Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing animal food, in particular fish food, which contains a colour pigment, for example astaxanthine .
  • WO 88/08025 discloses a method of this kind, wherein a yeast cell, in particular a mutant of Phaffia Rhodozyma, produces the red pigment astaxanthine, which pigment is added to animal food, in particular to food for anadromous fishes, such as salmon and trout. Such fishes obtain an attractive, red colour by consuming food which contains astaxanthine.
  • Another object of the invention is to obtain a product which can be added to animal food, which product contains a colour pigment and which contributes to the nutritional value, and which furthermore has a binding effect on the animal food when being processed into pellets or other chunks of solid material.
  • a material which is rich in starch is used as a nutrient medium for the micro- organism during the production of the colour pigment, after which the starch-rich material, insofar as it has not been consumed by the micro-organism, is added to the animal food together with the pigment thus produced.
  • the colour pigment is for example astaxanthine.
  • the invention can also be implemented with other pigments, the present disclosure will be based on the use of astaxanthine.
  • Astaxanthine is thereby produced by cultivating the respective micro-organism, preferably Phaffia Rhodozyma, with a component of the animal food as a nutrient medium.
  • Said nutrient medium is a starch-rich material, which has for example been produced from potatoes or tapioca, but it is preferred to use a starch-rich material produced from a cereal, for example maize, wheat, barley, oats, rye or rice.
  • the starch-rich material which is a component of the 5 animal food as well as the nutrient medium on which the micro-organism produces the astaxanthine, is preferably produced by milling husked and/or germinated grains into flour and subsequently cooking said flour by adding moisture and subjecting it to a heat treatment.
  • the astaxanthine is not separately produced and added to the food, therefore, but it is added to the animal food, together with its nutrient medium, after production.
  • the starch-rich material which both constitutes a component of the animal food and functions as a nutrient medium, may furthermore function as a binder upon processing of the food into pellets or chunks, that is, into the eventual shape of the animal food.
  • the pellets preferably have a dimension of 1 - 20 mm.
  • the method constitutes a considerable simplification in comparison with what is usual, since it is not necessary to separate the astaxanthine and the nutrient medium after the production of said pigment. Both components are added to the animal food, and that simultaneously so.
  • the action of the pigment is enhanced by treating cells of the microorganism in such a manner that they are broken open. This may take place by first exposing the cells to a high air pressure and subsequently reducing said pressure. Also known mechanical treatments, such as a milling operation, may be used for breaking the cells open.
  • the micro-organism is added to the material after the starch-rich material has been subjected to a heat treatment, after which the micro-organism is enabled to produce astaxanthine.
  • a heat treatment after which the micro-organism is enabled to produce astaxanthine.
  • This may take a few days, whereby the material is maintained at a suitable temperature, and kept in motion, at least from time to time, for example in a rotating drum.
  • Suitable treatments wherein especially the humidity level, the temperature, the carbon dioxide content and the oxygen content are important, are extensively described in WO 88/08025.
  • the amount of starch-rich material on which the microorganism is planted is for example such that 5 - 50% thereof is used up during the production of the astaxanthine .
  • the starch-rich material is cooked by extruding it while heating, after moisture has been added, after which the micro-organism which is capable of producing astaxanthine is added before cooling takes place, and the material is maintained at a suitable temperature and under suitable conditions for some time for producing the astaxanthine.
  • the heat which is present upon extrusion is thereby used for producing the astaxanthine.
  • the material is not cooled completely, so that it need not be heated to the temperature at which an optimum production of astaxanthine takes place.
  • the starch-rich material is cut into slices thereby, in a direction substantially transversely to the extrusion direction, directly after leaving the extrusion nozzle, in order to form pieces of material on which the micro-organism is planted.
  • said slices have a thickness of less than 1 mm, more preferably less than 0.5 mm.
  • the micro-organism After the micro-organism has produced a sufficient amount of astaxanthine, it can be made inactive, for example by means of a heat treatment or by adding a chemical substance which makes the micro-organism inactive. Effective means are known for making the micro-organism inactive.
  • the starch-rich material which has served as a nutrient medium for the micro-organism is milled together with said micro-organism and the astaxanthine that has been produced, so that a substantially homogeneous, powdery product containing cooked, starch- rich material, astaxanthine and residue of the micro- organism is obtained, which product is intended for being added to animal food, in particular fish food.
  • the material may be subjected to a drying process before being milled.
  • the invention furthermore relates to a device for producing a product to be used in animal food, which device comprises an extruder for cooking a starch-rich material and form it into a coherent mass, and means for cutting the material coming out of the extrusion nozzle into slices, and which furthermore comprises means for adding a micro-organism to the starch-rich material that has been cut into slices.
  • Said device is suitable for carrying out the method disclosed herein.
  • the invention furthermore relates to a product consisting of a package containing astaxanthine and a starch-rich material, which has served as a nutrient medium for a micro-organism which has produced the astaxanthine, which contents have been milled into a powder.
  • the package transmits light to a limited degree only, and/or its contents do not contain oxygen, or only very little, so that the shelf life of the astaxanthine will be prolonged.
  • Figure 1 serves to explain a so-called wet procedure
  • Figure 2 serves to explain a so-called dry procedure.
  • Maize flour present in a storage hopper 1 is added to a pre-conditioner, wherein the raw material is prepared while adding water and steam. Then the prepared raw material (maize flour) is supplied to extruder 3. In said extruder 3, the raw material is cooked while adding water and steam, applying friction and increasing the temperature, for example to 115 degrees Celsius.
  • the material is then carried to a mixer 4, wherein a homogeneous material is formed by means of a stirring apparatus while adding water, and possibly acid and nutrients, and reducing the temperature, which material is subsequently supplied to forming extruder 5.
  • the temperature in forming extruder 5 is lower than in extruder 3 , and the material is kneaded and compacted therein (that is, the air it contains is removed) .
  • the micro-organism, Phaffia Rhodozyma in this embodiment is added to said forming extruder 5.
  • the material is cut into thin slices having a thickness of less than 0.5 mm upon exiting forming extruder 5, as a result of which the material has a shape which is - excellently suited for functioning as a nutrient medium for the micro-organism.
  • the humidity level and the temperature of the material upon exiting from extruder 5 may be adjusted so that the conditions of the material being charged to reactor 6 are suitable for the production of astaxanthine by the micro-organism.
  • the material that is supplied to reactor 6 remains therein for a few days under predetermined temperature, oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide content and humidity level conditions, so that the desired amount of astaxanthine is produced. Then the material is led to dryer 7, wherein the micro-organism is made inactive by increasing the temperature. Moisture is evaporated until a stable, dry material is obtained, which material is then supplied to milling device 8 for a final milling operation, whereby the end product in the form of a powder is obtained by means of mechanical energy. Said end product can be packed light-tight and air-tight, and be offered for being added to fish food.
  • Said end product is a binder, which makes it possible to bind the fish food into chunks, a source of nutrient substances (digestible hydrocarbons and proteins) , as well as a colouring pigment.
  • Embodiment II (dry procedure) :
  • the starting material used in this embodiment is precooked maize flour, which is commercially available under the name of Suprex Corn.
  • Said pre-cooked maize flour is supplied from storage hopper 11 to a mixer 12, wherein a homogeneous material is formed by means of a stirring apparatus while adding water, and possibly acid and nutrients, and adapting the temperature, which material is subsequently supplied to forming extruder 13.
  • the material is kneaded and compacted therein (that is, the air it contains is removed) .
  • the micro-organism, Phaffia Rhodozyma in this embodiment is added to said forming extruder 13.
  • the material is cut into thin slices having a thickness of less than 0.5 mm upon exiting forming extruder 13, as a result of which the material has a shape which is excellently suited for functioning as a nutrient medium for the micro-organism.
  • the material is supplied to reactor 14, so that the material need not be heated to the temperature which is suitable for the production of astaxanthine by the micro-organism.
  • the material that is supplied to reactor 14 remains therein for a few days under predetermined temperature, oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide content and humidity level conditions, so that the desired amount of astaxanthine is produced.
