Abstract
Increasing competition in the livestock industry has forced producers to cut costs by adopting new technologies aimed out increasing production efficiency. Non-ruminant livestock do not express fibrolytic enzymes. The major plant cell wall components of cereals, primarily β-glucans and arabinoxylans, form gel-like structures in the small intestines that trap nutrients. The viscous polysaccharides can also cause severe gastrointestinal disorders. (omitted)
