Rovabio™ for Corn and
Soybean Diets

 View data in: Units / lb Units / kg

 

Rovabio™ Excel has a positive effect on corn/soybean diets
Because Rovabio™ Excel has more than 2 or 3 global enzyme activities, Rovabio™ is a multi-enzyme preparation containing mainly:

  • cellobio-hydrolases
  • xylanases
  • endo-glucanases
  • beta-glucosidases
  • laminarinases
  • xylosidases
  • arabinofuranosidases
  • plus other enzymes such as proteases

Corn and soybean are also concerned by NSPs (Non-starch polysaccharides)

How to measure the improvement of the nutritional value of broiler feeds

Digestibility methodology - Growing Broilers
  • Ad-libitum feeding :
    • 0-16 days Standard feed
    • 17-28 days Feed with or without enzyme

      3 days adaptation
      4 days excreta collection
  • Experimental design :
    • 2 broilers per cage
    • 6 replicates per treatment
      (12 broilers / treatment)
  • Collection of excreta
    Twice per day
  • Analytical measurements :
    • Feed intake per cage
    • Individual weight gain
    • Gross energy of feeds
    • Gross energy of excreta
Apparent Metabolizable
Energy (N=0)
