Effects of feeding corn-expressed phytase on the live performance, bone characteristics, and phosphorus digestibility of nursery pigs

An abstract of a study by Broomhead et al determining the efficacy of a corn-expressed phytase on the live performance, bone characteristics, and P digestibility of nursery pigs fed a reduced-P diet is presented. In conclusion, 500 FTU CEP/kg improved growth, ATTD of P, BBS, and bone ash when added...

Zusammenfassung:An abstract of a study by Broomhead et al determining the efficacy of a corn-expressed phytase on the live performance, bone characteristics, and P digestibility of nursery pigs fed a reduced-P diet is presented. In conclusion, 500 FTU CEP/kg improved growth, ATTD of P, BBS, and bone ash when added to a reduced-P diet, and 4,000 FTU CEP/kg increased growth beyond the PC treatment.
