Chitosan when interacting with any animal protein increases the moisture content of the finished product 10-15%. Boiled sausage with mechanically separated poultry meat and protein-mineral-hydrocarbon additives has a well balanced composition, it has high consumer properties and can be attributed to complete nutrition by content of essential amino acids.
