Optimising nutrient absorption in broiler diets

Modern animal production is constantly facing the contradiction of raising animals with high quality feed on the one hand and at the lowest possible cost on the other. To achieve this, lysolecithin is added to feed in order to promote the absorption of nutrients, particularly the absorption of the dietary lipids. Upon ingestion, dietary lipids are first released from the feed matrix and emulsified through the motility of the stomach. This primary emulsion then enters the small intestine where i
