Exogenous phytase and intestinal uptakes of amino acids

358
The apparent digestibility of amino acids can be increased considerably by hydrolysis of the phytate molecule by phytase.

PETER SELLE, SHEMIL MACELLINE, PETER CHRYSTAL and SONIA YUN LIU* discuss how phytase generates pronounced improvements in apparent amino acid digestibilities.
Exogenous phytases increased apparent ileal digestibility coefficients of 17 amino acids by an average of 4.13% (0.833 versus 0.800) in one m...
