Effects of a Monocomponent Protease on Performance Parameters and Protein Digestibility in Broiler Chickens

Abstract: The impact of dietary fortification of an exogenous mono component protease enzyme with or without its matrix values (ME 31.5 Kcal, CP 0.84%, methionine 0.018%, lysine 0.05%, threonine 0.034%) on growth performance traits, feed digestibility, serum parameters, selected immune parameters, total counts of ileal clostridia species, carcass traits as well as duodenal histomorphological picture was studied. A total of 300-day old chicks (Cobb500) were randomly assigned to five separate floor pens equal experimental… Show more

“…Protease supplementation also increases hydrolysis of antinutritional protein-origin factors such as trypsin and lectin inhibitors, enhancing the use efficiency of AA (Ghazi et al, 2002), even as supplied as "on top" (Fru-Nji et al, 2011;Kamel et al, 2015).…”

“…Researchers (Bedford & Schulze, ; Erdaw, Perez‐Maldonado, Bhuiyan, & Iji, ) suggested also that supplementation with microbial enzymes could reduce the negative impacts of ANFs in feedstuffs and thereby increase the bioavailability of nutrients (Martinez‐Amezcua, Parsons, & Baker, ), by reducing nutrient excretion (Adeola & Cowieson, ). Kamel, Ragaa, El‐Banna, and Mohamed () reported that supplementation with monocomponent protease improved protein digestibility. In a review, Nahm () concluded that supplementation of broiler diets with exogenous enzymes could reduce N excretion by up to 40%.…”

“…However, this fact did not occur in the present study, where the diets were based on corn, soybean meal and meat-and-bone meal. Kamel et al (2015) reported that the highest level of the major crystalline amino acids (methionine, lysine and threonine) provided in the diets associated with protease supplementation for broilers were the factors that most affected the carcass characteristics, regardless of metabolizable energy level and crude protein. This may led to an increase in the weight of the broiler's viscera, without altering the carcass yield and noble cuts.…”

“…Protease supplementation in diets for broilers is a relevant tool to improve the efficiency in utilizing vegetable and animal protein (Stefanello et al, 2016;Vieira et al, 2016;Cowieson et al, 2018). Protease promotes a higher degradation of antinutritional factors present in feedstuffs improves protein digestibility and decreases synthesis of endogenous enzymes, resulting in higher availability of amino acids for protein deposition (Angel et al, 2011;Kamel et al, 2015).…”
