Exogenous enzymes in diets for broilers

Abstract: SUMMARYThe aimed of the study was to evaluate the effect of the inclusion of different levels of an enzyme complex consisting of phytase, protease, xylanase, β-glucanase, cellulase, amylase, and pectinase on the parameters of performance, carcass yield and meat quality of broilers. Six hundred broiler chicks were used, and the animals were females with one day of age, from the Cobb 500 strain, and distributed in a completely randomized design, with five levels of inclusion of the enzyme complex (0, 100, 200, 3… Show more

“…These results are similar to the findings by [8,12,[31][32][33][34]. The effect of the enzyme cocktail was attributed to improved digestibility and increased protein and energy availability for growth [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40].…”

“…These authors indicated that application with enzymes did not affect carcass parameters and body organs of broilers and Japanese quail except for liver percent that was reduced with multienzymes application. Likewise, carcass traits were not influenced by dietary enzyme addition to broiler chicken diets [29,40,41].…”

“…Além disso, Dalólio et al (2016) relatam que a utilização de complexos enzimáticos pode promover maior rendimento de carcaça e deposição de carne, consequentemente, com este aumento na deposição de proteína pode alterar o tipo e a forma de fibra a ser depositada no substrato e pode, portanto, modificar os parâmetros de qualidade da carne.…”

“…The use of exogenous enzymes has been investigated in animal nutrition due to their ability to improve the use of low-digestible ingredients (Barbosa et al, 2014); reduce nutrients losses through excretion as well as environmental pollution (Leite et al, 2011); and improve performance and carcass characteristics in broilers (Dalólio et al, 2016).…”
