“…Lupin meal contains a variety of NSPs (Cheetham et al, 1993), so various NSPdegrading enzymes could theoretically eliminate the problem. Indeed, individual NSP-degrading enzymes, such as pectinase and xylanase, have been shown to improve growth of broilers fed lupin-based diets (Choct et al, 1999;Ali et al, 2006Ali et al, , 2009Esmaeilipour et al, 2011;Coppedge et al, 2012). The present study extends this concept to Japanese quail.…”

In poultry, feeding diets including high concentrations of non-starch polysaccharides limits growth rate and feed conversion ratio, and causes problems in health and welfare because of the production of wet droppings. This problem is becoming more important as pressure builds to reduce costs by using alternative sources of dietary protein, such as lupin grain, rather than fish- or soybean-meal. We therefore tested whether enzymes that break down non-starch polysaccharides can overcome the problems with a lupin-based diet fed to Japanese quail. Chicks (18 days old) were allocated among 8 treatments, each replicated 3 times, with 12 chicks per replicate (ie, 36 birds per treatment). Chicks were fed diets formulated to contain 24% crude protein and 12 MJ/kg apparent metabolisable energy (AME). The diets included 10% or 20% lupin meal and, for each level of lupin, they were formulated in one of four ways: 1) no enzyme; 2) pectinase (1.4 U/g polygalacturonase and 0.2 U/g pectinesterase); 3) xylanase (1,4 endo-xylanase; 0.38 U/g); 4) combination of the above pectinase and xylanase treatments. The results indicated that, from age 28 days of age, both lupin content and enzyme treatment significantly (P < 0.05) affected chick performance. Compared with the no-enzyme control, enzyme treatments improved growth at 35 days by 45-50% (P < 0.05) and feed conversion ratio by 20-30% (P < 0.05) for both levels of lupin content. In addition, dry matter digestibility and apparent metabolizable energy were significantly improved by the combined enzyme treatment for both levels of lupin inclusion. We conclude that pectinase and xylanase can overcome the negative effects of the non-starch polysaccharides in lupin meal, improving the growth of quail chicks fed lupin-based diets, and that the enzymes work best when combined.

“…The most widely used NSPases are b-xylanase and b-glucanase which target arabinoxylan and b-glucan substrates that predominate in cereal grains (Adeola and Cowieson 2011). Dietary xylanase supplementation has been reported to improve the energy utilisation (Campasino et al 2015;Willams et al 2018) and performance (Coppedge et al 2012;Latham et al 2016) of broiler chickens. Likewise, b-glucanase supplementation led to an increase in the broiler's performance (J ozefiak et al 2006).…”

This trial was conducted to investigate the effects of multi-carbohydrase supplementation on the performance, carcase traits, intestinal histomorphology, caecal microbiota and nutrient digestibility of broiler chickens fed diets with varying energy levels. A total of 400-day-old male chicks were allocated into eight dietary treatments in a 4 Â 2 factorial arrangement with 5 replicates per treatment. There were 4 dietary energy levels (the standard breed recommendation and reductions of 50, 100 and 150 kcal/kg from the standard) with or without multi-carbohydrase supplementation. Reducing the energy level by 50 kcal/kg did not significantly impact the measured parameters compared to the standard recommendation while it is reducing by 100 and 150 kcal/kg resulted in significant decreases in the body weight (BW) by levels up to 4.41% and a significant increase in the feed conversion ratio (FCR) by levels up to 4.67%. Enzyme supplementation significantly improved the BW and FCR by 3.24% and 2.95%, respectively. Dietary energy lowered by 100-150 kcal/kg resulted in a significant decrease in the dressing (up to 2.42%), breast yield (up to 2.82%), fat pads (up to 8.72%), liver (up to 6.30%) percentages and coliform count (up to 28.5%). The digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, ether extract and gross energy was increased due to enzyme supplementation by 4.15, 3.50, 3.35 and 3.72%, respectively. In conclusion, broiler performance and carcase traits can be negatively impacted if the energy density is reduced by 100-150 kcal/kg diet. Enzyme supplementation can improve the performance and nutrient digestibility regardless of the dietary energy level. HIGHLIGHTSThe metabolisable energy level can be reduced by 50 kcal/kg diets compared to the breed recommendation. Decreasing the energy level by 100 or 150 kcal/kg diet compared to breed recommendations resulted in a negative impact on the performance. Multicarbohydrase blend supplementation resulted in significant improvements in the performance and nutrient digestibility.

“…Some authors reported that supplementing carbohydrase enzymes could improve the nutrient utilisation in a corn-soybean meal based diets (Meng and Slominski 2005). Similar results were also observed in diets which were supplemented with a cocktail enzyme (Coppedge et al 2012). Results indicated that NSPdegrading enzymes had the potential to improve growth performance and carcase traits of broiler chickens.…”

Two trials were conducted to investigate the effects of different corn conditioning temperature and enzyme supplementation on nutrient utilisation, growth performance, and small intestine morphology in broiler chickens. In trial one, nutrient utilisation were determined in basal diets. These diets contained unconditioned or conditioned corn (temperatures 55, 70 and 85 C) supplemented with enzyme (Rovabio V R ) at the levels of 0 and 0.5 g/kg. Total excreta collection was performed with 144 chicks in 8 treatments with 6 replicates and 3 birds each, during 7-9 d. In trial two, 576 day-old broilers were distributed in 8 treatments, 6 pens and 12 chicks each. Birds were fed with diets containing conditioned corn in aforementioned temperatures and enzyme levels. A completely randomised design with 4 Â 2 factorial arrangement was used in both trials. Conditioning of corn and enzyme supplementation had no significant effects on apparent metabolisable energy (AME) of corn and apparent total tract retention (ATTR) of corn nitrogen (N). In second trial, no significant differences were observed in growth performance of broilers during 1-24 d. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) in birds fed diets containing conditioned corn at 85 C was significantly higher than that of 55 and 70 C during 1-10 d. Corn conditioning significantly increased villus width (VW) and crypt depth (CD) but decreased VW:CD ratio. Enzyme supplementation increased jejunum villus height (VH), VW and ileal lactobacillus count and decreased pancreas weight at 24 d (p < .05). Generally, corn conditioning and enzyme supplementation did not significantly affect growth performance and carcase traits of broilers during 1-24 d, but improved histology and microbial population of small intestine. HIGHLIGHTSConditioning of corn used in mash diets of broiler chickens increased the population of bifidobacteria. Enzyme supplementation to the diets of broilers increased the height and width of intestinal villi. Enzyme supplementation to the diets of broilers decreased relative weight of pancreas.
