ALQUERZIM LECHONES SOJA
DESCRIPTION
Powder premix containing amylase, protease and lipase intended for piglets of 5 days till 10 kg of live weight (klw), whose diet contains derivatives of soy.
TECHNICAL PROPERTIES
Physiologically, the enzymatic digestive system of the piglet is immature until the sixth week of life: the secretion of lactase rapidly dimishes from the second week after birth, while the secretion of lipase, amylase, pepsine and trypsine only start to develop after the fifth week of life.
Furthermore, the stess produced by the weaning interrupts the enzymatic maturing of the piglet. This means that the first weeks of life the sources of carbohydrates and proteins used should be highly digestable and the formulation of the diet should be adapted to the physiological necessities of the piglet and complemented with the necessary enzymes. Optimal growth and good sanitary conditions at this stage will be reflected in a higher productivity at a later stage.
The elevated nutritive value of the soy bean is due to its composition of aminoacids in its protein, but its complete nutritive value can only be obtained after eliminating the Anti-Nutritional Factors (ANF) present. To adapt soy to fit piglet feed requirements, derivatives are commonly used which have been submitted to different treatments like for example. toasting, extraction, UHT or alcaline/acid treatment. The objective of these treatments is to reduce almost completely the presence of the most common Anti-Nutritional Factors such as the inhibitors of porteases, lectines, phytates, antigens, oligosaccharide, etc.
However, eventhough soy has been treated, piglets are not able to digest completely the derivatives of the soy due to their immature digestive system. Therefore, it is necessary to add an enzymatic premix to feed which complements the physiological deficiency of amylase,, lipase and portease. The result is a higher utilization of the feed and a prevention of digestive disorders, produced by the undigested proteins in the intestine, which favours the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli and other anaerobic of the genus Clostridium.
Furthermore, the protease present in the formulation (subtilisine) has a proteolytic action on the residual antigens of the derivatives of soy and improve the digestibility of the protein aggregates and the carbohydrate-protein complexes that are formed during the heating of the soy.
It is recommended to complement the action of Alquerzim Lechones Soja with an acidifying product, Alquerfeed Acidificante, to counter the marked deficit in the production of hydrochloric acid in the first weeks of life of the piglet.
