An evaporator and associated food pan refrigerator, such as sandwich-top refrigerators and those used for salads, seafood, ice cream, condiments, and so forth. The food pan refrigerator includes a number of food pans set into the top surface of the refrigerator. The angled fan housing blows the refrigerated air exiting the evaporator evenly across the bottom of the food pans, resulting in even cooling of all pans. In addition, the angled fans effectively and efficiently circulate the air from the fans to the warmest section in the front of the refrigerator and then to the air return located at the bottom of the evaporator. The result is an improved evaporator and associated food pan refrigerator that cools the food pans more evenly and efficiently than prior food pan refrigerators.

The severity of damage caused to the skin and mucosa of animals with cancer undergoing radiation therapy is mitigated by feeding the animal a nutritionally balanced food composition containing omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids which are supplemented with a mixture of a omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and arginine.

Method for reducing the damaging effects of radiation therapy on animal

The severity of metabolic disturbance in animals with cancer is mitigated by feeding the animal a nutritionally balanced food composition having a fat content of about 27 to 35%, on a dry matter basis, a carbohydrate content of about 15 to about 27% on a dry matter basis in which is present a mixture of arginine, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids, the weight ratio of omega-3, omega-6 fatty acid being in the range of 0.3:1 to 3.5:1.

Therapeutic diet for metabolic abnormalities found in animals with

A pet food product prepared from a fiber containing nutritionally balanced mixture of carbohydrate protein, fat, vitamins and minerals, the product having an expanded striated structural matrix which fractures when chewed by the pet. The product when chewed by the pet exhibits an improved mechanical tooth cleansing function whereby a substantial reduction in plaque, stain and tartar on the pet's teeth is affected. The product is prepared by extruding a plasticized mixture of food ingredients through a discharge passageway, the internal walls of which are maintained at a coefficient of friction no greater than 0.2 so that a condition resembling laminar flow exists in the extrudate.

Pet food product having oral care properties

An edible pet chew product having a flexible cellular matrix in which is contained a cellulosic fibrous material such as corn cob fractions having a mechanical cleansing function, which when chewed by the pet, effects a reduction in plaque, stain and tartar on the pet's teeth. An oral care additive may be incorporated in the matrix to inhibit dental problems, the composition of the cellular matrix being substantially inert to the oral care additive.
