The objectives of this study were: (a) to evaluate the effect of inclusion of mechanically separated chicken meat (MSCM) in dry dog food on fatty acid profile, in vivo and in vitro digestibility, and palatability as compared with dry dog food containing meat by-products (MBP); (b) to determine, whether or not, the inclusion of the one or the other ingredient changes the microbiology and the storage quality of the two food products; (c) to propose a new system (DaisyII Incubator) to measure the…

Evaluation of nutritional value and microbiological safety in commercial dog food
TLDR
The evaluated dry dog foods had varied microbiological quality and the lack of European Commission standards regarding the permissible amounts of microorganisms in pet food may result in insufficient quality control of these products.

Prediction of digestible energy content of extruded dog food by in vitro analyses.
TLDR
The aim of this study was to develop a simple and reproducible in vitro method for predicting the apparent energy digestibility of dry extruded dog foods based on the two-step multienzymatic incubation assay described by Boisen, S., 1991, with some modifications adapted to dogs' digestion characteristics.
Prediction of digestible protein content of dry extruded dog foods: comparison of methods.
TLDR
Checking the accuracy of laboratory methods to predict the apparent protein digestibility and digestible protein content of dog foods, avoiding the use of experimental animals in digestion trials revealed very good, similar accuracy in the prediction of DP content.
Enzyme use in kibble diets formulated with wheat bran for dogs: effects on processing and digestibility.
TLDR
The enzyme addition did not result in improved digestibility of a diet high in non-starch polysaccharides; however, only ATTD was measured and nutrient fermentation in the large intestine may have interfered with the results obtained.
Prediction of digestible energy value of extruded dog food: comparison of methods.
TLDR
The alternative prediction methods used in this study take into account differences of ingredient composition and availability of nutrients of different extruded dog foods thus could be better systems of valuating energy content in a wider range of different kind of foods than in use method.
Digestibility and palatability of isolated porcine protein in dogs
TLDR
The inclusion of IPP in the diet increases the digestibility of dietary nutrients and ME content; however, it reduces food palatability and faecal DM.
Effect of the particle size of maize, rice, and sorghum in extruded diets for dogs on starch gelatinization, digestibility, and the fecal concentration of fermentation products.
TLDR
For dogs fed different particle sizes of the cereal starches in the extruded diets, the digestibility and fecal characteristics were affected, and this effect was ingredient dependent.
Effect of enzyme supplements on macronutrient digestibility by healthy adult dogs
TLDR
Exogenous enzyme supplementation did not significantly increase digestibility of a typical commercial dry diet in healthy adult dogs and routine use of such products is not recommended.
