Role of a Bacillus subtilis direct-fed microbial on digesta viscosity, bacterial translocation and bone mineralization in turkey poults fed with a rye-based diet

Role of a Bacillus subtilis direct-fed microbial on digesta viscosity, bacterial translocation and bone mineralization in turkey poults fed with a rye-based diet

Rye contains high concentrations of non-starch polysaccharides (NSP), leading to reduced digestibility. Since poultry have little or no endogenous enzymes capable of hydrolyzing these NSP, exogenous carbohydrases as feed additives are used in an attempt to reduce the anti-nutritional effects of thes...
