We have a colleague who works as a pets feeder and needs flavor to be added to the feed to entice animals in dry food and needs the chemical composition to write it in the material and methods.
The chemical composition of the flavor added to pet dry food can vary depending on the specific flavor and the brand of the food. Generally, pet food flavors are made up of a combination of natural and artificial compounds, which are designed to create a taste and aroma that is appealing to pets.
Some common compounds found in pet food flavors include amino acids, such as glutamic acid and lysine, which can enhance the meaty taste of the food. Other common flavor compounds include organic acids, such as acetic acid and citric acid, as well as various esters, aldehydes, and ketones, which can contribute to fruity, nutty, or buttery flavors.
Flavours added to pet food are chemical compound that enhanced animal feed palatability they can be organic (natural) or synthetic (artificial flavours)
Or common amino acids to increase the nutrients content and flavours such as lysine and common mono sodium glutamic acid ,
Most are gotten from plant and animal source because the flavours added to pet food varies by source and uses they also have varing chemical composition
