Description

Minimum 10,000 FTU/g activity bacterial 6-phytase enzyme produced by Pichia pastoris

Pack Sizes

Available in 20kg bags

Action

Phytase makes phosphorous available for the animal, from indigestible phytin bound phosphorous within feed materials. Optiphos also improves the availability of other nutrients and minerals as phytate is an anti-nutritional factor (ANF) which binds nutrients. Optiphos breaks down phytate, hence releasing other nutrients from the molecule. As a 6-phytase (beginning at phosphorous in position 6 on the phytate molecule) more ANF breakdown occurs, improving growth rates and FCR.

Indication

Suitable for broilers, chickens reared for laying, laying hens, turkeys for fattening, turkeys for breeding, piglets (weaned), pigs for fattening and sows to improve the digestibility of phytin-bound phosphorous in feed as well as improving the utilisation of other nutrient substances, such as proteins, calcium, microelements and amino acids.

Dosage

To be used orally after fully mixing with feed
Laying hens 30 - 50 grams per tonne feed (providing 300 - 500 FTU/kg)
Other animals (including broiler chickens, turkeys, pigs) 50 grams per tonne feed (providing 500 FTU/kg)
