THE PROCESSING OF ANIMAL INTESTINES

摘要

In the processing of animal intestines for use as sausage casings or other product, the mucosal lining is extracted from the intestines by drawing the intestines past one or more vibrating heads which periodically compress the intestines against a reaction surface whereby the mucosal lining is extruded towards the rear of the intestines. The process results in significantly reduced water consumption during processing and a higher quality of the end product.
