2010
Bedford, Michael R. (Michael Richard) | Partridge, Gary G.
Covering all aspects of the addition of enzymes to animal feeds, this book discusses topics including interactions with animal physiology, economic and environmental impacts and technology. This new edition brings the reader up to date with the considerable advances in feed enzyme technology of the last decade. It includes a discussion of new classes of enzymes introduced into the market place, an exploration of how these products function and the size and scope of their use in the global industry with new methods for evaluation of enzyme responses.

Topics discussed are introduction on the current market and expected developments in enzyme industry; xylanases and cellulases as feed additives; mannanase, α-galactosidase and pectinase enzymes; starch- and protein-degrading enzymes: biochemistry, enzymology and characteristics relevant to animal feed use; phytases: biochemistry, enzymology and characteristics relevant to animal feed use; effect of digestive tract conditions, feed processing and ingredients on response to non-starch polysaccharide enzymes; phytate and phytase enzymes; developments in enzyme usage in ruminants; other enzyme applications relevant to the animal feed industry; thermostability of feed enzymes and their practical application in the feed mill; analysis of enzymes, principles and problems: developments in enzyme analysis; holo analysis of the efficacy of exogenous enzyme performance in farm animal nutrition; and the future of feed enzymes as a bright hope or regulatory minefield. This book is intended for animal nutritionists, veterinarians, feed manufacturers, animal scientist, livestock farmers and students of related sciences.
