Walk CL, Osunbami OT, Adeola O. Description of 3 failed attempts to estimate the calcium equivalency of phytase for growth performance and tibia ash of broiler chickens when using graded dietary levels of limestone. Poult Sci 2024; 103:103330. [PMID: 38113707 PMCID: PMC10770738 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2023.103330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 11/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Three broiler experiments were conducted to estimate the Ca equivalency of a novel phytase using direct and indirect methods. All 3 experiments employed 4 concentrations of limestone to create 4 reference diets, deficient in nonphytate P, with increasing dietary Ca. Phytase was supplemented to the lowest Ca reference diet at 350, 700, 1,400, or 2,800 FYT/kg in experiment (Exp.) 1 and Exp. 2 and at 500, 1,000, 2,000, or 4,000 FYT/kg in Exp. 3. Broilers were fed from d 8 to 10 and 20 to 24, 19 to 21, or 7 to 10 and 7 to 21 posthatching in Exp. 1, 2, or 3, respectively. Diet did not affect growth performance or tibia ash in Exp. 1. Reducing the dietary Ca linearly (P < 0.05) increased body weight gain (BWG) and feed intake (FI) in Exp. 2 or Exp. 3. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) was decreased (linear or quadratic, P < 0.05) as dietary Ca was reduced in Exp. 2 or Exp. 3 (d 7-21). Tibia ash percent linearly (P < 0.05) decreased as dietary Ca decreased in Exp. 3 but only from d 7 to 21 and phytase increased (linear or quadratic, P < 0.05) FI and BWG, and decreased FCR. In Exp. 1 (d 8-10) and Exp. 2, apparent ileal digestibility (AID), total tract retention, and apparent digested and retained Ca or P increased (linear or quadratic, P < 0.05) as dietary Ca decreased. Phytase increased (linear or quadratic, P < 0.05) AID and apparent digested and retained Ca or P in Exp. 1 or Exp. 2. Due to the nature of the effect of dietary Ca on performance or tibia ash, it was not possible to use the indirect method to estimate the Ca equivalence of phytase in the current experiments. The total and digestible Ca equivalence of phytase could be estimated using the direct method. These experiments highlight challenges to consider when designing experiments to estimate the Ca equivalency for phytase in the future.

Walk CL, Veluri S, Olukosi OA. Ileal mineral digestibility and expression of nutrient transporter genes of broiler chickens in response to variable dietary total Ca and phytase supplementation are influenced by time on experimental diet and age of the birds. Poult Sci 2024; 103:103326. [PMID: 38157789 PMCID: PMC10790082 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2023.103326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Two experiments were conducted to determine the impact of Ca, phytase, sampling time, and age on the digestibility (AID) of Ca and P and the expression of their transporters. Cobb 500 male chicks (N = 600) were used in each experiment and allocated to cages with 10 (Exp 1, 8-11 d) or 5 (Exp 2, 21-24 d) birds/cage and 10 (Exp 1) or 20 (Exp 2) reps/treatment. Treatments were a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement, with low (LOW) or standard (STD) Ca level and 3 phytase (PHY) levels (0, 300, or 3,000 FYT/kg). Ileal digesta were collected at 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h, and jejunum tissues at 12, 48, and 72 h after the start of feeding experimental diets. In Exp 1, there was no effect of Ca or phytase on the AID of Ca at 8, 12, or 24 h. Phytase increased the AID of P (P < 0.05) at all time points, and the magnitude was influenced by Ca. At 12 h, the mRNA level of P (NaPi-IIb) and Ca (CaSR) transporters was greatest in the LOW diets without phytase (Ca × PHY, P ≤ 0.06). In Exp 2, the STD diet decreased the AID of Ca and P (P < 0.05) at 8, 24, 48, or 72 h. Phytase increased the AID of Ca (P < 0.05) at 8, 12, and 24 h, and decreased the AID of Ca (quadratic, P < 0.05) in the STD diet (48 h). The AID of P (P < 0.05) increased with phytase at all sampling times. At 48 h, 3,000 FYT/kg decreased (P < 0.05) mRNA expression of NaPi-IIb and Ca transporter ATP2B1 in the STD diet (Ca × PHY, P < 0.05). In conclusion, to avoid adaptation of broilers to Ca and P deficiencies, the optimal time on experimental diets is ≤ 48 h for young broilers and ≤ 24 h in older birds due to up- or down-regulation of Ca and P transporters in response to dietary Ca, P, and phytase.

Sung JY, Emmert BJ, Karcher DM, Walk CL, Adeola O. Phosphorus equivalency of exogenous phytase relative to phosphorus in monosodium phosphate in broiler chickens. Poult Sci 2024; 103:103248. [PMID: 38006776 PMCID: PMC10701438 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2023.103248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of this study was to estimate phosphorus (P) equivalency of exogenous phytase relative to P from monosodium phosphate (MSP) in broiler chickens. To attain this objective, the impact of dietary MSP or exogenous phytase on growth performance, ileal digestibility of P, and bone characteristics in broiler chickens was assessed. Six experimental diets consisting of a P-deficient basal diet based on corn and soybean meal, basal diet plus 0.9 or 1.8 g/kg of inorganic P from MSP, and basal diet plus 500, 1,000, or 2,000 FYT/kg of exogenous phytase. Calcium to P ratio in all diets was maintained at 1.5:1. A total of 576 male broiler chickens (Cobb 500; initial BW = 190 ± 17 g) on d 8 post hatching were allotted to the 6 dietary treatments in a randomized complete block design using BW as a blocking factor. Each dietary treatment contained 8 replicate cages with 12 birds per cage. On d 11 post hatching, 7 birds from each cage were euthanized by CO2 asphyxiation and dissected for the collection of ileal digesta. On d 18, ileal digesta were also collected from the remaining 5 birds in each cage. The left femur and tibia were collected from the bird with the median BW on d 11 and 18 from each cage, and analyzed for bone breaking strength and bone ash. Weight gain and gain-to-feed ratio linearly or quadratically increased (P < 0.05) in every period as the inclusion rate of MSP or phytase increased. Ileal digestibility of P linearly increased (P < 0.05) on d 11 with increasing MSP, but there was no significant effect on d 18. Increasing phytase concentration linearly increased (P < 0.05) ileal digestibility of P on d 11 and 18. Increasing dietary MSP or phytase linearly increased ileal digestible P concentration in diets (P < 0.05). Bone breaking strength and bone ash linearly or quadratically increased (P < 0.05) with increasing inclusion rate of MSP or phytase on d 11 and 18. The equivalency of 1,000 FYT/kg of exogenous phytase based on dietary ileal digestible P concentration was 1.5 and 1.2 g/kg of inorganic P in diets on d 11 and 18, respectively. The current results showed that the supplementation of MSP or exogenous phytase can increase growth performance, ileal P digestibility, bone breaking strength, and bone ash in young broiler chickens.

A novel consensus bacterial 6-phytase variant improves the responses of laying hens fed an inorganic phosphorus-free diet with reduced energy and nutrients from 23 to 72 wk of age. Poult Sci 2023; 102:102949. [PMID: 37540948 PMCID: PMC10407903 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2023.102949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a novel consensus bacterial 6-phytase variant (PhyG) on egg productivity, eggshell quality, and body composition of laying hens fed inorganic phosphate-free diets with reduced energy and nutrients from 23 to 72 wk of age. Five treatments were randomly assigned, performing 28 replicates per treatment with 4 hens each, totaling 560 Hy-Line W80 birds. A positive control (PC) feed was formulated to contain adequate levels of energy and nutrients. A negative control (NC) feed was formulated without added inorganic phosphate (0.12% nonphytic phosphorus [nPP]) and reduced in Ca, Na, dig AA, and metabolizable energy in comparison with PC feed. Phytase was supplemented in the NC feed at 0, 300, 600, and 900 FTU/kg of feed. The responses evaluated were performance, egg quality, economic analysis, body composition, and tibia composition. Data were analyzed by a 2-factor (diet and age) repeated measure analysis. Overall, the feed intake, hen-day egg production, egg mass, and egg revenue were reduced by the complete removal of dicalcium phosphate (DCP) (P < 0.05). Supplement phytase in the NC diet elicits a positive response on each one of those variables. Laying hens consuming the NC feed with 900 FTU/kg of phytase produced more eggs per hen-housed compared with the phytase dosages of 300 and 600 FTU/kg. Body composition was not affected by dietary nPP, Ca, Na, dig AA, and energy reductions (P > 0.05). At 72-wk-old, tibia ash was reduced in hens consuming the NC diet vs. PC (P < 0.05) and no difference was observed between hens supplemented with phytase and the PC feed. Margin over feeding cost increased in a dose-dependent manner with phytase supplementation. Supplementation with 900 FTU/kg of phytase is recommended to improve the number of eggs produced per hen-housed and the number of marketable eggs produced through 23 to 72 wk of age, under this dietary setting.

Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate phosphorus (P) equivalency of phytase with various evaluation indicators of ducks in starter (0-14 days). Three hundred and twenty 1-day-old Cherry Valley ducks were randomly assigned to eight groups. The dietary treatments were four levels of available phosphorus (aP) with 0.25%, 0.32%, 0.39%, and 0.46% (treatments I-IV) and four levels of phytase added to low-aP basal diet (treatment I) with 300, 600, 900, and 1200 units (U) per kg (treatments V-VIII). The results were that compared to treatment I, increasing aP and supplementary phytase significantly (p < 0.05) improved body weight (BW), BW gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), live BW, carcass weight, semieviscerated weight, eviscerated weight, leg muscle weight, and decreased feed conversion ratio (FCR). Treatments V and VI did not significantly increase tibia ash, tibia calcium, and tibia P of 14-day-old ducks (p > 0.05). Following the increase of aP level (treatments I-IV), apparent utilization of Ca and P of ducks increased with varying degrees. With the increase of dietary phytase level (treatments V-VIII), the apparent utilization of Ca and P showed no significant difference (p > 0.05) but an increasing trend. Serum P reached the highest level when adding 600 U/kg phytase (treatment VI). Serum Ca and serum alkaline phosphatase activity showed no significant difference among treatments V-VIII (p > 0.05). Based on corn-soybean-rapeseed meal diet, with the evaluation indexes of FI, BWG, tibia ash, tibia Ca, tibia P, and apparent utilization of Ca and P, the addition of 500 U/kg phytase could release aP of 0.03%, 0.04%, 0.02%, 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.08%, and 0.07%, respectively. On the same way, the addition of 1000 U/kg phytase could release aP of 0.07%, 0.09%, 0.06%, 0.02%, 0.07%, 0.09%, and 0.09%, respectively.

Abstract
Two experiments were designed to elucidate gut and hypothalamic molecular regulation of appetite by dietary phosphorus (P) concentration in broiler chickens. Birds (192 Cobb-500 broiler chickens) were randomly assigned to 3 experimental diets in experiment 1 (Exp. 1) and 24 broiler chickens were randomly assigned to 3 treatment groups in Exp. 2. Each diet comprised 8 replicate cages, with either 8 birds (Exp. 1) or 1 bird (Exp. 2) per replicate cage. In Exp. 1, diets contained 1.2 (P-deficient), 2.8 (P-marginal) or 4.4 (P-adequate) g/kg non-phytate P (nPP). In Exp. 2, birds fed the P-adequate diet were pair-fed (PF) to the feed consumption levels of birds fed the P-deficient diet. Feed intake and BW gain (P < 0.001) decreased in birds fed the P-deficient diet in Exp. 1. Birds fed the P-deficient diet had similar feed intake and BW gain with PF group fed the P-adequate diet (Exp. 2) but was significantly lower (P < 0.001) than birds fed the P-adequate diets. Sodium-phosphate cotransporter (NaPi-IIb) mRNA was upregulated (P < 0.05) in both experiments. Conversely, cholecystokinin (CCK) mRNA was downregulated (P < 0.01) in birds fed P-deficient diets. Anorexia-related hypothalamic cholecystokinin receptor (CCKAR) and melanocortin receptors (MC3R and MC4R) were upregulated (P < 0.05) in birds fed P-deficient diets, in both experiments. The current data show that dietary P deficiency decreases feed intake in broiler chickens by altering the expression of anorexigenic genes in the gut and hypothalamus of broiler chickens.

Abstract
The objective of the present experiment was to determine the efficacy and the phosphorus (P) equivalency of phytase in the corn-soybean meal-rapeseed meal diets of Cherry Valley ducks from 1 to 35 d of age. 320 ducks were randomly divided into 8 blocks of 5 cages with 8 ducks per cage. This experiment included eight treatments diets. The available P levels of I to IV treatments were respectively 0.25%, 0.32%, 0.39%, 0.46% (d 1-14) and 0.20%, 0.27%, 0.34%, 0.41% (d 15-35). And 4 levels of phytase added to low-P basal diet (treatment I) with 300, 600, 900, and 1,200 U/kg (treatment V to VIII). Among them, treatment IV was a P-adequate positive control, treatment I was a low-P negative control. The ratio of calcium (Ca) to P was 1.3:1 for all diets. The other nutritional indexes in all diets were basically the same. Ducks were provided ad libitum access to water and experimental diets. The negative control diet reduced (P < 0.05) body weight, carcase weight, eviscerated weigh, breast muscle weight, leg muscle weight, bone ash, tibia Ca and tibia P, and increasing levels of available P and supplementary phytase significantly (P < 0.05) improved the growth performance and slaughtering performance of meat ducks. Phytase supplementation at a dose of 900 U/kg in the low-P basal diet increased the growth performance of ducks to a level comparable to that of a P-adequate diet. The available P level of 0.39% (1-14 d) and 0.34% (15-35 d) could meet the nutritional needs of meat ducks for P, and the apparent P utilization rate was high, and the effective utilization effect of P was the best. In addition, with the evaluation indexes of feed intake, body weight gain, tibia ash, tibia Ca, tibia P, content of blood Ca and P, the addition of 500 U/kg phytase could release available P of 0.02%, 0.02%, 0.02%, 0.02%, 0.01%, 0.04%, and 0.03%, respectively. In the same way, the addition of 1,000 U/kg phytase could release available phosphorus of 0.14%, 0.04%, 0.04%, 0.05%, 0.02%, 0.12%, and 0.01%, respectively.

Abstract
A total of 560 one-day-old Pekin ducks were randomly allocated to 7 treatments with 8 replicate cages of 10 ducks per cage. The treatments included a corn-rice bran-soybean meal-based diet with recommended nonphytate phosphorus (NPP) (0.40% for 1-14 D/0.35% for 15-35 D, positive control; PC), NPP-deficient diet (0.22% for 1-14 D/0.18% for 15-35 D, negative control; NC), and NC diets supplemented with different levels of phytase (500, 2,500, 5,000, 7,500, 10,000 FTU/kg). Compared with the PC diet, feeding the NC diet significantly decreased (P < 0.05) the bird growth performance, serum total protein, and albumin concentration as well as tibia bone mineralization and strength and increased (P < 0.05) serum calcium (Ca), urea content, and alkaline phosphatase activity throughout the experimental period. Phytase supplementation to NC diets at 5,000 to 10,000 FTU/kg restored (P < 0.05) growth performance, serum biochemical parameters, and tibia traits when compared with the levels of the PC. Moreover, the addition of phytase linearly increased (P < 0.05) dietary protein, Ca, and phosphorus (P) utilization as well as nitrogen output, and excreta iron, copper, manganese, and zinc concentration quadratically increased (P < 0.05) as well as P output. In conclusion, phytase at ≥5,000 FTU/kg was effective in ameliorating the negative effects of NC diets and reducing trace mineral supplementation in diet of Pekin ducks.

[PMID: 33248592 PMCID: PMC7705048 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2020.09.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2020] [Revised: 08/03/2020] [Accepted: 09/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Mineral nutrition plays a critical role in growth and bone mineralization in meat ducks as well as reproductive performance in duck layers and duck breeders. In addition to improving production performance parameters, minerals are also essential to support several enzymatic systems to enhancing antioxidant ability and immune function. This review explores the biological function and metabolism of minerals in the body, as well as mineral feeding strategy of various species of ducks. Topics range from mineral requirement to the physiological role of macroelements such as calcium and phosphorus and microelements such as zinc and selenium, etc. As with the improvement of genetic evolution and upgrade of rearing system in duck production, mineral requirements and electrolyte balance are urgent to be re-evaluated using sensitive biomarkers for the modern duck breed characterized by the rapid growth rate and inadequate bone development and mineralization. For duck breeders, mineral nutrition is not only required for maximal egg production performance but also for maintaining normal embryonic development and offspring's performance. Therefore, the proper amounts of bioavailable minerals need to be supplemented to maintain the mineral nutritional state of duck species during all phases of life. In addition, more positive effects of high doses microelements supplementations have been revealed for modern meat ducks subjected to various stresses in commercial production. The nutritional factors of mineral sources, supplemental enzymes, and antinutritional factors from unconventional ingredients should be emphasized to improve the effectiveness of mineral nutrition in duck feed formulation. Organic mineral sources and phytase enzymes have been adopted to reduce the antagonistic action between mineral and antinutritional factors. Therefore, special and accurate database of mineral requirements should be established for special genotypes of ducks under different rearing conditions, including rearing factors, environmental stresses and diets supplemented with organic sources, phytase and VD3.

Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the effects of residual superdoses of phytase on growth performance, tibia mineralization, and relative organ weight in ducks fed phosphorus-deficient diets. In Exp. 1, 4 kinds of commercial phytase were used to determine retention rate of phyatse with the phytase C being the highest via both high water-bath temperature (90%) and pelleting (50%), followed by phytase A, B, and D. In Exp. 2, a total of 560 male ducks were blocked based on body weight, and then allocated randomly to 7 treatments (5 replicates with 16 birds per replicate). Treatments included a maize-soybean meal-based diet with recommended calcium and 4.0 g non-phytate phosphorus (nPP)/kg starter diet or 3.8 g nPP/kg grower diet (positive control; PC), an nPP-deficient diet with 1.3 g nPP/kg starter diet or 1.1 g nPP/kg grower diet (negative control; NC), NC diets with increasing levels of residual phytase C (500, 1,000, 2,000, 3,000, and 4,000 units/kg feed) after pelleting. Birds fed NC diets had lower (P < 0.05) average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI) throughout the experiment compared with those fed PC diet. Supplementing NC diet with increasing residual superdoses of phytase improved (P < 0.05) ADG and ADFI quadratically in the entire experiment, while reduced feed-to-gain ratio (P < 0.05) quadratically during day 0 to 14. On day 14 and 35, birds fed NC diet had lower (P < 0.05) tibia length, weight, ash, calcium, phosphorus, and manganese contents than those fed PC diet. Increasing residual superdoses of phytase in NC diet increased (P < 0.05) tibia weight and ash, calcium, phosphorus contents quadratically on day 14 and 35. NC treatment increased (P < 0.05) the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and cecum index compared with other treatments on day 14 and 35. Taken together, feeding increasing residual superdoses of phytase could counteract or exceed the negative effects of NC diet on growth performance, tibia mineralization, and relative organ weight in ducks.

Abstract
The growth performance and phosphorus utilization responses of ducks to phytase were investigated during the starter and grower phases. Five-hundred-seventy-six one-day-old drakes with an average initial BW of 55 g were grouped by BW into 8 blocks of 6 pens and assigned to 48 pens with 12 ducks per pen. The 6 dietary treatments consisted of: 1) positive control (PC), adequate in all nutrients with 4.5 g non-phytate phosphorus (nPP)/kg starter diet or 3.5 g nPP/kg grower diet; 2) negative control (NC), adequate in all other nutrients except phosphorus with 3.0 g nPP/kg starter diet or 2.0 g nPP/kg grower diet; 3) the NC plus phytase at 500 units/kg diet; 4) the NC plus phytase at 1,000 units/kg diet; 5) the NC plus phytase at 1,500 units/kg diet; and 6) the NC plus phytase at 15,000 units/kg diet. Starter and grower diets were fed from d 1 to 15 and d 15 to 43 post hatching, respectively. Ducks had free access to diets and water during the 42-day study. Feeding the low-P NC diet to ducks reduced (P < 0.01) gain and feed intake compared with the PC diet in both starter and grower phases. Supplementing the NC diet with phytase resulted in both linear and quadratic improvements (P < 0.05) in gain, feed intake, and G: F. Feeding the low-P NC diet to ducks reduced (P < 0.01) tibia ash compared with the PC diet. There were both linear and quadratic increases (P < 0.05) in tibia ash with phytase supplementation. Supplementing the NC diet with phytase resulted in both linear and quadratic increases (P < 0.001) in ileal digestibility and retention of P in both the starter and grower phases. The results of this study showed that phytase was efficacious in hydrolyzing phytate P for bone mineralization and growth of ducks through the starter and grower periods.

Abstract
Objective This study investigated the effect of microbial phytase supplementation on growth performance, tibia ash, plasma parameters, apparent ileal digestibility (AID) of amino acid (AA) and apparent digestibility of nutrients in Youxian Sheldrakes fed with low-phosphorus (P) corn-soybean diets. Methods A total of 350 Youxian Sheldrakes (7d old) were randomly divided into 5 treatment groups: positive control (PC) group has adequate available P diet (0.42% and 0.38%, starter and grower), negative control (NC) group were deficient in available P (0.32% and 0.28%, starter and grower) and NC diet was supplemented with 3 levels of microbial phytase (500, 750, and 1,000 U/kg). Results Dietary supplementation of phytase in NC diet improved the average daily gain, increased the levels of serum calcium (Ca), tibia Ca and P, AID of AA and apparent digestibility of energy and Ca in starter stage (p<0.05). There was an increased (p<0.001) in the utilization of P from 17.3% to 23.9%. Phytase supplementation (1,000 U/kg) has shown that the AID of His, Thr, Val, indispensable AA, Glu, Pro, and dispensable AA was higher (p<0.05) than that of NC. Moreover, phytase supplementation improved (p<0.05) serum and tibia Ca and P, AID of AA and apparent digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, energy, P and Ca, and reduced (p<0.05) feed to gain ratio (F/G) and the levels of serum alkaline phosphatase in grower stage. Likewise, an increase (p<0.001) in the utilization of P was noticed from 12.6% to 17.2%. Supplement phytase at 750 U/kg improved the AID of His, Thr, Asp, Cys, Pro, and Ser (p<0.05). Conclusion The microbial phytase supplement could improve growth performance, AID of some AA and apparent utilization of other nutrients in Youxian Sheldrakes, and reduce excreta P load to environment.

Abstract
Background Previous studies with broiler have shown dietary supplementation with multi-enzyme complex containing non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) degrading enzymes and phytase is efficient in releasing phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), energy and amino acids from corn-soybean meal diets or corn-sorghum diets, hence compensating considerable levels of nutrients in formulation. Notwithstanding, such potentials have not been well defined in duck nutrition. Giving China being the largest duck producing country, we conducted this study to establish adequate specifications of major nutrients along with multi-enzyme complex to meat duck from day-old to slaughter, focusing on performance, utilization of nutrients and bone mineralization. Five dietary treatments were: Positive control (PC,T1 ): the nutrients concentration of diet for 1 to 14 d of age were apparent metabolizable energy(AME) 2,800 kcal/kg, crude protein (CP)19.39%, Ca 0.85%, available phosphorus (avP) 0.42%; for 15 to 35 d of age these parameters were AME 2,900 kcal/kg, CP 16.47%,Ca 0.76%,avP 0.38%; Negative control 1(NC1,T2), the AME and digestible amino acids (DAA) were reduced by 70 kcal/kg and 2.0%, avP and Ca by 1.0 g/kg from PC diet; Negative control 2( NC2,T4), the down-spec from PC diet was AME 100 kcal/kg, DAA 2.5%, avP 1.5 g/kg and Ca 1.2 g/kg; The enzyme complex was added at the same dosage (200 mL/ 1,000 kg) on NC1 (T3) and NC2 (T5) diets. Results Comparing with the ducks fed on T1, T3 and T5 diets, the birds fed on NC2 diet showed the lowest (P < 0.05) body weight ( d 14 and 35), feed intake (d 35), tibia ash, Ca and P contents (d 14 and 35), and the utilization of nutrients (P < 0.05). The supplementation with the enzyme complex to the NC diets restored growth rate, utilization of nutrients and bone mineralization to the level of the PC diet, and increased AME by 60 kcal/kg and 117 kcal/kg, respectively for the NC1 and NC2 diets. Conclusion These results suggest that down-spec AME by 100 kcal/kg, DAA by 2.5%, avP by 1.5 g/kg and Ca by 1.2 g/kg caused detrimental effects on duck performance compared with those fed on the PC diet, and these performance losses can be compensated by the addition of the multiple-enzyme complex.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to determine the ileal digestibility of P in potassium phosphate, phytase-related ileal digestible P release, bone-mineralization-based ileal digestible P equivalency of phytase, and phytase-related efficiency of ileal digestible P utilization for bone mineralization in broiler chickens at 2 dietary concentrations of highly soluble Ca (HSC). Birds were sorted by BW at d 15 posthatch and assigned to 8 cages per diet with 8 birds per cage. Twelve diets were arranged in a 2 × 6 factorial of HSC at 5 or 6 g/kg and P supply treatment at 6 levels consisting of 4 added P levels (P from KH2PO4 added at 0, 0.7, 1.4, or 2.1 g/kg of diet) or 2 added phytase levels (500 or 1,000 phytase units). On d 24 posthatch, ileal digesta were collected for ileal P digestibility (IPD) determination and the left tibia was collected from the 4 heaviest birds in each cage for bone ash determination. Weight gain, G:F, and tibia ash were higher (P < 0.05) at 5 than at 6 g of HSC/kg. Added P from KH2PO4 or added phytase linearly increased (P < 0.001) weight gain, G:F, tibia ash, and IPD. The IPD of KH2PO4 derived from multiple linear regressions of digestible on total P intake for the diets without added phytase showed a reduction (P < 0.05) from 89.5 to 84.5% with increased HSC from 5 to 6 g/kg. Polynomial regressions of digestible P intake on phytase intake indicated that 1,000 units of added phytase released 1.701 or 1.561 g of digestible P in diets containing 5 or 6 g of added HSC/kg, respectively. Polynomial regressions of tibia ash on digestible P or phytase intake in diets containing 5 or 6 g of added HSC/kg at 1,000 phytase units gave digestible P equivalency of 1.487 or 1.448 g, respectively. Thus, phytase-related efficiency of ileal digestible P utilization for bone mineralization was 87.4 and 92.8% in diets containing 5 or 6 g of added HSC/kg, respectively.

Abstract
Diets fed to nonruminant animals are composed mainly of feed ingredients of plant origin. A variety of antinutritional factors such as phytin, nonstarch polysaccharides, and protease inhibitors may be present in these feed ingredients, which could limit nutrients that may be utilized by animals fed such diets. The primary nutrient utilization-limiting effect of phytin arises from the binding of 6 phosphate groups, thus making the P unavailable to the animal. The negative charges allow for formation of insoluble phytin-metal complexes with many divalent cations. Furthermore, phytin and protein can form binary complexes through electrostatic links of its charged phosphate groups with either the free amino group on AA on proteins or via formation of ternary complexes of phytin, Ca(2+), and protein. The form and extent of de novo formation of binary and ternary complexes of phytin and protein are likely to be important variables that influence the effectiveness of nutrient hydrolysis in plant-based diets. Nonstarch polysacharides reduce effective energy and nutrient utilization by nonruminant animals because of a lack of the enzymes needed for breaking down the complex cell wall structure that encapsulate other nutrients. Enzymes are used in nonruminant animal production to promote growth and efficiency of nutrient utilization and reduce nutrient excretion. The enzymes used include those that target phytin and nonstarch polysaccharides. Phytase improves growth and enhances P utilization, but positive effects on other nutrients are not always observed. Nonstarch polysaccharide-hydrolyzing enzymes are less consistent in their effects on growth and nutrient utilization, although they show promise and it is imperative to closely match both types and amounts of nonstarch polysaccharides with appropriate enzyme for beneficial effects. When used together with phytase, nonstarch polysaccharide-hydrolyzing enzymes may increase the accessibility of phytase to phytin encapsulated in cell walls. The future of enzymes in nonruminant animal production is promising and will likely include an understanding of the role of enzyme supplementation in promoting health as well as how enzymes may modulate gene functions. This review is an attempt to summarize current thinking in this area, provide some clarity in nomenclature and mechanisms, and suggest opportunities for expanded exploitation of this unique biotechnology.
