Extract

Fat digestibility in broilers depends not only on fat type but also on the particular cereal grain that is used. There are considerable evidences showing antinutritive effect of NSP in cereals have a pronounced negative effect on digestibility of fat in young birds. An increase in intestinal viscosity depresses fat digestibility more in animal fat-based diets. Reduction in viscosity due to enzyme addition in such diets should exert a more pronounced effect (Danicke, 1999a). Significant interaction effect between dietary fat type and carbohydrase addition was also reported (Danicke, 1999b). The objective of the present study was to examine the effects of dietary levels of tallow and NSP degrading enzyme supplements on broiler chickens.
