Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of single or mixed supplementation of bacterial and fungal phytase using 45-wk-old 450 Hy-Line Brown laying hens housed in individual cages for 12-wk period. The birds were reallocated to have similar egg productivity by examining the egg production for one wk before starting the experiment. Two sources of phytase, bacterial (BP) and fungal (FP), were used either in single or mixture to determine the effects of these phytase. Five dietary treatments consisted of control (BP 0, FP 0), T1 (BP 300, FP 0), T2 (BP 300, FP 300), T3 (BP 300, FP 3000), and T4 (BP 0, FP 3000). The DPU was used for phytase activity in this experiment. The nonphytate phosphorus (NPP) content of control was 0.30%, and those of phytase treatments were set to 60% of the Control. Experimental diets were fed ad libitum throughout the experimental period. The lighting schedule of 17L7D was employed. The egg production was not different between control and bacterial phytase treatments, but the T4 showed significantly low productivity compared to control (P<0.05). No difference was found in average egg weight among all treatments. The daily egg mass did not show any statistical differences among all treatments: however, it was significantly low in T4 compared to ther control during the latter half of the experiment (P<0.05). No significant difference was found among treatments in terms of feed intake, feed conversion and egg quality. The digestibilities of dry matter, crude protein, and fat digestibility were similar regardless of the treatments. No significant trends were detected in Ca and P availability. In conclusion, the BP level of 300 DPU contributed to achieve 40% reduction of recommended nonphytate phosphorus addition. The synergistic effect of bacterial and fungal phytase was not confirmed.
본 시험에서는 bacteria 또는 fungi로부터 유래된 phytase를 단일 및 혼합으로 45주령 Hy-Line Brown 산란계 450수에 12주 동안 급여하였다. 공시계는 시험개시 전 일주일 동안 산란조사를 하여 처리간에 비슷한 산란율이 되도록 하였다. 대조구(Control)사료는 nonphytate phosphorus 함량이 0.3% 되게 하였으며, 처리구는 bacterial phytase(BP)와 fungal phytase (FP) 2종류를 각각 T1(300 DPU, 0 DPU), T2(300 DPU, 300 DPU), T3(300 DPU, 3000 DPU), T4(0 DPU, 3000 DPU)로 하여 급여하였다. 처리구들의 nonphytate phosphorus 함량은 Control의 60%로 하였다. 사료와 물은 전 기간 자유채식토록 하였고, 점등은 17L7D로 하였다. 산란율은 T4가 Control에 비해 유의하게 낮았으며(P<0.05), 두 종류 phytase의 동시 급여 효과는 없었다. 평균 난중과 1일 산란량은 처리구간에 통계적인 차이는 없었으나, 후자의 경우 시험 후반기에 T4에서 Control에 비해 유의하게 낮았다(P<0.05). 사료 섭취량, 사료요구율, 계란의 품질은 처리구간에 차이가 없었다. 건물, 조단백질 및 지방 소화율은 처리구간 유사하였으며, 무기물, 칼슘 및 인 이용율은 뚜렷한 경향이 없었다. 본 실험 결과에서 산란계 사료에 BP 300 DPU 수준일 때 NPP 첨가량을 NRC (1994) 권장량 대비 약 40%가 저감되었으며, 인 이용율 역시 개선되었으나 FP와의 혼합 급여로 인한 개선 효과는 나타나지 않았다.
