Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase

EC 3.2.1.8

Additive composition

Preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus oryzae (DSM 26372) having a minimum activity of:

Solid form: 1 000 FXU (1) /g

Liquid form: 650 FXU/ml

Characterisation of the active substance

endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus oryzae (DSM 26372)

Analytical method (2)

For quantification of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus oryzae (DSM 26372) in a feed additive:

— colorimetric method measuring coloured compound produced by the dinitro salicylic acid (DNSA) and the xylosylic moieties released by the action of xylanase on arabinoxylan.

For quantification of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus oryzae (DSM26372) in premixtures and feedingstuffs:

— colorimetric method measuring water soluble dye released by action of xylanase from dye-labelled oat spelt azo-xylan.

Poultry for fattening

100FXU

1.  In the directions for use of the additive and premixtures, the storage conditions and stability to heat treatment shall be indicated.

2.  Recommended maximum dose per kilogram of complete feedingstuff for:

— poultry for fattening: 200 FXU;

— piglets (weaned): 400 FXU;

— pigs for fattening: 400 FXU.

3.  For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address potential risks resulting from its use. Where those risks cannot be eliminated or reduced to a minimum by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixtures shall be used with personal protective equipment, including breathing protection and skin protection.

4.  For use in weaned piglets up to approximately 35 kg.

4 January 2023

Weaned piglets

200FXU

Pigs for fattening

200FXU

(1)   

1 FXU is the amount of enzyme which liberates 7,8 micromole of reducing sugars (xylose equivalents) from azo-wheat arabinoxylan per minute at pH 6,0 and 50 °C.

(2)
