Natugrain® TS, a mix of xylanase and ß-glucanase that supports feed utilization based on three interactive modes of action
Natugrain® TS
Non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs) are the least digestible compounds in feedstuffs used for pig and poultry.
Their anti-nutritional properties reduce the utilization of dietary nutrients by increasing digesta viscosity and by trapping valuable nutrients. Natugrain® TS contains BASF’s highly purified NSP-degrading enzymes endo-1, 4-β-xylanase and endo-1,4-β-glucanase. Natugrain® TS improves the digestibility of nutrients and energy utilization from feedstuffs such as wheat, corn, rye, barley, sorghum, etc.
