  • PHYTERIX™

    Premium Phytase

    Maximizing Nutrient Efficiency in Poultry and Swine Feed

    PHYTERIX™ is a high-activity microbial 6-phytase enzyme designed to enhance nutrient release in poultry and swine. Engineered for thermal stability and optimal performance across a broad pH range, it ensures improved feed efficiency and animal growth.

COMPREHENSIVE LIVESTOCK BENEFITS

  • Improved Nutrient Availability:  Releases phosphorus, calcium, and protein from phytate complexes.

  • Growth Optimization:  Enhances weight gain and feed conversion in poultry operations.

  • Thermal Stability:  Maintains effectiveness through feed processing at high temperatures.

  • Economic Returns:    Delivers 3:1 return on investment through feed cost reduction.

Enhanced Protein Digestibiliy

Adding just 500 FTU/kg of PHYTERIX™ significantly improves protein digestibility. This means better feed efficiency and reduced nitrogen excretion.

54% - Base Digestibility

Standard calcium digestibility without phytase supplementation

64% Enhanced Digestibiliy

Improved calcium utilization with PHYTERIX™ 500 FTU/kg

10% Improvement

Net gain in calcium availability for skeletal development

Superior Calcium Utilization

Maximized Phosphorus Release

High Release Rate

PHYTERIX™ rapidly degrades phytate bonds to liberate bound phosphorus.

Reduced Feed Cost

Less inorganic phosphorus supplementation required in diet formulation.

Environmental Benefits

Lower phosphorus excretion reduces environmental impact of livestock operations.

Optimized for Digestive Efficiency

Additionally, the improved nutrient release from PHYTERIX™ aids in optimizing digestive efficiency, resulting in better overall utilization of nutrients by the animal. This targeted action supports enhanced skeletal growth and metabolic processes in livestock, providing multiple benefits for animal health and performance.
