Chicken is the most common animal protein source in pet food for a number of good reasons. First of all, it is abundantly available globally and a relatively trouble-free animal species in terms of export health certifications and religious sensitivity. Animal welfare initiatives with regard to chicken, such as slow-growing breeds and increased outdoor access, are adopted globally. Chicken’s carbon footprint is relatively small while by-products, such as chicken meal, chicken MDM, and chicken plasma, have an excellent nutritional profile or functional properties.
As a nutrient-dense protein source, chicken liver hydrolyzate powder is far superior to all other types of hydrolyzed protein. Inherent to its protein completeness, the ingredient has an abundance of essential vitamins and minerals. Applications vary widely: It is frequently used as a base ingredient for the production of palatants, but can also be incorporated as a single ingredient in dry or wet pet foods, treats, and snacks to boost a product’s nutritional profile and its palatability. It can be applied over kibbles or as an ingredient in kibbles, wet pet food, and appealing pet treats.
