Phytase and Phytase Supplement
Phytic acid is widely used in plants as a reservoir of phosphoric acid. Because minerals are incorporated in protein-phytic acid-mineral complexes, the nutrient potency of minerals in certain plant foods and some plant protein isolates is reduced. Phytases can hydrolyze phosphate residues from phytic acid, thus destroying the strong affinity of phytic acid for mineral elements, so phytase can increase the nutrient titer of mineral elements, and because of the released Ca2+ Can participate in cross-linking or other reactions, thus changing the texture of plant foods.
Phytase is an extracellular enzyme that is widely found in nature and found in animals, plants, and microorganisms. Phytase is found in plant tissues such as grains, beans, vegetables, especially germinated seeds and pollen. In addition, there are many kinds of microorganisms that produce phytase in nature, such as bacteria, molds, fungi, etc.
In a broad sense, phytase refers to enzymes involved in the decomposition of phytic acid. It actually includes phytase and phosphatase. Phytase can only decompose phytic acid into a series of inositol phosphates, which cannot be thoroughly Inositol bismuth phosphate is decomposed into inositol and phosphoric acid.
Phytase (EC.3.1.3.8, phytate phosphate hydrolase) catalyzes the removal of phosphate groups from phytic acid (salt or vinegar). There are three types of phytase known to be inositol. Phospho-3-phosphohydrolase, phytate 6-phosphate hydrolase and non-specific orthophosphate monohydrolase, which hydrolyze 1 phosphate on the 3, 6, and 2 carbons of phytic acid, respectively gene. This is a generalized phytase, which does not include phosphatase.
Mechanism of action
Phytic acid→inositol D-1,2,4,5,6-pentaphosphate and inositol D-1,2,4,5-pentaphosphate→inositol 1,2,5,6-tetraphosphate→1,2 , inositol 5-triphosphate or inositol 1,2,6-triphosphate → inositol 1,2-diphosphate → inositol 2-phosphate
Effect
Consider only the replacement amount of phytase relative to calcium hydrogen phosphate, without reference to the potential nutritional value of phytase. Add to the feed according to the recommended amount, replace the calcium content of calcium hydrogen phosphate with stone powder, and fill the rest with corn, bran, etc. The amount of the phytase additive and the amount of the alternative calcium hydrogen phosphate are determined according to the actual phytate phosphorus content in the feed formulation. First, calculate the actual content of phytate phosphorus in the feed formulation, and determine the amount of phytase added (150 units of phytase per gram of phytate). Then calculate the available phosphorus after adding phytase, and then determine the amount of calcium hydrogen phosphate replacement, and the amount of stone powder added, the remaining space is filled with corn, wheat bran and other raw materials.
Enter the value of the potential phosphatase’s potential available phosphorus into the formula stock database, set the total phosphorus requirement in the feed formula (eg, the hen feed is set to 0.40–0.42%), and set the maximum amount of phytase, and finally Optimize calculations using a recipe software system.
Enter the total nutritional value of the provided phytase into the formula stock database, set the maximum amount of phytase in the raw material dosage limit, do not make any adjustment to the formula requirement, and optimize the calculation directly by the formula system. formula.
Phytase is generally only suitable for use in monogastric animals. Ruminants Because rumen microbes can synthesize phytase, phytase is generally not required in feed.
Modern development
As we all know, no matter how the phytase industry develops, it will be inevitable from the hot spot of the additive industry to the gradual fading. After all, it cannot support a scale of industry, but it will certainly continue to contribute to the development of feed industry. It will bring more social benefits to the industry, not necessarily corporate benefits. The Challenge Group, which plays an important role in the feed enzyme preparation industry, has been making unremitting efforts for the orderly development of the industry!
Today’s science is developing at an alarming rate, and the world’s minds are changing. In the past, we would think of what to do for “environmental protection.” Right now, in remote rural areas, people also know that protecting the environment is protect yourself. — — “Plus” a little phytase, you can “reduce” a lot of pollution. The subtleties of this addition and subtraction make people think infinitely: along the track of science and technology, we will have our non-polluted sky back.
