CIBENZA® DP100
CIBENZA® DP100 feed additive is an aggressive, heat-stable, broad spectrum protease that complements the animal’s endogenous enzymes to hydrolyze less digestible proteins in animal feeds. As a result, CIBENZA DP100 improves the protein digestibility in feeds over the typical industry average of 80 to 90 percent.
Whether you formulate on a crude protein (CP) basis or on a digestible amino acid basis, you can now maintain body weight gain and feed efficiency while reducing the protein costs of the diet.
The effectiveness of CIBENZA DP100 has been tested using a variety of vegetable and animal protein sources, including complex protein sources such as Keratin and Elastin.
CIBENZA DP100 shows higher protein degrading effects than other proteases tested (Figure 1). This means that it can work on a variety of proteins; thus, you can use CIBENZA DP100 in your diets, regardless of the protein source.
Reduce protein, not performance
In a recent Southern Poultry Research study, the effect of CIBENZA DP100 on low protein diets was investigated. In this study dietary amino acids were reduced by 7.5% and broilers were compared to birds fed with the standard commercial program. Table 1 and Table 2 show that broiler diets supplemented with CIBENZA DP100 reduce feed costs and maintain growth performance.
In a Novus study, standard diets of 23% crude protein supplemented with CIBENZA DP100 outperformed non-supplemented control diets in body weight gain. Cheaper reduced-protein diets supplemented with CIBENZA maintained expected performance, while control groups on non-supplemented diets sacrificed weight gain.
