Selected group of enzymes are in demand due to their ability to improve animal performance and reduce nutritional variation in raw materials. Specifically, protease enzymes have the potential to improve protein digestibility.

Proteases break down complex proteins into shorter proteins, called peptides, and amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. They are also capable of taking apart proteins that bind starch within feed ingredients, thus making more of the energy found in starch available to the animal.

In the feed enzymes industry, there is a growing demand for enzymes that can enhance animal performance and minimize nutritional variations in raw materials. Among these enzymes, proteases play a crucial role in improving protein digestibility. By breaking down complex proteins into peptides and amino acids, proteases facilitate efficient nutrient absorption and utilization by animals. Additionally, proteases can also disrupt protein-starch complexes, unlocking the energy potential of starch in feed ingredients. The utilization of enzymes in the feed industry offers a promising avenue to optimize animal nutrition and support overall animal health and performance.
