We investigated the effects of protease (Ronozyme ProAct, PRO) supplementation on the AID of 3 cereals in the presence or not of a multi-enzyme complex with β-glucanase and β-xylanase activity (GLU+XYL). The AID of most of AA was higher for corn and wheat than for barley. The inclusion of GLU+XYL increased the AID of DM, CP and of all the AA, except Met and Lys. The inclusion of PRO increased the AID of Gly and tended to increase that of most of the other AA. The combination of both enzymes did not improve further AA digestibility any.
CONCLUSIONS
ABSTRACT
The supplementation of the 2 enzymes in isolation showed some benefits on AID of the AA but no further effect was seen when these were combined. The inclusion of XYL improved the AID of DM and of all AA and CP except Met and Lys .The combination of both enzymes however, did not improve AA digestibility any further. Trends observed when combining different enzyme activities in short term digestibility trials need further study and may not reflect the response seen combining different enzyme combinations on animal performance studies or digestibility studies when fed as part of a complete diet from hatch to slaughter.
