EC No Additive Chemical formula, description Species or category of animal Maximum age Minimum content Maximum content Other provisions End of period of authorisation Units of activity/kg of complete feedingstuff Enzymes E 1603 Endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase EC 3.2.1.6 Preparation of endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Aspergillus aculeatus (CBS 589.94) having a minimum activity of: coated form: 50 FBG (1)/g liquid form: 120 FBG/ml Chickens for fattening — 10 FBG — 1. In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, indicate the storage temperature, storage life, and stability to pelleting 2. Recommended dose per kg of complete feedingstuff: 15-20 FBG 3. For use in compound feed rich in non-starch polysaccharides (mainly beta-glucans), e.g. containing more than 60 % vegetable ingredients (maize, lupin, wheat, barley, soya, rice, oilseed rape or peas) Without a time limit (1) 1 FBG is the amount of enzyme which liberates 1 micromole of reducing sugars (glucose equivalents) from barley beta-glucan per minute at pH 5,0 and 30 oC.
