Other suitable preservatives include alcohol fatty esters such as glycerol monooctanoate, glycerol monodecanoate, glycerol monomyristate and glycerol monopalmitate.
- emulsifying agents and/or suitable hydrophobic surfactants disclosed in the instant invention helps to spread into the fat and reach bacteria deep within the fat.
- surfactants are less likely to help emulsify potassium benzoate or sorbate within the fat because of the water solubility and hydrophilic nature of these preservatives.
- the ingredients in the instant invention are themselves surfactants and together with the right surfactant system will readily spread with the target fats.
- preservatives can be used including in addition to the compositions described herein and include, but are not limited to, ascorbic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid, citric acid, erythorbic acid, lactic acid, sorbic acid, tartaric acid, propionic acid, and their sodium, potassium, ammonium and calcium salts. Additionally, effective preservation can be achieved using soluble nitrite, nitrate, sulfite, bisulfite, metabisulfite, dithionite, and biacetate salts. Additionally methyl, ethyl and propyl and butyl-p-hydroxy benzoate, methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl paraben can be used as preservatives.
- Lecithin (from the Greek lekithos, “egg yolk”) is a generic term to designate any group of yellow-brownish fatty substances occurring in animal and plant tissues, which are amphiphilic—they attract both water and fatty substances (and so are both hydrophilic and lipophilic), and are used for smoothing food textures, dissolving powders (emulsifying), homogenizing liquid mixtures, and repelling sticking materials.
- Lecithins are mixtures of glycerophospholipids including phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidic acid.
- Lecithin has emulsification and lubricant properties, and is a surfactant. It can be totally metabolized (see Inositol) by humans, so is well tolerated by humans and nontoxic when ingested; some other emulsifiers can only be excreted via the kidneys.
- ADM refers to Archer Daniels Midland
- the major components of commercial soybean-derived lecithin are: 33-35% Soybean oil; 20-21% Inositol phosphatides; 19-21% Phosphatidylcholine; 8-20% Phosphatidylethanolamine; 5-11% Other phosphatides; 5% Free carbohydrates; 2-5% Sterols; 1% Moisture.
- Lecithin is used for applications in human food, animal feed, pharmaceuticals, paints, and other industrial applications. In animal feed, it enriches fat and protein and improves palletization. The nontoxicity of lecithin leads to its use with food, as an additive or in food preparation. It is used commercially in foods requiring a natural emulsifier or lubricant. Lecithin is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for human consumption with the status “generally recognized as safe” or “GRAS”. Lecithin is admitted by the EU as a food additive, designated as E322. As an emulsifier, soy lecithin is used in food applications as an aerating agent, viscosity modifier, dispersant and lubricant.
- an emulsion is a suspension of small droplets of one liquid in another liquid with which it is incapable of mixing.
- Oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) are the two primary types of emulsions.
- Lecithin's molecular structure makes it an effective emulsifier for the interaction of water and oil.
- Phospholipids, the major component of lecithin are partly hydrophilic (attracted to water) and partly hydrophobic (repelled from water). It is lecithin's ability to simultaneously interact with both oil and water that makes it such an effective and stable emulsifier.
- an emulsifier such as lecithin acts to help maintain a stable emulsion between two unmixable liquids.
- the emulsifier decreases the surface tension between the two liquids and allows them to mix and form a stable, heterogeneous dispersion.
- Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance is an index of the predicted preference of an emulsifier for oil or water—the higher the HLB, the more hydrophilic the molecule; the lower the HLB, the more hydrophobic the molecule.
- typical usage levels of lecithin in an emulsion system are: 1-5% of the fat for W/O; 5-10% of the fat for O/W. The amount of lecithin used is dependent upon factors such as the pH, the inclusion of proteins, and the salt concentration.
- Sugar esters have a wide variety of applications. Mixtures of regioisomers, as well as mono-, di- and tri-esters are used as emulsifiers, whose resulting physicochemical properties depend on the average degree of substitution and fatty acid chain length. They are used as non-ionic surfactants, bleaching boosters and food additives. Sucrose esters of fatty acids with a low degree of substitution can be used as food and cosmetic emulsifiers.
- suitable surfactants for use in the provided compositions include as non-ionic surfactants sugar derived surfactants, particularly fatty acid esters of sugars and sugar derivatives.
- sugar fatty acid esters include fatty acid esters of sucrose, glucose, maltose and other sugars, esterified to fatty acids of varying lengths (e.g., varying numbers of carbons).
- the fatty acids typically have carbon chains between 8 and 28 carbons in length, and typically between 8 and 20, or between 8 and 18 or between 12 and 18, such as, but not limited to, stearic acid (18 carbons), oleic acid (18:1 carbons), palmitic acid (16 carbons), myristic acid (14 carbons) and lauric acid (12 carbons).
- the sugar ester surfactants are sucrose ester surfactants, typically sucrose fatty acid ester surfactants.
- a preferred sugar fatty acid ester is sugar C8-C18 fatty acid ester.
- sucrose fatty acid ester surfactants contain one or more sucrose fatty acid esters, which are non-ionic surfactants that contain sucrose in the hydrophilic portions and fatty acids in the hydrophobic portions.
- the sucrose fatty acid esters can be made by well-known methods (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos: 3,480,616; 3,644,333; 3,714,144; 4,710,567; 4,898,935; 4,996,309; 4,995,911; 5,011,922; and 5,017,697 and International Patent Application Publication No. WO 2007/082149), typically in an esterification reaction as described below.
- the esterification reaction can join the sucrose molecule to one fatty acid molecule, or can join it to a plurality of fatty acid molecules, producing different degrees of esterification, e.g., mono-, di-, tri- and poly- (up to octa-) fatty acid esters, but primarily mono-, di-, and/or tri-esters.
- the relative amounts of mono- di- tri- and/or poly-esters can depend on reaction conditions.
- the ester part could be from C 8 -C 18 saturated hydrocarbon, however the C 12 has been consistently shown to be the optimal choice, since when esterifying glycerin it is possible to obtain di- and tri-esters as well as the monoester. Therefore, in order to achieve the best antibacterial effect, the monoester of monolaurin should be greater or equal to 70 wt % of the total ester content the higher being the better.

- SL and ML are both surfactants with inhibitory characteristics.
- ML is known to need solubilization in an aqueous system, so it was added as a powder after the CF was added to aid in its solubilization.
- Sample #3 was prepared by making an emulsion consisting of 7 g of ADM PerformixTM E lecithin, 50 g of distilled water (DW), 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”), and 0.1 g of LAE-HCl preservative.

- Sample #4 was by making an emulsion consisting of 7 g of ADM YelpinTM1018 lecithin added to 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”) by vigorous mixing, then 50 g of distilled water (DW) was added with continued stirring. No additional surfactants or preservatives were added.
- Sample #5 was prepared w/o lecithin by dissolving LAE-thymol into 50 g of DW with vigorous mixing, and then the DW+LAE-thymol was added to 50 g of chicken fat with vigorous mixing.
- LAE-thymol is a controlled release salt of LAE with low water solubility as compared to LAE-HCl.
- Table 1 summarizes the compositions tested. Each sample contained 50 g chicken fat and 50 g DW; 10 g of each sample was applied to 100 g kibble. Testing and storage was at RT. Samples of coated kibble were kept in sealed plastic bags after applying to the kibble.

Samples also containing only lecithin also gave significant log reductions (sample #4). It is very advantageous that all ingredients are GRAS approved for food, and they all have nutritional value as food additives. It is expected that there will be no apparent taste problems at the inventive usage levels.
- Samples 1-5 showed log reductions after 30 days.
- Sample #1 showed no log reduction after 60 days, using only an emulsifier with an HLB of 7. (There was also visual growth noted after 60 days).
- Sample #4 using only an emulsifier with an HLB of 11 gave increased log reduction after 60 days.
- Sample # 2 with an emulsifier with an HLB of 12 and two GRAS surfactants with inhibitory characteristics gave an increased log reduction after 60 days, while sample #3 with the same emulsifier as sample #2 but with a food preservative gave reduced log reduction after 60 days.
- Sample #5 with no emulsifier and no surfactants but with the salt LAE-thymol, gave an increased log reduction after 60 days. After 120 days there was no mold evident in Sample #3 of coated kibble in a sealed plastic bag using a combination of sucrose laurate and monolaurin emulsified with lecithin.
Abstract
Description
- This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Pat. App. No. 62/625139, filed on Feb. 1, 2018, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
- The purpose of this invention is to present a composition for a treatment system for human foods and pet foods. Compositions can be specially designed to bring preservatives or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics in contact with bacteria.
- It is well known that there have been serious bacterial contamination issues in the recent past in both human food and companion pet food. It would be desirable to prevent bacterial contamination in the fatty sections of dry pet foods and fatty human food. Salmonella bacteria live in the intestines, both human and animal, and meat may become contaminated if animal feces spreads during the butchering process. Seafood, fruits and vegetables can also become tainted by contaminated water. It is well known that there have been serious bacterial contamination issues in the recent past in both human food and companion pet food. However, there are no published methods found to reach commonly found bacteria, e.g. salmonella, etc. in the fat portions of foods utilizing commonly used preservatives.
- One reason is that consumers are aware of non-green and natural additives in food, and since the invention of the interne, more people are educated about chemicals used to process their foods that might be retained.
- In Pohlman, F. et al., Meat Sci. 2002 Apr; 60(4): 349-56, 0.5% cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) was applied to beef trimmings either aerobically or under vacuum before grinding. Beef trimmings were inoculated with Salmonella typhimurium then treated with CPC in vacuum or aerobic conditions.
- In Chen, X. et al., J Food Prot. 2014 Nov; 77(11): 1882-8, ground chicken was reported to likely have higher microbiological loads than whole carcasses and parts. Five treatments (0.003% chlorine, 0.07 and 0.1% peracetic acid [PAA], and 0.35 and 0.6% cetylpyridinium chloride [CPC]) were evaluated. Results from this study indicated that using PAA as an antimicrobial agent in a postchill decontamination tank to treat ground poultry parts is effective for the reduction of Salmonella.
- In Sharma, C. et al., the authors report the efficacy of lauric arginate (LAE) on Salmonella survivability in ground chicken containing 9.8% fat was determined under refrigerated storage and concluded that, although LAE possesses strong inhibitory (P<0.05) effect against Salmonella in suspension in 0.1% peptone water, no inhibitory (P>0.05) effect on growth of Salmonella was observed in ground chicken at the currently approved levels of 200 ppm.
- Pet food is a specialty food for domesticated animals that is formulated according to their nutritional needs. Some type of extrusion is commonly used. It generally consists of meat, meat byproducts, cereals, greens, vitamins, and minerals. Biscuit type pieces are called “kibble”. To meet nutritional requirements, pet food manufacturers blend animal fats, e.g. chicken fat, etc., and meals with soy and wheat grains and vitamins and minerals. This yields a cheap, nutritious pellet that no one wants to eat.
- The primary ingredients in pet food are byproducts of meat, poultry, and seafood, food feed grains, and soybean meal. Other ingredients may include salt, preservatives, stabilizers, and chilling agents. Kibble generally contains about 10% moisture. The following is the current general method of manufacturing dry pet food (kibble): dry meal is heated with steam, and moisture is added to approximately 25 wt % level; the wet meal is extruded under pressure and cut to size; the kibble is conveyed with air on to a dryer bed at approximately <220° F.; the kibble are dried down to a moisture level of 6 to 8wt %; the kibble are sifted to remove broken and fines. Also, the kibble may be sprayed sometimes with another wet coating, usually a liquid flavor (“palatant”) that is water-based. It is during drying and sifting steps that contamination where microbes like salmonella strains can be introduced, and this presents a serious problem. Anytime you introduce water/moisture, the probability of introducing pathogens is a concern. The instant invention solves the preservative problem without changing the process with adverse economic effects. The grains, meat, poultry parts, etc. are heated to 250 -260 degrees ° F. This step is designed to kill all the pathogens that likely arise from the poultry scraps that can contain salmonella. However, many manufacturers do not have good temperature control. Also, cross-contamination can occur once the kibble is placed into storage bins and dryers. The moisture level out of the extruder can be 20-25 wt %. After the drying step, the moisture level can be 8-10 wt %. The extruder is intended to be the kill step, however because of the moisture level there can be growth from cross contamination in the manufacturing facility. The normal manufacturing procedure is to coat the extruded kibble with fat and then a flavor coating (called a palatant) can be added by spraying. Poultry fat is commonly used as a coating for kibble.
- Shelf life of kibble is usually 1 to 1½ years, however the shelf life of the palatant can be much shorter, e.g. possibly three months. If the kibble factory is contaminated with salmonella, the bacteria can fall into the production lines and get packaged into the kibble bags. Dogs are relatively resistant to salmonella and usually do not show signs of illness from eating contaminated kibble. But humans who handle the food or the dog can acquire the bacteria and get sick. This makes dry dog food a potentially hazardous product, one best kept away from people with weak immune systems such as young children and the elderly.
- Present kibble products are commonly preserved with potassium benzoate, sorbate or similar. These are water soluble and do not have the ability to penetrate fat and reach any bacteria hiding inside.
- Human infections of salmonella have been traced back to contaminated feed. From the CDC website, “Multistate Outbreak of Salmonella Schwarzengrund Infections Linked to Dry Pet Food (FINAL UPDATE)” Posted Sep. 4, 2007, the CDC is collaborating with public health officials in Pennsylvania and other state health departments and the US FDA to investigate a multistate outbreak of Salmonella serotype Schwarzengrund infections in humans.
- In. Maciorowski, K. et al., World's Poultry Science Journal, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2004 , pp. 446-457, the authors report that transmission of food-poisoning salmonellae in the poultry industry is often associated with a contaminated feed supply.
- This invention discloses the use of emulsifying agents and surfactants with or without preservatives to penetrate fat in both human and animal foods and to control the growth of salmonella and other pathogens therein. These emulsifying agents/surfactants include sucrose monoesters of fatty acids, glycerol monoesters of fatty acids, and lecithin, for example.
- The instant invention demonstrates compositions that can penetrate fat that is used to coat pet food, e.g. dry kibble, etc., and reach pathogen within the coating of a kibble. The instant invention discloses a method to penetrate the fat coating on kibble to reach the Salmonella that is not adequately killed in the manufacturing process for kibble.
- The compositions of the invention can also penetrate fat of products such as ground beef, or ground poultry. The instant invention discloses the use of emulsifying agents with or without other preservatives, such as, benzoates sorbates, nitrates, sulfites, lauric arginate, to penetrate fat in both human and animal foods and to control the growth of salmonella and other pathogens. These emulsifying agents include 1) sucrose monoesters of fatty acids; 2) glycerol monoesters of fatty acids; and 3) lecithin.
- The method in the instant invention of treating human food, such as ground beef or ground turkey, would entail coating the scraps of beef and turkey prior to a grinding step with the compositions of the instant invention, similar to how dry kibble is coated. This will assure that the distribution of the compositions is evenly distributed in the ground product but also be more effective than post adding the compositions after the grinding process because of the difficulty of reaching and evenly distributing the composition of the instant invention by post adding into the ground meat product.
- The inventors have several patents and patent applications that disclose green and natural GRAS food preservatives, lauric arginate (LAE), as well as synergies of LAE with emulsifiers, e.g. glycerol monoesters, including U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,734,879; 9,271,495; 8,834,857, 8,926,997, PCT/US2014/051293, WO 2016/024999 the contents of which are all incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- The purpose of this invention is to present a composition for treatment of foods, e.g. human foods such as ground beef or ground turkey and pet foods such as kibble. The compositions are specially balanced to bring preservatives or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics in contact with bacteria. This system can be adjusted to maximize effectiveness depending on where and on what the preservatives or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics are to be used.
- For purposes of this invention, it is assumed that ground beef or poultry for human consumption are usually chilled and have several months shelf life. For dry pet food/kibble, the average shelf life is 1 year, and that it takes about 30 to 60 days from the time of manufacturing until the pet food reaches the consumer. In order to screen the final product for contamination, a major pet food testing lab specifies only 0, 20, and 60 day recoveries.
- Advantages for dry pet food/kibble include but are not limited to: additives that are nutritious; additives that are GRAS; process cost that are minimized; additives that are inexpensive; additives are commercially available in large volumes from multiple sources; a process that is simple and does not require any additional expense of equipment; no need for additional energy costs.
- Compositions of this invention comprise 1) one or more antimicrobial or one or more surfactants/emulsifiers with preservative characteristics, 2) one or more surfactants with an average HLB between 7 and 12 value to enable the preservative/antimicrobial agent to reach the bacteria on or within the food, 3) an aqueous vehicle to deliver the system ingredients, 4) optionally buffers to maintain a pH between about 2.0 to 7.0, 5) optionally a chelating agent, and 6) optionally enhancers/synergists to the preservative system.
- As noted above, a particularly serious problem to be dealt with in preserving foods is due to the penetration of fats and oils with pathogenic bacteria, such as Salmonella. In many cases bacteria trapped in fats and oils cannot be reached using preservatives alone. Furthermore, even if an antimicrobial can reach the target bacteria, kill is not generally achieved in the absence of any water because the bacteria often become dormant and cannot metabolize the antimicrobial making it ineffective.
- Accordingly, the surfactants in the compositions of this invention enhance the interaction of the composition with the bacteria by ensuring contact and by introducing moisture to activate the anti-microbials. In order to decontaminate oils and fats on or within foods, this invention employs surfactants to emulsify small amounts of aqueous preservative and moisture into the fats and oils present in the food.
- Surfactants optimize the HLB to help the aqueous system containing the preservative, to either more effectively wet food surfaces or to penetrate into the oils and fats. Wetting of surfaces is best achieved with surfactants.
- Fats and oils in foods can be generally best be emulsified in aqueous solution using surfactants having an HLB somewhere between about 6 and 12. An oil in water emulsion is best formed with an emulsifier of HLB between about 12 and 16, while a water in oil emulsion is best formed with an emulsifier of HLB between about 3 and 7.0.
- In addition to HLB, a second factor in choosing an emulsifier is the length of the hydrophobe chain. In general, longer fatty chains are generally more effective in penetrating fats and oils. The hydrophobe chain length should be between 12 and about 18 carbons, more preferably between about 16 and 18.
- Where bacteria are more likely to be located on the outside of food surfaces, a wetting agent type of surfactant is preferred for the aqueous preservative system. There are a broad range of surfactants with reasonably good wetting properties, with an HLB, between about 6 and about 12.
- If the surfactants are themselves preservatives, the HLB of the additive surfactant needs to be adjusted to bring the HLB of the complete antimicrobial system into the preferred HLB range for the application.
- Specific embodiments of claims disclose a method to penetrate the fat coating on kibble to reach Salmonella that is not adequately killed in the manufacturing process for kibble for up to 60 days.
- Even more specifically this invention also discloses that the compositions of the instant invention can also penetrate fat and kill or inhibit pathogens in other types of fatty foods, such as, ground beef or ground poultry, for example.
- In yet another embodiment, some compositions of the instant invention prove to have inhibitor activity on Salmonella in chicken fat using an emulsifier with no reported antimicrobial activity, such as lecithin.
- In yet another embodiment, some compositions of the instant invention, such as LAE-thymol, have inhibitory activity on Salmonella without an emulsifier or separate surfactant.
- Numerous GRAS (generally regarded as safe or generally recognized as safe) emulsifiers were examined as potential surfactants, penetrators, and/or solubilizers of chicken fat which is commonly used in the pet for industry to coat kibble, and chicken fat is where pathogen contamination in the manufacture of pet food/kibble has occurred. The instant invention has considered and evaluated sugar monoesters, glycerol monoesters, and lecithin as potential means of allowing preservatives, or other ingredients that have inhibitory characteristics to penetrate the chicken fat and kill pathogens.
- It was determined to utilize only GRAS approved ingredients and to minimize the number of processing steps, so that any new innovations would not be prohibited due to government regulations or due to increasing the processing costs associated with what the industry is presently doing.
- The first item was to find GRAS approved substances for human and pet/kibble feed that had a preserving ability to inhibit salmonella dosed into chicken fat up to 60 days under normal storage conditions.
- The compositions described herein can be referred to a preservatives, antimicrobials, penetrating, emulsifiers, surfactants, co-surfactants, or compositions. Each of the compositions, when added to chicken fat provides the effect, when coated on a pet food or human food, of preventing growth of Salmonella sp over an extended period of time, for example 60 days. This effect may be termed alternatively, preservation or anti-microbial activity.
- The compositions described herein are effective at reducing by about 99% the amount of Salmonella sp. present on kibble or raw meats when compared to kibble treated with a composition lacking a lecithin; a glycerol monoester of a fatty acid; a sugar monoester of a fatty acid; or a Nα-(C8-C18) acyl arginine alkyl (C8-C18) ester salt for an extended period of time. The Examples and methods described herein refer to standards used in the industry for testing of food contamination. For example, pet food kibble is typically tested for a time period of between 0 and 60 days, and in particular 30 and 60 days. Human food testing varies, but can be anywhere from 1 day to 28 days depending upon the protocol. The extended period of time of the instant invention is a period of time greater than one day up to a period of time specified by any available testing protocol. The extended period of time may include 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 28 days, 30 days, 60 days, or 120 days, or any day in between 1 day and 120 days, for example, 3 days, 30 days, or 60 days.
- The antimicrobial or preservative agent chosen needs to be effective against a broad range of bacteria such as Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli, S. aureus, Clostridium, Campylobacter, and other pathogens found in food. The agents optionally incorporated into this invention include any food-safe, antimicrobial or preservative agent that is effective at controlling the target pathogens.
- Preferred preservatives include the salts of lauroyl or cocoyl ethyl ester of arginine (LAE or CAE). Preferred salts of LAE and CAE include those that are water-soluble like the hydrochloride, acetate, lactate, as well as those that can provide controlled release properties due to their limited aqueous solubility, such as thymol, octanoate, decanoate, laurate, cocoate, myristate, palmitate and stearate or other fatty acid salts. The preferred release salts with limited solubility can also help penetration into fats and oils and can prevent loss of activity over time. Other suitable preservatives include alcohol fatty esters such as glycerol monooctanoate, glycerol monodecanoate, glycerol monomyristate and glycerol monopalmitate.
- In the presence of fat, combining low water soluble salts with controlled release properties of LAE or CAE with emulsifying agents and/or suitable hydrophobic surfactants disclosed in the instant invention helps to spread into the fat and reach bacteria deep within the fat. These surfactants are less likely to help emulsify potassium benzoate or sorbate within the fat because of the water solubility and hydrophilic nature of these preservatives. The ingredients in the instant invention are themselves surfactants and together with the right surfactant system will readily spread with the target fats.
- Furthermore, other conventional preservatives can be used including in addition to the compositions described herein and include, but are not limited to, ascorbic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid, citric acid, erythorbic acid, lactic acid, sorbic acid, tartaric acid, propionic acid, and their sodium, potassium, ammonium and calcium salts. Additionally, effective preservation can be achieved using soluble nitrite, nitrate, sulfite, bisulfite, metabisulfite, dithionite, and biacetate salts. Additionally methyl, ethyl and propyl and butyl-p-hydroxy benzoate, methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl paraben can be used as preservatives.
- Lecithin (from the Greek lekithos, “egg yolk”) is a generic term to designate any group of yellow-brownish fatty substances occurring in animal and plant tissues, which are amphiphilic—they attract both water and fatty substances (and so are both hydrophilic and lipophilic), and are used for smoothing food textures, dissolving powders (emulsifying), homogenizing liquid mixtures, and repelling sticking materials. Lecithins are mixtures of glycerophospholipids including phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidic acid.
- Lecithin has emulsification and lubricant properties, and is a surfactant. It can be totally metabolized (see Inositol) by humans, so is well tolerated by humans and nontoxic when ingested; some other emulsifiers can only be excreted via the kidneys.
- According to ADM (ADM refers to Archer Daniels Midland), the major components of commercial soybean-derived lecithin are: 33-35% Soybean oil; 20-21% Inositol phosphatides; 19-21% Phosphatidylcholine; 8-20% Phosphatidylethanolamine; 5-11% Other phosphatides; 5% Free carbohydrates; 2-5% Sterols; 1% Moisture.
- Lecithin is used for applications in human food, animal feed, pharmaceuticals, paints, and other industrial applications. In animal feed, it enriches fat and protein and improves palletization. The nontoxicity of lecithin leads to its use with food, as an additive or in food preparation. It is used commercially in foods requiring a natural emulsifier or lubricant. Lecithin is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for human consumption with the status “generally recognized as safe” or “GRAS”. Lecithin is admitted by the EU as a food additive, designated as E322. As an emulsifier, soy lecithin is used in food applications as an aerating agent, viscosity modifier, dispersant and lubricant.
- Typically, an emulsion is a suspension of small droplets of one liquid in another liquid with which it is incapable of mixing. Oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) are the two primary types of emulsions. Lecithin's molecular structure makes it an effective emulsifier for the interaction of water and oil. Phospholipids, the major component of lecithin, are partly hydrophilic (attracted to water) and partly hydrophobic (repelled from water). It is lecithin's ability to simultaneously interact with both oil and water that makes it such an effective and stable emulsifier. When introduced into a system, an emulsifier such as lecithin acts to help maintain a stable emulsion between two unmixable liquids. The emulsifier decreases the surface tension between the two liquids and allows them to mix and form a stable, heterogeneous dispersion.
- Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance or “HLB” is an index of the predicted preference of an emulsifier for oil or water—the higher the HLB, the more hydrophilic the molecule; the lower the HLB, the more hydrophobic the molecule. According to ADM, typical usage levels of lecithin in an emulsion system are: 1-5% of the fat for W/O; 5-10% of the fat for O/W. The amount of lecithin used is dependent upon factors such as the pH, the inclusion of proteins, and the salt concentration.
- Sugar esters have a wide variety of applications. Mixtures of regioisomers, as well as mono-, di- and tri-esters are used as emulsifiers, whose resulting physicochemical properties depend on the average degree of substitution and fatty acid chain length. They are used as non-ionic surfactants, bleaching boosters and food additives. Sucrose esters of fatty acids with a low degree of substitution can be used as food and cosmetic emulsifiers.
- Particular examples of suitable surfactants for use in the provided compositions include as non-ionic surfactants sugar derived surfactants, particularly fatty acid esters of sugars and sugar derivatives. For examples, sugar fatty acid esters include fatty acid esters of sucrose, glucose, maltose and other sugars, esterified to fatty acids of varying lengths (e.g., varying numbers of carbons). The fatty acids typically have carbon chains between 8 and 28 carbons in length, and typically between 8 and 20, or between 8 and 18 or between 12 and 18, such as, but not limited to, stearic acid (18 carbons), oleic acid (18:1 carbons), palmitic acid (16 carbons), myristic acid (14 carbons) and lauric acid (12 carbons). Typically, the sugar ester surfactants are sucrose ester surfactants, typically sucrose fatty acid ester surfactants. A preferred sugar fatty acid ester is sugar C8-C18 fatty acid ester.
- Sucrose fatty acid ester surfactants contain one or more sucrose fatty acid esters, which are non-ionic surfactants that contain sucrose in the hydrophilic portions and fatty acids in the hydrophobic portions. The sucrose fatty acid esters can be made by well-known methods (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos: 3,480,616; 3,644,333; 3,714,144; 4,710,567; 4,898,935; 4,996,309; 4,995,911; 5,011,922; and 5,017,697 and International Patent Application Publication No. WO 2007/082149), typically in an esterification reaction as described below.
- Because sucrose contains eight hydroxy (OH) groups, the esterification reaction can join the sucrose molecule to one fatty acid molecule, or can join it to a plurality of fatty acid molecules, producing different degrees of esterification, e.g., mono-, di-, tri- and poly- (up to octa-) fatty acid esters, but primarily mono-, di-, and/or tri-esters. The relative amounts of mono- di- tri- and/or poly-esters can depend on reaction conditions.
- The fatty acid in the sucrose fatty acid ester can be any fatty acid, and can contain between 4 and 28 carbon atoms, typically between 8 and 28 carbon atoms, and typically between 8 and 25 carbon atoms, such as between 8 and 18 carbon atoms. The fatty acid can be synthetic or naturally occurring, and include linear or branched fatty acids. The fatty acids include, but are not limited to, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, caproic acid, capric acid, decanoic acid and pelargonic acid. The more preferred sugar ester of this invention is sucrose monolaurate (“SL”). The sugar fatty acid esters used in the data generation for this invention were supplied by Mitsubishi Kagaku Foods Corporation. The SL used was Ryoto Sugar Ester L-1695 at 80% monoester. For purposes of this disclosure, “SL types” refers to sucrose fatty acid ester surfactants.
- To optimize the overall desired properties, the monoester of sucrose should be greater than or equal to 70 wt % of total ester content, the higher the better
- US patents (U.S. Pat. No. 8,193,244B1 and 9,023,891 B2) disclose the use of monoglycerides consisting of those esters formed from saturated fatty acids having from 6 to 14 carbon atoms for their spermicidal, antimicrobial and cytocidal activity in uses such as food preservatives, medical, personal care and hygiene, cosmetics, medical, and related applications. The object of these previous inventions is the provision of an enhanced combination of Nα-(C8 to C16) alkanoyl dibasic amino acid (C1 to C12) alkyl ester salts and (C8-C16) fatty acid monoglycerol esters as the basis for antimicrobial compositions and preservatives. Specifically, the preferred monoester in the inventors' previous patents is glycerol monolaurate (Monolaurin or “ML”). U.S. Pat. Nos. 8, 193,244B1 and 9,023,891 B2 are included in this application in their entirety.
- There are two factors to consider when choosing the glycerol monoester of a fatty acid. The ester part could be from C8-C18 saturated hydrocarbon, however the C12 has been consistently shown to be the optimal choice, since when esterifying glycerin it is possible to obtain di- and tri-esters as well as the monoester. Therefore, in order to achieve the best antibacterial effect, the monoester of monolaurin should be greater or equal to 70 wt % of the total ester content the higher being the better.
- Therefore the two GRAS approved food additives that were evaluated in the instant invention, 1) glycerol mono-fatty acid. esters (C8-C18), e.g. monolaurin (“ML”), and 2) sucrose mono-fatty esters (C8-C18), e.g. sucrose laurate (“SL”), sucrose myristate, sucrose palmitate, or sucrose stearate, are well described in the literature.
- The amount of glycerol mono- fatty acid esters (C8-C18) can range from about 0.01 to about 7.5 wt % added to the kibble. The preferred amount of glycerol mono-fatty acid. esters (C8-C18) an range from about 0.02 to about 5.0 wt % added to the kibble. The most preferred amount of glycerol mono-fatty acid esters (C8-C18) can range from 0.04 to about 2.5 wt % added to the kibble. The most preferred of the C8-C18 monoesters of glycerol is monolaurin (“ML”). The amount of the C8-C18 monoesters of sucrose can be from about 0.02 to about 15.0 wt % added to the kibble. The preferred amount of the C8-C18 monoesters of sucrose can be from about 0.04 to about 10 wt % added to the kibble. The most preferred amount of the C8-C18 monoesters of sucrose can be from about 0.08 to about 7.5 wt % added to the kibble. The most preferred of the C8-C18 monoesters of sucrose is sucrose laurate. The amount of lecithin can range from about 0.05 to about 30.0 wt %, added to the kibble. The preferred amount of lecithin can range from about 0.1 to about 20.0 wt % added to the kibble. The most preferred amount of lecithin can range from about 0.15 to about 15.0 wt %, added to the kibble.
- The amount of the Nα-(C8-C18) acyl arginine alkyl (C1-C8) ester can range from about 0.002 to about 4.0 wt % added to the kibble.

The ground beef or poultry exhibits amounts of Salmonella sp. present in the ground beef or poultry reduced by about 99% for at least 3 days post coating when compared to raw beef or poultry coated with a composition lacking one of (i)-(iv).
- Each of compositions (i)-(iv) used to treat raw beef or poultry may further include buffers to maintain pH of less than 7 or a chelant, such as EDTA. In some cases, the glycerol monoester of composition (ii) is monolaurin and the sugar monoester of composition (ii) is sucrose laurate; or the Nα-(C8-C18) acyl arginine alkyl (C1-C8) ester of composition (iii) is LAE-HCl.
- The following examples are set forth to assist in understanding the invention and should not, of course, be construed as specifically limiting the invention described and claimed herein. Such variations of the invention, including the substitution of all equivalents now known or later developed, which would be within the purview of those skilled in the art, and changes in formulation or minor changes in experimental design, are to be considered to fall within the scope of the invention incorporated herein.
- The following abbreviations may be found throughout the Examples. “LAE HCL” refers to Nα C8-C16 alkanoyl-L di-basic amino acid (C1-C4) alkyl ester being Nα-lauroyl-L-arginine-ethyl ester HCL salt. “ML” refers to monolaurin. “SL” refers to sucrose laurate. “DW” refers to distilled water. “CF” refers to chicken fat. ADM refers to Archer Daniels Midland. “Emulsifier” can be used interchangeably with “lecithin” or any of the tradenames: Ultralec® F, Performix™ E, or Yelpin™1018. RT refers to room temperature.
- Control consisting of 50 g of distilled water (DW) while vigorously stirring and 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”; for example as sold by AFB International, 3 Research Park Drive, St. Charles, Mo. 63304).
- Sample #1 was prepared by making an emulsion consisting of adding 7 g of ADM Ultralec® F lecithin to 50 g of distilled water (DW), and then adding 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”) while vigorously stirring. Total 50 g CF+50 g DW+7 g emulsifier=107 g. This emulsion was clear after seven days at RT.
- Sample#2 was prepared by making an emulsion consisting of adding 7 g of ADM Performix™ E lecithin and 1.0 g of sucrose laurate (“SL”) to 50 g of distilled water (DW) while vigorously stirring, then 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”) was added to the mix with continued stirring, then 0.5 g of monolaurin (“ML”) was added to the emulsion with continued stirring. For the sake of this invention, both ML and SL are defined as “actives”. It can be appreciated that SL and ML are both surfactants with inhibitory characteristics. ML is known to need solubilization in an aqueous system, so it was added as a powder after the CF was added to aid in its solubilization. This emulsion was clear after seven days at RT. In the instant invention, SL acts as a solubilizer to the ML. Total “actives” in sample #2 are 1.5 g. Sample #2 consists of 50 g CF+50 g DW+7 g ADM Performix™ E emulsifier+1.5 gm actives=108.5 g; 1.5 g actives/108.5 g=0.014 or 1.4 wt % actives; 10 g emulsion coated onto 100 g kibble=>10 g×1.4 wt %/100 g kibble=0.14 g total actives/100 g kibble or 1400 ppm of actives.
- Sample #3 was prepared by making an emulsion consisting of 7 g of ADM Performix™ E lecithin, 50 g of distilled water (DW), 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”), and 0.1 g of LAE-HCl preservative. The LAE-HCl was dissolved into the DW, and separately the lecithin was added to the chicken fat, then both were added together by vigorous mixing . Total 50 g CF+50 g DW+7 g emulsifier+0.1 g LAE-HCl=107.1 g. 0.1 g active preservative/107.1 g=0.00093 or 0.093 wt % preservative; 10 g emulsion coated onto 100 g kibble=>10 g ×0.093 wt % LAE-HCl preservative/100 g kibble=0.093 g total preservative/100 g kibble or 93 ppm. This emulsion was clear after seven days at RT.
- Sample #4 was by making an emulsion consisting of 7 g of ADM Yelpin™1018 lecithin added to 50 g of chicken fat (“CF”) by vigorous mixing, then 50 g of distilled water (DW) was added with continued stirring. No additional surfactants or preservatives were added.
- Sample #5 was prepared w/o lecithin by dissolving LAE-thymol into 50 g of DW with vigorous mixing, and then the DW+LAE-thymol was added to 50 g of chicken fat with vigorous mixing. LAE-thymol is a controlled release salt of LAE with low water solubility as compared to LAE-HCl. Total 0.1 g preservative+50 g CF+50 g DW=100.1 g; 0.1 g active preservative/100.1 g total=˜0.1 wt % actives ; 10 g CF/DW coated onto 100 g kibble=>10 g×0.1 wt % preservative/100 g kibble=>0.01 g total preservative/100 g kibble or 100 ppm.
- All samples using CF/DW/emulsifier systems were visually stable after storage at RT for one week.
- Table 1 summarizes the compositions tested. Each sample contained 50 g chicken fat and 50 g DW; 10 g of each sample was applied to 100 g kibble. Testing and storage was at RT. Samples of coated kibble were kept in sealed plastic bags after applying to the kibble.

TABLE 1 Summary of compositions formulation according to the instant invention Sucrose LAE- LAE- Lecithin Emulsifier, Chicken DW, Monolaurin laurate HCl, thymol, Sample Emulsifier g fat, g g (ML) (SL), g g g Control — — 50 50 #1 Ultralac ™ 7 50 50 #2 Performix ™ E 7 50 50 0.5 1 #3 Performix ™ E 7 50 50 0.1 #4 Yelkin ™ 1018 7 50 50 #5 — — 50 50 0.1 - 10 g of each sample and control was applied to 100 g kibble. To apply each sample to the kibble, all samples were separately shaken onto a commercial kibble using a common hand held “cocktail” shaker. If a sample was made with a surfactant/emulsifier, to check the condition of the emulsions, each sample was stored in a glass bottle. In a commercial setting this step can be done either with a revolving pan or with a spray nozzle. There is no anticipated extra step in the overall process as compared with the steps commonly used in the pet food industry to manufacture kibble. Also the inclusion of the lecithin emulsifier only increases the overall water content by 4 to 8% and it does not necessitate an extra step to remove this water.
- Testing and storage was at RT. Samples of coated kibble were kept in sealed plastic bags after applying to the kibble. A sample was removed at 30 days for testing and a sample was removed at 60 days for testing. The kibble samples were challenged with a known load and reduction of bacteria measured.
- Performance kill tests on kibble against a mix of Salmonella bacterial strains (ATCC 10708, 6539, and 14028), defined in the instant invention as Salmonella sp., were conducted at 30 and 60 days. At each time point, cfu (colony forming units) were observed. The cfu was converted to a log number and the log reduction in colony forming units observed. This calculation is also shown as a percentage.
- Table 2 demonstrates the log reduction found at 30 days post coating of kibble for all five samples.

The log reduction was significant for several of the samples tested using various food preservatives (samples #2-5), with some compositions of the instant invention without containing lecithin giving significant log reductions (sample # 5). Samples also containing only lecithin also gave significant log reductions (sample #4). It is very advantageous that all ingredients are GRAS approved for food, and they all have nutritional value as food additives. It is expected that there will be no apparent taste problems at the inventive usage levels.
- Samples 1-5 showed log reductions after 30 days. Sample #1 showed no log reduction after 60 days, using only an emulsifier with an HLB of 7. (There was also visual growth noted after 60 days). Sample #4 using only an emulsifier with an HLB of 11 gave increased log reduction after 60 days. Sample # 2 with an emulsifier with an HLB of 12 and two GRAS surfactants with inhibitory characteristics gave an increased log reduction after 60 days, while sample #3 with the same emulsifier as sample #2 but with a food preservative gave reduced log reduction after 60 days. Sample #5 with no emulsifier and no surfactants but with the salt LAE-thymol, gave an increased log reduction after 60 days. After 120 days there was no mold evident in Sample #3 of coated kibble in a sealed plastic bag using a combination of sucrose laurate and monolaurin emulsified with lecithin.
- Another test using the composition in Sample #3 on poultry utilizing 0.093 wt % LAE-HCl (per weight of raw poultry). At 3 day recovery, the cfu 1.51×105, the log 5.18, the log reduction 2, for a % reduction of 99.95%. (The control: cfu at 2×107, log 7.3). For Sample #3 coated onto kibble, the log reduction was 1.9 after 30 days and 0.9 after 60 days. A zone of inhibition was done at 1 hour to confirm if these samples had any preservative activity. A zone of inhibition is used as a screening test to determine if further testing should be done for a quantitative, determination e.g. a time kill log reduction. The zone data supports the 3 day results that sample 3 is effective at killing salmonella in chicken fat.
- As stated above, while the present application has been illustrated by the description of embodiments thereof and while the embodiments have been described in considerable detail, it is not the intention of the applicants to restrict or in any way limit the scope of the appended claims to such detail. Additional advantages and modifications will readily appear to those skilled in the art, having the benefit of the present application. Therefore, the application, in its broader aspects, is not limited to the specific details of the illustrative examples shown. Departures may be made from such details and examples without departing from the spirit or scope of the general inventive concept.
