ABSTRACT Enzyme-supplemented diets can influence the intestinal microbiome in an intricate interplay with the immune system. Therefore, the effects of β-mannanase supplementation in metabolizable energy (ME)-reduced diets containing xylanase were investigated on cytokine concentrations and fecal microbiota profile in lactating sows (n = 60, 248.4 ± 2.4 kg) assigned to a randomized block design with three dietary treatments: a diet containing xylanase (Control; reduction of 40 kcal of ME/kg, CD40), CD40 + β-mannanase (0.3 g/kg) and a reduction of 45 […]
Keywords: anti-inflammatory cytokines; carbohydrases; energy reduction; exogenous enzymes; fecal microbiota; lactating sows

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the supplementation of two xylanases in the diet of meat-type quail on performance, morphology of the intestinal mucosa, metabolization of nutrients, and carcass yield. The experimental design was a completely randomized 2×3+1 factorial arrangement [two metabolisable energy reductions (70 and 140 kcal/kg), with or without the inclusion of two xylanases (A and B), plus a control treatment without xylanase), totalling seven treatments with five replicates and 42 quail […]
