Description
What it is. Enzyme preparation combining endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6), produced from Talaromyces versatilis (IMI 378536 and DSM 26702). It is supplied as a solid or liquid form, with minimum activity levels defined for each enzyme and physical state.
What it is for. This preparation is used as a digestibility enhancer in poultry feed (chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying, laying hens, turkeys for fattening, turkeys reared for breeding, minor poultry species). It hydrolyses arabinoxylans and beta-glucans present in cereal-based diets, reducing digesta viscosity and improving nutrient availability. The authorised inclusion level in feed is 1 100 VU of xylanase and 760 VU of glucanase per kg for poultry.
Points to watch. Storage conditions and thermal stability during pelleting must be stated in the instructions for use of the additive and premixtures. Operators must implement operational procedures and organisational measures to manage handling risks; where these are insufficient, respiratory and skin protection is required during use.
