Kindly share your research if any on exogenous enzyme supplementation of fish feed.
Non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) and phytates are the main antinutritional components in the feed. NSPs are complex components as they composed of a variety of chemical compounds. Multi-enzyme cocktails act better in disrupting and depolimerization of these complex NSPs compared to a single enzyme. Also, a diversified multienzyme system breaks down the bonds between NSPs and phytates rendering nutrients more available for dissimilation.
I very much appreciate the answer given by the previous scientist. The substrate is not a pure material It is a mixture of components. To break down the various components studded therein, the exogenously supplied multi enzyme complex will always work better than a single enzyme.
- Moreover, many enzymes are denatured in the manufacture of foodstuffs, or the need for complementation
Multi enzymes are working on feed stuffs as synergistic effect (to complete each others) to enhance the digestion of nutrients in mono-gastric animals and ruminants.
