Encapsulated Phytase Produced by Recombinant Yarrowia lipolytica Exhibits High Efficiency on Quails at Low Doses

(1) The study using the quails of the Manchurian golden breed was aimed at the efficacy of the food supplement based on micro-incapsulated phytase of Obessumbacterium proteus in the recombinant yeast producer Yarrowia lipolytica at a dose of 500 FYT/kg of the feed. (2) The effect of the supplement in the poultry diets on the productivity of young and adult quails was assayed; (3) It was found that the keeping the quails on the diets using the microencapsulated phytase O. proteus provided the highest live weight, the highest intensity of egg production, and the slaughter yield of animals, the lowest feed conversion compared to those in control groups and the groups getting a commercial phytase supplement based on Aspergillus ficuum. Taken together the data obtained in our experiments indicate a high degree of assimilation of phytate-containing products by the quails when using the encapsulated phytase compared to both the control and commercial preparation of phytase of the PhyA class. It can be concluded that it is a highly expedient and promising supplement based on the microencapsulated phytase of class D for feeding, which shows the best kinetic features compared to the phytases of PhyA and PhyC classes when working in the chyme of the poultry.
