ISSUE FOCUS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE May 2024 29 compared to the use of other types of commercially available emulsifiers at higher dosages. META-ANALYSIS AS COSTS SAVER: EXCENTIAL ENERGY PLUS VS CONTROL Thanks to the improvement of energy efficiency, nutritional emulsifiers enable nutritionists to formulate diets with energy-reduced levels. This feed reformulation is highly related to the initial feed, taking into account the fat sources and the total crude fat (from oils, animal fats and cereals). Therefore, a third meta-analysis has been conducted to review the impact of Excential Energy Plus on broiler performance and feed costs when applied with an energy reformulation strategy. For that purpose, a last systematic review of scientific and commercial trials has been carried out, selecting specific studies answering the following criteria: • Performed in broilers; • Includes detailed information on the feed formulation and nutrient analysis; • Assess the effect of Excential Energy Plus as feed costs saver (reformulation); • Includes a positive control with a basal diet and a negative control with reduced energy levels; • Contains data on the growth performance, feed intake and feed efficiency of the birds; • Performed before the end of 2023. (Table 3) The same performance parameters as in the previous meta-analysis, for both treatments, were compiled. Those results were compiled for each study according EXCENTIAL ENERGY PLUS • Nutritional emulsifier • Improves fat and energy digestibility • Optimal HLB • Efficient in various types of diets • Effectively saving feed cost Engineering your feed solutions www.orffa.com - Follow us on Excential Energy Plus is the game changer for me!
