Fitat dan fitase : dampak pada hewan ternak
Abstract: In countries with
high plant biodiversity such as Indonesia, the availability of food of plant
origin is very diverse. The presence of anti-nutrients in plants would
potentially cause problems in cattle if not managed properly. phytic acid is
one anti nutritional factor that have a
role in disrupting the health and productivity The term phytate refers to the
molecule phytic acid, which generally acts as a chelate to Mg, Ca, Na, and K,
and in some cases protein and carbohydrates. Seeds of cereals, legumes and
oilseed plant which is used as animal feed usually contains a lot of phytic
acid which can cause a decline in nutritional value. However, with a variety of
processing methods, levels of phytic acid in animal feed can be reduced or even
eliminated. In addition to the processing method, the method of adding phytase
enzyme may also be done to improve the nutritional value of the animal feed
ingredients.
