Pet dental care chews with high palatability and processing method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses pet dental care chews with high palatability and a processing method thereof. The pet dental care chews are made with a base material and a palatable material; the base material is made with, by mass, 15-30% of starch, 15-30% of wheat gluten, 2-10% of edible natural plant fibers, 6-10% of phosphate-modified starch, 0.2-1% of sodium tripolyphosphate, 0.4-1% of an acidity regulator, 15-25% of glycerol, and 15-25% of water. The palatable material is made with, by mass, 80-90% of fresh meat, 2-10% of starch, 2-8% of glycerol, 0.2-1% of sodium tripolyphosphate, and 1-5% of water. The pet dental care chews herein have good dental cleaning effect and good palatability; the processing method of the pet dental care chews is more efficient than the prior art.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of functional pet food, in particular to a highly palatable pet dental bone and a processing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of the living standards of Chinese residents and the reduction of family size, keeping pets has become a part of the life of more and more urbanites. People's growing love for pets has led to a rapid increase in the number of pets, which in turn has prompted the gradual growth of the pet food industry. According to statistics, in the past ten years, the compound growth rate of my country's pet food market has exceeded 30%, making it one of the fastest growing regions in the world. According to the use of products, pet food can be divided into pet staple food and pet snacks. Among them, pet staple food is a necessary product for pets’ daily life, and can be divided into three categories: dry food, semi-dry food and wet food; pet snacks are m...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Existing tooth-cleaning bone products include dried animal skin products and extruded processed products. As a traditional tooth-cleaning product, animal dry skin products are directly made from dry products such as cowhide and pigskin through cutting and artificial processing. Since dry products such as cowhide and pigskin are produced through bleaching, washing, drying and other processing steps, they have no or very little meaty taste to attract pets, and animal leather products need to be cut and manually processed into specific shapes The processing efficiency of other steps is low, and the texture of animal leather products is very dry and hard. Pets are easy to scratch teeth or injure oral mucosa when eating; Solid injection-molded bone products and tooth-cleaning bone products prepared by extrusion technology, solid injection-molded bone products with molar and tooth-cleaning effects are all hard in texture, and the surface is slippery after biting, which is easy to swallow as a whole and cause throat jamming, which is different from Solid injection-molded bone products, extruded into flakes and then processed into bone-shaped products have a relatively complex structure, which can completely avoid the risk of food stuck in the throat; extruded processed products are a new type of pet tooth cleaning food , which has the characteristics of beautiful appearance and good tooth-cleaning effect. The existing method of preparing tooth-cleaning bones by extrusion process is to extrude the raw materials into strips through the extruder production line, and then the strips are artificially processed at both ends. Knotted into a bone shape to obtain tooth cleaning bone, the existing pet tooth cleaning bone products of this form generally have poor palatability, and it is difficult to attract pets to eat tooth cleaning bone and provide teeth cleaning / grinding effect in addition to eating staple food , and the palatability-enhancing products on the market are generally suitable for wet pet processed products such as canned food and soup. The main way to increase its attractiveness to pets is to add meat. Therefore, in the prior art, this form of dental bone products is usually extruded into strips through the extruder production line, and then obtained Place meat strips on the strip-shaped upper part or place meat strips on the strip-shaped upper part and fold the meat strips in the middle, and then manually tie the two ends into a bone shape to obtain the dentate bone. Due to the small size of the dentition bone itself, it It is time-consuming and the processing efficiency is low. In addition, the position of the meat strips needs to be manually fixed after the meat strips are added in the dental bone cleaning process, and the two ends need to be tied at the same time. This has become the main factor restricting its processing efficiency. At the same time, it is now Some tooth cleaning bones made by extrusion processing have the disadvantage of poor tooth cleaning effect, and it is difficult to realize the molar / teeth cleaning function of the tooth cleaning bone in the true sense
