Cellulase Complex Feed Grade
CAS Number: 9012-54-8
Cellulase Complex is a multi-component enzyme preparation containing endoglucanase, exoglucanase, and beta-glucosidase that degrades crystalline and amorphous cellulose in plant-based feedstuffs, partially releasing encapsulated nutrients. While monogastric animals cannot digest cellulose, cellulase supplementation reduces cell wall barriers around starch and protein, improving overall digestibility. Our thermostable product is suitable for all feed types.
