Also in Crayfish: How Phytase Inclusion Avoids Phytic Acid Effects on Hepatopancreas Enzymes of Redclaw Cherax quadricarinatus

Figure 2

Released amino acids (as mg eq. Tyr/g substrate in DM) after four hours in vitro digestive incubation of Cherax quadricarinatus (n = 3). Means without a common uppercase differ for % of phytic acid (PA). Means without a common lowercase differ for phytase doses (in PU/kg DM). ANOVA values: (PA); (phytase); (interaction PA × phytase). PA fitted to a linear regression (; R2 = 0.1365). Phytase fitted to a quadratic regression (; R2 = 0.6596). AA, amino acids; DM, dry matter; PU, phytase units. Values are expressed as means ± SD.
