Natupulse TS is available in powder and liquid form
BASF has launched the new enzyme product Natupulse TS for animal feed. Natupulse TS is a non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzyme. As an endo-1,4-ß-D-mannanase, it hydrolyzes ß-mannans into smaller components, e.g. manno-oligosaccharides (MOS). The addition of ß-mannanase to the feed decreases digesta viscosity, increases the digestibility of the feed and ensures a more sustainable production.
A significant amount of nutrients in poultry diets of up to 30 per cent remains undigested. The presence of NSP’s is one of the key reasons for this. NSP’s are considered anti-nutritional factors in broiler feed since broilers lack the endogenous enzymes to digest NSP’s. One of the most common NSP’s in soybean meal, the main protein source in commercial broiler diets, is the ß-mannan galactomannan. Through the action of mannanase, Natupulse TS cleaves these ß-mannans, leading to improved digestion of feed nutrients. In addition, MOS produced by the hydrolysis of ß-mannan can have a prebiotic effect.
Manufactured by BASF in Germany, Natupulse TS is available in powder and liquid form. Both formulations deliver very good overall stability – during storage, in premix and under challenging conditions in the pelleting process. BASF is committed to providing high-quality products and efficient solutions to the challenges of the feed industry. Natupulse TS increases the digestibility of nutrients, making the feed more cost-effective and supporting more sustainable production of animal protein.
