Protein is an expensive and vital nutrient for poultry. Protein plays an important role in the diet formulation of poultry for optimal growth, feed utilization, immune functions and productive performance. Protein is involved in many biological functions for growth, repair and rejuvenation of tissues in the body. Moreover, proteins exist in forms of hormones and enzymes which play crucial roles in the physiological processes in the body.

Need for Protease supplementation:
1. About 15-20% of the ingested protein is undigested in birds
2. The undigested fraction in the hind gut favours pathogen proliferation
3. Chicks are less efficient in protein utilization
4. Inclusion of wider range of protein sources in feed requires protease
5. Reduced protein levels in feed without compromising performance is accomplished with protease

Poultry does not digest and absorb all the protein and amino acids present in the diet. The undigested component is a substrate for microbial metabolism, favouring harmful organisms in the hindgut. The undigested protein in litter is the result of multiple factors including age, health, production status of the bird, ingredients used in the diet and environmental elements.

Multi-Proteases for Poultry:
SynerZyme-Pro is a combination of ANA (Acidic, Neutral and Alkaline) Proteases to facilitate effective protein digestion throughout the gut.
SynerZyme-Pro has been formulated considering different feed ingredients which constitute the formulation of poultry feed.

Action in Gut:
Time available for the feed to be digested and absorbed in the digestive tract after entry into the mouth is approximately 4.25 hrs. In this short period complex protein in the feed is to be digested and absorbed. The digestive organs of poultry vary in their pH conditions ranging from acidic proventriculus (pH 3.0) to alkaline colon (pH 8.0). Although pepsin is secreted in the proventriculus, proteolytic enzymes spike in the regions of duodenum and jejunum, where absorption of nutrients commences. It is advantageous to initiate protein digestion in the anterior segments of the GI tract. Exogenous Multi-Protease offer the advantages of improving the efficacy of protein digestion being active with pH optima in different segments of the GI tract. They work in harmony with body’s own endogenous proteases to improve protein digestibility.

Benefits:
1. Improves protein digestibility
2. Better utilization of different protein feed ingredients
3. Complements endogenous enzyme secretion in birds
4. Helps to reduce crude protein and digestible amino acids in the diet
5. Favour beneficial gut environment

Ingredients:
SynerZyme-Pro is a synergistic combination of Multiple ANA Proteases for efficient digestion and utilization of protein in feed.

Direction for Use:
200 gm SynerZyme-Pro is to be mixed in one ton of feed or as recommended by the Consultant Veterinarian.
