Effect of different doses of phytase and protein content of soybean meal on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and bone characteristics of broilers

Abstract: This study evaluated the effects of high phytase doses and soybean meal ( SBM ) with different CP content on growth performance, ileal nutrient digestibility, digestible energy, plasmatic myo -inositol, phosphate release in vitro, and bone composition of broiler chickens. One thousand two hundred 1-day-old broilers were distributed in a 2 × 2 completely randomized factorial arrangement, with 2 phytase doses (1,000 and 2,500 phytase units [ FYT … Show more

“…As birds’ feed intake is based on the dietary energy level, the higher availability of some nutrients (including energy) in diets with added phytase could explain the reduced intake and improved conversion rate of animals fed with added phytases. Moreover, an age effect on phytase efficacy, according to which this effect is more evident in young animals due to the immaturity of the digestive enzymes and acids, has been reported by other studies in broilers [ 19 , 20 , 33 ] and in pigs [ 29 ].…”

“…In two of their experiments, they observed higher day-21 BW for birds fed diets with 1000 FTU of an uncoated phytase, compared to birds fed diets with the same inclusion of a coated phytase and a negative control with no phytase inclusion. Several studies have obtained similar results of increased body weight and feed intake with phytase supplementation at low and high inclusion levels [ 40 , 41 ]. This may be caused by the activity of phytase in the gastrointestinal tract, which contributes to the breakdown of IP 6 and lesser phytate esters, therefore increasing the availability of phytate-bound nutrients [ 41 , 42 ].…”

This may be caused by the activity of phytase in the gastrointestinal tract, which contributes to the breakdown of IP 6 and lesser phytate esters, therefore increasing the availability of phytate-bound nutrients [ 41 , 42 ]. Additionally, these data indicate that apart from improving nutrient utilization, phytase also stimulates a feed intake response and, consequently, improves BW.…”
