Some nutrients in feed are unavailable for use by the animal. Enzymes work by releasing these valuable nutrients and improving the nutritional value of feed, especially those from plant sources.
Feed raw materials often contain antinutritive substances. Eliminating antinutrients increase the effectiveness of the animal´s own digestive enzymes.
TechnoZyme Aqua is a groundbreaking enzyme blend designed to optimize the nutritional potential of high plant content aquafeeds. TechnoZyme Aqua is a proprietary blend of xylanase, phytase, protease, and amylase enzymes that work together to improve the nutrition of fish and shrimp, ensuring they get the most out of their feed.
Diets rich in plant materials such as corn and soy can limit protein digestion due to anti-nutritive factors such as arabinoxylans, phytate, and trypsin inhibitors. TechnoZyme Aqua addresses these challenges head-on by improving nutrient digestibility and reducing the need for inorganic phosphorus and calcium supplementation. As a result, fish and shrimp benefit from increased protein digestibility and total feed energy value, resulting in lower feed conversion ratios.
The xylanase in TechnoZyme Aqua targets the arabinoxylan fraction of dietary fibers found in cereals, cereal by-products, and vegetable protein meals. This action improves digestion by breaking down cell wall structures and reducing differences in the nutritional value of feed ingredients. Phytase works to break down phytate, a source of phosphorus that is mostly indigestible by fish and shrimp, reducing anti-nutritional factors and increasing the availability of phosphorus and other minerals.
The protease in TechnoZyme Aqua supports protein digestion, especially in soy-based diets, while the amylase increases the digestibility of corn starch. These additional enzyme activities maximize energy and protein digestion, making TechnoZyme Aqua the comprehensive enzyme solution for efficient nutrient utilization of aquafeeds.
Don’t let the nutritional potential of your aquafeeds go to waste. Give your fish and shrimp the edge they deserve with TechnoZyme Aqua and see the remarkable difference in health and productivity. Make the smart choice—up your aquaculture game with TechnoZyme Aqua.
