Inositol and gradient phytase supplementation in broiler diets during a 6-week production period: 2. Effects on phytate degradation and inositol liberation in gizzard and ileal digesta contents1

An experiment was conducted to evaluate effects of dietary phytase and inositol supplementation on phytate degradation in gizzard and ileal digesta contents of broilers from 1 to 43 d of age. One thousand nine hundred and twenty Yield Plus × Ross 708 male chicks were placed in 64 floor pens (30 bird...

Zusammenfassung:An experiment was conducted to evaluate effects of dietary phytase and inositol supplementation on phytate degradation in gizzard and ileal digesta contents of broilers from 1 to 43 d of age. One thousand nine hundred and twenty Yield Plus × Ross 708 male chicks were placed in 64 floor pens (30 birds/pen). Each pen received 1 of 8 dietary treatments from 1 to 43 d of age. Treatment 1 was formulated to contain 0.165 and 0.150% lower calcium and phosphorus, respectively, than treatment 7. Treatments 2 to 6 were formulated by adding phytase at 500, 1,500, 4,500, 13,500, and 40,500 phytase units (FTU)/kg, respectively, to treatment 1. Treatment 8 was established by adding inositol to treatment 7 based on the maximum inositol liberation in treatment 6. At 15, 29, and 43 d of age, gizzard contents, ileal digesta, and blood were collected for analysis of inositol and inositol phosphate (IP) 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 concentrations. Increasing phytase from 0 to 40,500 FTU/kg resulted in log-quadratic reductions (P
