PET Food Processing - December 2020 - 27

Ames said. " But some of what now seems
new or novel for many manufacturers is actually tried-and-true technology that offers
tremendous value as manufacturers deal
with the consequences of dramatically different pet food formulations. "
Antimicrobial agents can also reduce
food safety risks or in-process spoilage. This
helps ensure the product is still fresh when
its sold and consumed. Refrigerated fresh
pet foods are especially susceptible to product breakdown and spoilage.
" A manufacturer of fresh meat products
might add lactic acid to help with pH control, which ultimately helps with microbial control, " said Lisa Schole, co-owner,
Evolve Consulting Group.
Altom added, " One of the major challenges is product stability and moisture loss
in fresh meats prior to processing. This is
because of a potential delayed time between

WHAT PROCESSING AIDS CAN DO:

Corbion offers a wide range of emulsifiers that help reduce energy consumption,
increase manufacturing throughput and
achieve higher product yields. The company also offers natural acids and acid salts
that increase food safety by inhibiting the
growth of yeasts and molds in pet food
raw materials or killing Salmonella in the
process. If these intermediary effects aren't
acting in the final product during its shelflife, and are present at insignificant levels,
then, processing aid status is likely merited. An ingredient is typically declared if
preservation is occurring.
" Food safety issues can occur in the supply chain very rapidly, so intermediary preservation is an important part of avoiding
safety risks such as Listeria or Salmonella
in pet foods, and having effective solutions
based on natural ingredients is a relatively
new advantage for makers of pet foods, "
