Effects of Supplemental Xylanase, Cereal Grain Source, and Age on Caecal Volatile Fatty Acid Concentrations of Broilers from 14 to 42 Days of Age
Published:June 14, 2021
Summary
Supplemental xylanase may be used in diet formulation to reduce diet cost, mitigate the antinutritive effects of arabinoxylans, increase energy utilization, and improve growth performance of broilers. Xylanase has been shown to partially depolymerize arabinoxylans, which can reduce intestinal viscosity, reduce nutrient encapsulation, and modulate the intestinal microflora of broilers (Choct et al...
According to the results of the article, in terms of volatile fatty acid (VFA), is the permissible limit for the use of cereal grains, for example, wheat grains and barley grains or bran of grains and rice defined and specified. What do you recommend if the amount of volatile fatty acid (VFA) increases? For example, the surface of cereal grain containing cell wall or non-starch carbohydrates is reduced. or reduce the amount of exogenous enzyme. Please give a clear answer. In addition, the amount of volatile fatty acid (VFA) may have a nutritional effect. Thankful
