Exogenous enzymes are able to offer nutritional benefits in a variety of ways by hydrolyzing NSP that could not be used by poultry.
explored a blend of NSP hydrolyzing enzymes with activity for amylase, beta-glucanase, pentosanase, hemicellulase, and pectinase in a 20% CDDGS laying hen diet
from week 26 to week 68.
Hens fed 20% CDDGS without enzyme supplementation had decreased egg production
parameters, but the addition of NSP-hydrolyzing enzymes partly ameliorated this negative influence.
