“…CP (5.4 and 6.3%), CF (14.5 and 35.8%), CA (48.2 and 45.8%), and production index (10.2 and 15.1%), respectively. These results are in agreement with those reported by Al-Harthi (2006) and Attia et al (2003aAttia et al ( , 2003bAttia et al ( , 2008. The improvement in BW and BWG which resulted from supplementation of either multienzyme plus phytase or phytase alone may be due to the improvement in the availability and absorption of nutrients through increasing the digestibility of the ingested diets, as proposed by Attia (2003), Choct (2006), Abudabos (2012), and Nourmohammadi et al (2012).…”

“…The anti-nutritional effects of NSPs have been reported (Choct and Annison, 1990;Choct, 2006;Attia et al, 2008). Birds do not produce enzymes, such as cellulase, xylanase, phytase etc., that are required for the digestion of NSPs and phytates.…”

“…Birds do not produce enzymes, such as cellulase, xylanase, phytase etc., that are required for the digestion of NSPs and phytates. Supplementation of NSP degrading enzymes and phytase may not only reduce the anti-nutritive effects of NSPs and phytates (Attia, 2003), but also releases some nutrients that could be utilised by the birds (Attia et al, 2003a(Attia et al, , 2003b(Attia et al, , 2008. Supplementing multi-enzyme or phytase to corn-soy based broiler diets increased growth performance in comparison to unsupplemented diets (Kavitha et al, 2003;Choct, 2006).…”

“…However, improved performance of poultry depends on dietary composition and type of supplemented enzyme (Attia, 2003;Abudabos, 2012;Nourmohammadi et al, 2012). The use of an enzyme complex containing carbohydrases and phytase should improve the ability of broilers, laying hens, ducks and Japanese quail to use the energy, protein, P and Ca they obtain from the diet (Attia, 2003;Attia et al, 2003aAttia et al, , 2003bAttia et al, , 2008Cowieson et al, 2006;Yang et al, 2010) and a small amount of these nutrients can be added to the diet. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of phytase with or without multienzyme supplementation on performance and nutrient digestibility of young broiler chicks fed mash or crumble diets.…”

A total of 210 unsexed 1-day old Arbor Acres broiler chicks were wing banded and randomly distributed among 30 cages of 7 birds per cage keeping equal initial BW during days 1-20 of age. A factorial design (2×3) was used in which there were two feed forms (mash vs crumble diet) and three enzyme treatments (unsupplemented, phytase, phytase plus multienzyme). Each treatment was replicated 5 times with 7 chicks per replicate. Body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of fed chicks were significantly improved when the crumble diet was administered. However, feed intake of chicks fed on the crumble feeds was significantly lower than those fed the mash diet. Digestibility of ether extract and crude fiber was significantly greater in groups fed the crumble diet than those fed the mash diet. Enzyme supplementation significantly and similarly increased growth and production index, and improved FCR. Also greater digestibility of crude protein and crude ash was observed but growth during days 8-14 of age and crude fibre digestibility were significantly greater in chicks receiving the multienzyme plus phytase supplement than those receiving phytase alone. Crumble feed supplemented with multienzyme resulted in the highest performance and nutrient digestibility of broilers during days 1-20 of age.

“…These enzymes increase nutrient digestibility, improve nutrient utilization and reduce nutrient wastes, and limit antinutritional factors (Attia and Abd ElRahman, 2001;Attia et al, 2003;2008;Madrid et al, 2010;Flores-Cervantes et al, 2011).…”

Brown marine algae (BMA; Sargassum dentifebium) were collected from Jeddah on the shores of the Red Sea and sun dried at an average daily temperature of 40°C until constant weight was obtained. Part of the sun dried brown marine algae was subsequently processed by boiling (BBMA; boiled brown marine algae) in water and by autoclaving (ABMA; autoclaved brown marine algae). The SBMA, BBMA and ABMA were included in laying hen diet during weeks 23-42 of age at concentrations of 0.0%, 3.0% and 6.0%. The diets were given with or without enzyme supplementation. This resulted in 3 (preparation methods) × 2 (concentrations of supplemented BMA, i.e. 3 and 6%) × 2 (with and without enzyme supplementation) diet programs plus two control groups (with and without enzyme supplementation) for a total of 14 treatments. Each treatment was represented by six replicates of five hens each. Sun dried or autocalved brown marine algae at 3% without enzyme supplementation in the laying hen diet could be fed to laying hens without any adverse effect on laying performance. However, enzyme supplementation to a diet containing 6% autocalved brown marine algae improved productive performance and eggshell quality.
