Phytase is a feed enzyme fermented with an excellent genetic engineering strain and produced by advanced post treatment. Phytase can break down phytic acid in feed and liberate phosphorus.

Functions of Phytase

(1) Hydrolyze phytate in feeds, release digestible phosphorus, and increase the utilization of phosphorus in feed.

(2) Reduce the amount of supplemental inorganic P to lower the feed cost.

(3) Decrease the harmful environmental impact of phosphorus from animal manure in areas with intensive livestock production.

(4) Release other essential nutrients like proteins and inorganic cations, to give the feed a higher nutritional value.

Definition of Activity Phytase

One unit of phytase activity (U) is defined as the amount of enzyme, which liberates 1 micromole of inorganic phosphorus per minute from 5.0 mmol/L of sodium phytase solution at pH 5.5 and 37 ℃.
