Cat foods with low protein content will often cause excess flatulence. Feeding a cat a food with more protein will solve this. Simply look at the ingredients list of the food, and if a protein source is not the first ingredient, then the food is low quality.
23 grams of crude protein
you are able to answer your question by using the following formula of estimating crude protein content in food or whatever protein percent you would like to estimate. protein percentage = (titration value- blank titration value )(0.01*14.007) weight of sample used Multiply the result by 100 and afterwards by 6.25 factor. then you will get the accurate protein percentage that you are looking for . hope that helped out .
Spirulina with a crude protein content ranging from 60 to 70%
in proximate analysis of food, you determine for moisture content in the food, you determine for ashing, you determine for protein, crude fiber and so on
Why are you giving your dog cat food? Cat food is higher in protein and will cause diarrhea in dogs so don't feed cat food to your dog.
Meow Mix is not a healthy cat food. The first ingredients in a quality cat food is protein. The first ingredients in Meow Mix are corn based products.
It is not ideal to feed cat food to a dog, nor dog food to a cat. Cats are obligate carnivores; dogs are opportunistic carnivores and thus have different dietary requirements. Cat food is higher in protein and fat than dog food, which can cause the dog to gain weight if fed cat food.
It has 20% crude protein and 70% dry matter digestibility.
Occasionally - nothing. If your dog usually/Always eat cat food it may not do that well since dogs and cats don't have exactly the same dietary requirements. Cat food has more fat and protein than dog food.
Not if it is a good quality, complete nutrition cat food. "Ash" is what is left behind when all of the fat, protein, carbohydrates, fiber and water are removed. Ash includes minerals like calcium and phosphorus that are necessary for a cat's metabolism and survival. "No ash" cat food would be unhealthy to use as a cat's sole food source. As an aside, ashes are not added to the food for this mineral component. "Ash" is just a measurement made by incinerating/burning a food sample, and whatever is left behind (the protein, etc. are burned off) is considered the "ash" component measurement of the food.
No. I used to have a dog that would eat nothing but dry cat food, and only Purina cat food. I later found out though, that cat food has a higher amount of protein than dog food, and could have resulted in health problems for my dog if I had kept him on it long term. But an ocassional meal of cat food will not hurt your dog.
