Phytase Enzyme
Introduction
Introduction Phytase is a specialized enzyme widely used in animal nutrition, feed processing. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytic acid (phytate), releasing bound phosphorus and improving nutrient availability in plant-based materials. Phytase plays a critical role in enhancing mineral absorption and improving feed efficiency by breaking down anti-nutritional phytate complexes commonly present in grains, oilseeds, legumes, and cereals.
Source
Phytase is commonly produced through controlled microbial fermentation using selected microorganisms such as: Aspergillus Spp Bacillus Spp The enzyme is purified and standardized under controlled manufacturing conditions to ensure consistent activity, stability, and performance.
