Background:
To explore a new method of deep processing and to improve the value of rabbit bone, we prepared a nano-scaled rabbit bone powder by dry ball milling and compared the effect of different particle sizes of rabbit bone powder [fine-scaled (236.01 ± 5.99 μm), superfine-scaled (65.92 ± 1.71 μm), nano-scaled (502.52 ± 11.72 nm)] on the nutritional characteristics, pH, color, water-holding capacity, textural and rheological attributes of rabbit meat batter.
Results:
The rabbit bone powder significantly affected nutritional characteristics of meat batters; in particular, the contents of calcium were increased, regardless of particle size. Additionally, the rabbit meat batter, which contained 20 g kg-1 nano-scaled rabbit bone, had the lowest centrifugal and cooking losses among the treatments.
Conclusion:
Based on the textural and rheological attributes of the rabbit meat batters, the addition of 20 g kg-1 nano-scaled rabbit bone was the best treatment. This represents an important finding with respect to the deep processing of rabbit bone in the rabbit meat industry. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

One important factor is the drug's molecular size. The kidneys readily excrete smaller molecules below 300 Daltons (Da). On the other hand, molecules weighing between 300 and 500 Da are excreted through both urine and bile. Larger molecules above 500 Da tend to be excreted...
