Mikkel Klausen, Department of Enzyme Innovation, Animal Health & Nutrition, Novozymes A/S presented on the topic of Discovery and in vitro characterization of a novel muramidase for use in animal feed. The Key messages from his talk were – Bacterial biomass 2nd only to plants on our planet, The gut is densely populated with microbes, Bacterial cell debris is released upon cell division and death. A novel fungal muramidase improved FCR when supplemented to broilers, Independent in vitro assays confirmed hydrolysis of gut relevant peptidoglycan, Absence of antimicrobial potency was confirmed in vivo and in vitro.
Estefania Pérez Calvo, Senior Scientist at the DSM Research Center for Animal Nutrition & Health, Village-Neuf (France) presented on the topic of In vivo evaluation of a novel microbial muramidase and its implication for poultry industry. The Key messages from her talk were- Muramidase is an enzyme which substrate is naturally in the gut (peptidoglycans from bacterial cell wall debris) that optimizes the gastrointestinal functionality by improving nutrient digestion and absorption capacity, without impacting villi length but decreasing mucosa thickness & Contributing the improvement of the litter quality and decrease the footpad dermatitis, Minor changes of the gut microbiota composition Consequently, supplementation of muramidase has a positive effect on feed efficiency of broiler chickens.
Dr. Santiago Ramirez, Poultry Regional Marketing Animal Health & Nutrition DSM APAC presented on the topic of Achieving Optimum Gastro Intestinal Functionality- Making Friends with the Chicken’s Microbiome. The Key messages from his talk were Gastro Intestinal Functionality in terms of nutrition can be altered by: Feed Form, Chicken’s diet, Substrate extracted by enzymes and added functional ingredients such as Eubiotics (pre & pro biotics, OA and EO), Knowledge on the chicken’s microbiome still as its infancy. Sustainable additives modify the microbial ecology & positively affect production parameters, Microbial diversity seems to be integral part for performance & DSM team is capable of working together with customer to address their needs.
Rolando Valientes – Regional Technical Service Manager Eubiotics APAC summarized the speakers’ presentations & moderated the panel discussion. He highlighted the need to recognize the hidden potential in the peptidoglycans and the game-changing innovation, the muramidase, which unlocks this potential.
