Rovabio® Excel LC Presentation
◊
Rovabio® Excel LC is a clear to brown concentrated liquid whose main enzymatic activities are β-xylanase and β-glucanase obtained from a fermentation broth of Penicillium funiculosum. The main active substances are endo-1,4-β-xylanase (EC No. 3.2.1.8 – minimum activity 350 AXC units/ml) and endo-1,3(4)β-glucanase (EC No. 3.2.1.6 – minimum activity 500 AGL units/ ml). There are a further 19 enzyme activities, including cellulase (endo-1,4-β-glucanase). Specific Gravity: pH: Freezing point:
1.09-1.13 3.7-4.2 -5°C
Use
Rovabio® Excel LC may be incorporated into animal feed by spraying onto pelleted feedstuffs to hydrolyse pentosans and β-glucans in vegetable raw materials.
The effect of this activity is to:
• Improve the nutritional value of feeds containing different types of cereals (wheat, maize, barley, triticale, rye, oats, etc) and oilseed meals (soybean, sunflower, canola, etc).
• Reduce gut viscosity. • Reduce the free ammonia concentration in the litter. Dosage/administration
Dose: Use at a rate of 0.2 litres Rovabio® Excel LC/tonne of feed.
This dose rate is equivalent to: xylanase – 70 AXC units/kg feed. β-glucanase – 100 AGL units/kg feed.
Administration: This product can be diluted with water in all proportions before spraying onto feeds.
It is recommended to check enzyme activity in feeds using the Rovabio® Test Kit.
