Description
What it is. Enzyme preparation containing alpha-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) produced by fermentation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NCIMB 30251, supplied as a solid with a minimum activity of 101 050 DNS/g of additive.
What it is for. This technological additive belongs to functional group 1k, additives for silage, intended for all animal species. It is used to support starch hydrolysis during the ensiling process, promoting fermentation of starch-rich forages. When used alone, without combination with other enzymes or microorganisms as silage additives, the minimum dose is 10 DNS/kg of fresh matter.
Points to watch. Storage conditions and thermal processing stability must be specified in the instructions for use of the additive and premixtures. Given inhalation risks, operators must implement operational procedures and, where needed, wear personal protective equipment including respiratory protection. A related pig study on amylase supplementation illustrates a possible anti-incretin effect but does not establish a feeding recommendation.
