@Dr Pragati Salutgi You are absolutely right. The enzymes are always substrate specific. While designing the enzyme products, we always consider the general composition of diet. We only consider the type of cereals and protein sources used. Otherwise we have to design tailor-made enzymes. Similarly, ME utilisation always depends on composition of diet because of which we always underestimate or overestimate energy values of feed. Biological variation is always there. We should give...

@Kevin Stickney In theory, yes. You could offer feed and oyster shell, etc., and they would balance their nutrient needs. The practical issue is that birds invariably take too much oyster shell because of its novel texture. We see this in small flocks where a calcium feeder is set up. Birds consume 8-10g/d of oyster shell and then soft shelled eggs appear because of an induced P deficiency. You could give two diets, High and Low in Ca, and they would balance themselves, but that becomes a...
Quite correct in your opinions. Also, adding more than one enzyme at a type can muddy the water on value. People can freeze on the bulk ingredients not knowing which substrate is benefiting from the enzymes and miss beneficial changes on the feed costs....

Dear @Tarusenga Munyanyi, In short, it is crucial to monitor the evolution of the virus and compare with the existing vaccine options. At Kemin Biologics we have a continuous monitoring programme and have continuous updates of the vaccine seed according to virus evolution. In addition, we offer vaccines with multiple viral clades included to provide a buffer for virus reassortment through cross-protection. Here is some more extensive explanation: As High...
