introduction phytic acid is a main compound in all plant seeds and contains 60 to 70% of total phosphorus in plant. monogastric animals cannot use phytatephosphorus because of low phytase activity in their digestive tract. thus in addition to unabsorbed mineral phosphorus, phytate phosphorus in fecal ofmonogastric animals may affect water and environment pollution. it is suggested to use of phy...

From the last few years, the inclusion of microbial phytase in poultry diets has increased significantly, mainly in response to heightened concerns over phosphorus pollution of the environment and as cheaper means to make phosphorus available to birds from phytate. Phytate is the major form of phosphorus, abundantly found in cereal grains, beans and oilseed meals used in poultry diet but the mo...

The study aimed to evaluate the potential effects of feeding with phytase transgenic corn (PTC) on organ weight, serum biochemical parameters and nutrient digestibility, and to determine the fate of the transgenic DNA in laying hens. A total of 144 50-week-old laying hens were grouped randomly into 2 treatments, with 8 replicates per treatment and 9 hens per replicate. Each treatment group of h...

The effects of offering broilers phosphorus-adequate diets containing 10.0 and 11.8 g/kg lysine, without and with 500 FTU/kg exogenous phytase, on growth performance and nutrient utilisation were determined. Each of the four experimental diets was offered to 6 replicates of 10 birds from 7 to 28 days of age. Effects of treatment on performance, apparent metabolisable energy, apparent ileal dige...

24 A study was conducted with Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) to determine the 25 apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) of protein, phosphorus and energy in 26 practical feed ingredients. The digestible energy (DE) content was also evaluated. 27 Test ingredients were anchovy fishmeal, solvent-extracted soybean meal, corn 28 gluten and wheat meal. Due to their low cohesion, sole faeces...

Phosphorus of plant-based feedstuffs for monogastric animals is mainly in the form of phytic P, which has a very low bioavailability. The nondigested phytic P may contribute to P pollution. Furthermore, phytic acid may reduce digestibility of other minerals and protein. This study evaluated effects of the microbial 6-phytase RONOZYME HiPhos on apparent ileal digestibility of P, phytic acid, Ca,...

Soybeans is an important crop in the United States and are primarily used for animal feed, human food, and production of biofuels. Soybean meal (SBM) and other soy products contribute high-quality protein to diets fed to pigs because soy protein is rich in the limiting amino acids lysine, threonine, and tryptophan that are present in relatively low concentrations in the most commonly fed cereal...

The amount of phosphorus in rice, though large in comprison with that of calcium, is not enough for the normal growth of rats and calcification of their bone. Moreover, the greater part of phosphorus in rice is phytin form of low digestibility. The authors have investigated the effect of addition of egg albumin and vitamin D to the rice diet on the availability of phosphorus in rice by rats. Th...
