Keratinase
Keratinase Products
Protease catalyzes peptide bond and hydrolyzes protein into peptone, hydrazone, polypeptide and amino acid. As a kind of alkaline serine protease, keratinase enzymenot only has the function of normal alkaline protease, but also can break down disulfide bond and disintegrate keratin.

Definition and Dosage of Activity Keratinase
One unit (U) of protease activity is defined as the amount of enzyme chinawhich liberates 1 μg tyrosine per minute from substrate casein at 40℃ and pH 10.5 under the conditions of the test.
Recommended dosage is 50-100g/t with 50000 U/g in complete feed.

Conclusion of Keratinase
On the basis of these results, it is concluded that the supplement of keratinase into a low CP diet was as effective as normal level in broiler. As shown in diagram 1, keratinase improve the digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, crude fat, general energy and apparent metabolic energy. And in table 4, keratinase has a positive effect on the amino acids digestibility. In this experiment, it is appeared that keratinase improve the growth performance of broiler by increase average diary gain and feed conversion rate.
