Axtra® XAP is a multi-enzyme developed by IFF Danisco Animal Nutrition & Health for use in animal nutrition. This enzyme effectively breaks down arabinoxylans, proteins, and starches found in both plant- and animal-based feed ingredients, enabling the digestion of otherwise indigestible nutrients. As a result, it aims to improve nutrient utilization and enhance overall animal performance.
Key Benefits
• Reduction of Anti-Nutritional Effects
Axtra® XAP rapidly breaks down both soluble and insoluble arabinoxylans, minimizing their negative impact on nutrient absorption during the digestive process.
• Enhanced Nutrient Utilization
With its protease and amylase components, it improves the digestibility of proteins, amino acids, and starch—supporting animal growth and development while enabling more sustainable and cost-effective feeding.
• Gut Health Support
By improving nutrient absorption, it reduces the amount of undigested material reaching the large intestine, leaving fewer nutrients available for pathogenic microorganisms.
• Sustainability and Environmental Benefit
Better nutrient digestibility lowers the excretion of undigested nutrients, reducing the environmental impact of manure.
• High Thermal Stability
Axtra® XAP demonstrates superior heat stability across a wide range of pelleting temperatures, outperforming many other commercial enzymes.
Application:
Axtra® XAP is suitable for broilers, layers, breeders, turkeys, ducks, and other poultry species. This wide range of application aims to improve nutrient absorption and performance across different animal species.

Instructions for Use:
The dosage of Axtra® XAP may vary depending on animal species, age, and feed formulation. We recommend consulting your regional manager for proper dosing and application methods.
Conclusion:
Thanks to its unique enzyme composition, Axtra® XAP enables the formulation of cost-effective diets using a variety of ingredients and alternative raw materials.
Our innovative nutritional solution improves energy efficiency and enhances animal performance in both corn-based and mixed-grain diets, helping to reduce feed costs.
By maximizing the digestion of otherwise indigestible nutrients, it supports better performance and greater flock uniformity.
