American Biosystems Phytase 100000
Phytase 100,000 is designed to be used in a variety of feed, aquaculture and waste treatment applications. Phytase is a feed grade component used to digest phytic acid into components including ortho=phosphate and inositol. It is also useful in a variety of industrial processes and waste treatment applications. Phytase when used as a feed enzyme is designed specifically to improve the availability of phosphorus from plant sources. Phytase is derived from a strain of Pichia pastoris through a proprietary cultivation and extraction technique. It can degrade phytic acid into inositol, or phosphoinositide and phosphoric acid. This product can eliminate the monogastric animal anti-nutrient action due to non-decomposition of phytic acid so as to improve the utility of nutrition. This enzyme also reduces the environmental pollution caused by the use of phosphorus.

- Usage
Phytase can be used in animal diets when the phytate content of the diet is more than 0.2%. Generally, there is more than .2% phytate in the corn-soybean diets. Addition of Phytase in diets can release 0.1-0.12% available phytate bound phosphorus for laying poultry or broiler poultry, which means 5-6 Kg DCP (16% P in DCP) per ton will be saved.

- PURPOSE
Phytase 100,000 is recommended to be added in feed not being pelleted because of the labile nature of the product above 70°C. Research is continuing on a heat stable version. Based on research in the literature,the product should work best when added 500-1,000 grams per metric ton of finished feed to standard corn/soy rations. Levels with other feedstuffs should be determined experimentally. These recommendations should be used as a guideline to develop a feeding program using Phytase. The product can be mixed with a variety of other digestive feed enzymes to produce a custom formulated product. These include cellulase, Mannanase, xylanase or hemi-cellulase. This also can be included into our COMBO Enzyme Blend product to provide a full spectrum feeding solution at an economical price.
