Mechanisms by which phytase superdosing delivers peformance gains to be presented by AB Vista at APPC 2014

18 September 2014The potential performance benefits from phytate degradation beyond simple phosphorus (P) release and the mechanisms by which this is achieved will be the key themes in a paper to be presented at the 10th Asia Pacific Poultry Conference (APPC) 2014 by AB Vista’s Research Director, Dr Mike Bedford. “Latest figures suggest that 93% of the poultry feed in Asia is currently treated with a phytase feed enzyme, yet the majority is targeted only at P release, and then rarely to recover more than 0.13% available P (AvP),” states Dr Yingjun (Y.J.) Ru, AB Vista’s Technical Sales
