Description

Technical field

The invention relates to the food industry, as well as to the production of feed for dogs and cats.

State of the art

Various frozen semi-finished products from dough with filling are known (dumplings, khinkali, ravioli, etc.) intended for human nutrition. The composition of such products is developed taking into account the human food preferences. At the same time, many people contain pets - dogs and cats, which in recent years are increasingly performing the function of a companion. Therefore, it is quite natural that it is difficult to refrain from giving a favorite a piece of something tasty from his own plate. Studies in the field of creating feed for the nutrition of domestic animals found that feeding animals with ordinary food from a person’s table does not always favorably affect their health. This is due to the fact that human food is more saturated with salt and other spices that are contraindicated in animals. The aforementioned fully applies to food products from dough with filling. So, for example, the composition of almost any dumplings includes a considerable amount of salt, pepper and onion.

Various specialized animal feeds are also known. There are two types of such feed: dry and canned. At the same time, leading veterinarians do not recommend the use of inexpensive feeds, since the latter are prepared from ingredients of poor quality. It is also not recommended to feed animals with mixed food, i.e. both specialized and natural feeds. The cost of premium feed is high, in addition, they are sold in a very limited number of outlets. It is also important that canned food contains additives (preservatives) to increase the shelf life. Thus, most pet owners in one way or another use natural food for their pets.

Numerous formulations of minced meat used in the food industry are known, including beef, pork, onions, salt, pepper, etc. in predetermined proportions (RU 2255484, RU 2212145). However, veterinarians advise not to include pork, onions, peppers in the diet of domestic animals, and the amount of salt is severely limited. Moreover, in most recipes (RU 2212145), it is assumed that wheat flour is used, which contains a large amount of gluten and is therefore poorly absorbed by animals. Instead of wheat flour when feeding animals, veterinarians advise using buckwheat, oat, corn, rice flour.

Known food product from the test shell and various fillings (RF patent No. 2255484), made in the form of dumplings, the dough of which includes flour, egg and water, and the filling consists of animal meat, onions, salt, spices and water.

Dumplings are also known (RF patent No. 2212146), the mincemeat of which is prepared on the basis of meat raw materials with the addition of soy protein, onion, garlic, salt and flavoring additives, where beef and pork are used as components of meat raw materials.

The disadvantages of such products in the aspect of the claimed invention should include the presence in the compositions of their fillings of components such as onions, garlic, flavorings, pork and a sufficient amount of salt, since these products are not suitable for food by pets.

SUMMARY OF INVENTIONS

The remnants of fresh human food are not at all so bad (if certain rules are followed), although objections to such feeding can be heard in the advertising of animal feed or among dealers of such feed.

The objective of the invention is the expansion of the range, the creation of a universal food product suitable for human nutrition and for feeding pets.

The problem is solved by achieving the following technical result:

- the proposed product can be used as a food product, and at the same time as a feed, since it contains ingredients recommended both for human nutrition and for feeding all breeds of dogs and cats with a wide weight range;

- provides the possibility of manufacturing the final product on standard production lines;

- provides the blurring of the line between domestic animals and humans as food;

- reduced cooking time for a pet in case of feeding it with non-special feeds;

- provides the possibility of simultaneous cooking as suitable for humans and domestic animals;

- provides the opportunity to purchase feed in parallel with the acquisition of food products;

- it is possible to use a minimum content of substances (impurities) in the feed, ensuring long-term storage of the product. As a rule, such substances (preservatives) adversely affect the microflora of the digestive tract. Due to the fact that the product should be stored at a temperature of less than -5 ° C, there is no need to add preservatives;

- provides a short cooking time of the feed (after boiling water / liquid) is (usually) no more than 5 minutes;

- ensures the absence of a sharp, allergenic smell of both cooked food and during storage and preparation of food;

- ensures the absence of a sharp, allergenic smell from the used packaging from under the feed;

- provides the ability to store feed in the freezer along with food;

- it is possible to organize feed sales in food departments, and not in special departments for animals, which reduces the time spent by the owner (owner) of the animal to purchase feed;

- it is ensured that the mass of the prepared feed consumed by the animal is 50-200% more than the mass of feed in the package. During cooking, the feed mass increases due to liquid filling and the presence of broth;

- nutrients from the broth are better and faster absorbed by the body, which leads to a decrease in the formation of toxins in the body;

- food, including broth, is more easily mixed with animal saliva during consumption.

The claimed technical result is achieved as follows.

A universal food product such as dumplings, which can be used to feed dogs and / or cats, is made containing a shell of dough as its components and enclosed in the last filling.

At the same time, the test composition includes water, as well as flour selected from the list: rice, buckwheat, oat, corn, or a composition of flour of the indicated species, or their composition with wheat flour at a weight% of the latter in the shell of not more than 33.

The filling is made consisting of 20-90% of a meat product selected from the list: lamb, veal, beef, lamb, rabbit meat, ostrich meat, turkey meat, chicken, chicken liver, kidneys and other offal, sea fish, or a meat composition products of these types.

The ratio of the volume of the shell to the volume of the filling of the product should be in the range from 1:10 to 3: 1, and the maximum size should not exceed 60 mm.

As the material of the shell can be used raw dough.

A chicken, ostrich or quail egg can be added to the dough.

Chicken, ostrich or quail egg protein can be added to the dough.

Water may be added to the composition of the filling.

In addition to these components, the product may contain spices and / or additional ingredients.

Information confirming the possibility of implementing inventions

Recommendations on feeding pets are widely represented in the literature (for example, S.N. Khokhrin. Feeding dogs and cats; Graham Meadows, Elsa Flint. Your cat. Complete practical guide; Graham Meadows, Elsa Flint. Your dog. Complete practical guide; A .Sanin, A. Lipin, E. Zinchenko. Veterinary directory of traditional and non-traditional methods of treating cats; A. Sanin, A. Lipin, E. Zinchenko. Veterinary directory of traditional and non-traditional methods of treating dogs).

Representatives of the dog family (Canidae) are predatory and consume large amounts of animal protein. However, a purely meat diet does not contain many essential nutrients (fats, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins and fiber), so they absorb a lot of plant foods - either directly or as the contents of the stomachs of their prey, as well as other foods, including insects .

Representatives of the cat family (Felidae) are the most specialized of predators, adapted for obtaining animal food. Not only do they eat the meat of their victims, they eat almost everything, including skin, wool or feathers, as well as internal organs. To be healthy, a domestic cat needs the amino acid taurine, which prevents heart and eye diseases. Taurine is found in large quantities in animal proteins, but very little in vegetable proteins. Dogs have the ability to synthesize taurine in their body, while cats are practically devoid of this ability. For this reason, in order to survive, cats, unlike dogs, must receive a certain amount of animal protein every day.

In addition to animal protein, dogs and cats need carbohydrates and fats. Carbohydrates serve as a source of energy, thereby preventing the use of proteins for this purpose, which is undesirable, as this leads to the formation of excess ammonia. Fats are a concentrated source of energy, provide essential fatty acids (including linoleic acid) that promote healthy skin and coat, and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E and K). It is believed that the diet of a healthy dog can include up to 20% of animal or vegetable fats.

For normal metabolism, certain vitamins are also required in food. Vitamins A, D, E and K are soluble in fats, so fats are their source. Vitamins A and D (not synthesized from provitamin in cats) are especially important for bone growth. Vitamin E ensures the normal functioning of muscles, vision and reproductive organs. Vitamin K is necessary for normal blood coagulation and hemostasis. Vitamins of group B contribute to the conversion of carbohydrates and fats into energy, which is used for the life of the body, are involved in the metabolism of enzymes, nerve tissues, etc. These vitamins are found in brewer's yeast, buckwheat, fresh herbs. Vitamins B3 B6 are not synthesized by the intestinal microflora of cats, so they must be supplied with food.

Also important is the presence in the feed of minerals, which, unlike proteins of fats and carbohydrates, do not have nutritional value, but are essential for the body as plastic material (for example, to build bone tissue) and as regulators of metabolic processes involved in maintaining a certain level of osmotic pressure , acid-base balance, as a structural element of enzyme systems, etc. Almost all mineral substances found in nature are included in the body tissues of dogs and cats. In nature, these substances are essentially insoluble. They can be introduced into the body only in the form of soluble salts, which are found in both animal and plant foods.

All types of red and white meat contain proteins, B vitamins, fats and are a source of energy.

The liver is a valuable product rich in proteins, fats and fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E and B vitamins.

Fish contains high-quality proteins and iodine. It is better to feed the animals with boiled fish, since the raw one contains thiaminase - an enzyme that destroys thiamine, one of the B vitamins, but thiaminase is destroyed by heat treatment.

Eggs contain proteins, most vitamins, except vitamin C (dogs and cats have the ability to synthesize vitamin C, therefore, do not need additional sources of it), and carbohydrates.

Cheese is a good source of animal protein. Cheese does not contain lactose, which is poorly absorbed by adult animals.

Cereals contain carbohydrates, vegetable proteins, minerals and vitamins. Cats like the taste of rice (it also contains vitamin B6), so it is included in many types of cat food.

Root crops are a source of vitamin A and plant fiber, which should be approximately 5% of the diet of dogs and cats.

Vegetable oils and fish oil (in small quantities) are more useful than animal fats, however, when feeding cats, it must be borne in mind that they are not capable of synthesizing arachidonic acid, which is rich in animal fats.

Yeast is rich in B vitamins and some important minerals.

In the book - Khokhrin S.N. Feeding dogs and cats - shows an approximate structure of the basis of the diet for adult animals,%

Products cats dogs meat and offal 20 ... 30 35 ... 70 Fish 2 ... 5 2 ... 5 milk products 8 ... 15 5 ... 10 groats (buckwheat, or rice, or oatmeal) 20 ... 40 40 ... 60 bread 20 ... 40 15 ... 30 vegetables (carrots, cabbage, beets ...) 3 ... 7 10 ... 30

It also indicates the need to add additives to the main products: fish oil, yeast, eggs.

These recommendations are taken into account when developing the specific composition of the claimed food product.

It should be noted that all of these products are included in the human diet.
