Catalog Number IE-1267
Physical Form Powder
Color Light yellow to brown
Dosage Parameters 10-25g per ton of feedstuff
Source Microorganism
| Summary | Keratinase is able to hydrolyze keratin efficiently into smaller peptides and amino acid that are much more absorbable, often used for the pre-treatment of feather meal or other keratin raw materials, or added as feed additive, outperforming most non-kera. |
| Description | Keratinase is produced by submerged fermentation of Aspergillus niger followed by purification and formulation. This aggressive protease exhibits broad specificity and is capable of degrading both water-soluble and insoluble proteins such as collagen, whey protein, casein, and especially keratin. It breaks these proteins down into water-soluble smaller peptides and amino acids, outperforming most non-keratin degrading proteases. Keratinase is often used to pre-treat keratin materials like feathers to produce feed additives or can be added directly to feed to enhance protein digestion. |
| Advantages |
Pre-digest keratin and resistent protein in feather horn etc to be incorporated into feed Efficiently hydrolyze resistent protein in feed for better absorption |
| Application | Used in the pre-treatment of keratin materials like feather meal or added as feed additive. |
| Application Area |
Dairy cow Aquaculture Pet food Pig/swine Poultry Ruminants |
| Application Recommendation |
10-25 g per ton of feedstuff. The dosage has to be optimized based on each application, the raw material specifications, product expectation and processing parameters. |
