PSA Nutrition: Phytase

چکیده
Both 1,25-dihidroxyvitamin D3 and phytase are known to improve phosphorus utilization in broilers(Biehl and Baker,J Nutr 1997). Solanum glaucophyllum(Sg) is a plant containing high amounts of 1,25dihydroxyvitamin D bound to a glycoside. It may be an economical source of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D for animal feeds. We examined the effect of Sg, with and without phytase, on phosphorus utilization in broilers fed corn-soybean meal diets. The basal diet was 0.6% Ca, 0.45% total P(0.15% available P) with adequate vitamin D3(3000IU/kg). The six treatments included basal diet,basal with 7.5 g Sg/kg, basal with 10 g Sg/kg, basal with 1200FTU phytase/kg,basal with phytase (1200FTU/kg) and Sg (7.5g/kg), and ”normal” diet (0.7% total phosphorus, 1% calcium). Each treatment was given to six pens of 8 chicks. When compared with the basal diet, addition of 7.5 gSg/kg or phytase improved growth and bone mineralization. Increasing Sg to 10 g/kg diet did not significantly improve weight gain or bone density over the 7.5 g Sg/kg dose. Phytase and Sg supplementation increased plasma and bone Ca and P concentration similarly, however the greatest weight gain and tibiae ash was observed in the phytase (1200FTU/kg) group. Adding 7.5 g Sg to the phytase supplementation did not significantly improve P utilization over phytase alone.

Ronozyme PTM CT (RCT), a phytase, was developed for improved heat stability for pelleted feeds to avoid the need for liquid phytase application. The patented, thin lipid coating of the beadlet reduces enzyme exposure to moisture, one of the two major destabilizing factors for phytase during pelleting. Retention tests were completed in 12 randomly chosen integrated U.S. poultry commercial feedmi...

There is a distinct possibility that phytate negatively influences protein and energy utilisation in poultry and, as these influences would be ameliorated by phytase, there are substantial, practical implications. Despite several thousand scientific papers and a rapidly growing market the use of phytase and the importance of phytate in practical poultry nutrition remains an area of some confusi...

Phosphorus (P) is a macro mineral in broiler nutrition. In growing broilers, besides its requirement for proper bone development, it is also involved in almost all metabolic processes. Poor P availability results in decreased productivity and poor health status.Phosphorus availability from plant derived feeds is affected by an anti-nutritional factor “phytate”, which forms a variety of insolubl...

This current study was planned to evaluate effect of exogenous phytase supplementedMoringaoleifera leaf meal (MOLM) diet on mineral digestibility of Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings. To conduct the experiment, six experimental diets based on MOLM with 0, 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1000 FTU kg-1 phytase level wereformulated. Chromic oxide (1%) was added in the feed as indigestible marker. Completel...
